Hello, Does anyone know where I might find information / photographs about Nursing Homes in Johannesburg which may have existed c. 1944? On his death notice my great grandfather is listed as having died in CARLINGTON NURSING HOME, JHB. However a search for that place on Google brings up no results, there is only a possible link to a Carrington Nursing Home, so I'm trying to verify whether Carlington actually existed, or whether there was a spelling error on the death notice. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, Leeanne

See if anyone has access to old 'Brabys' type directories. Sometimes found in Archives.
