Hi Bev Thanks for that ­ check out Facebook as I have found many missing relatives there - or the white and yellow pages of South Africa http://phonebook.yellowpages.co.za Regards Heather From: Bev <[email protected]> Reply-To: <[email protected]> Date: Thursday 23 January 2014 at 8:38 AM To: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [SOUTH-AFRICA] The COAD Twins. Hi Heather, This Edwin Albert does not belong to "our Coads" but I did get the docs and passed them onto the WW Coad Project as I did with all the others from the NASA. What I am hoping the listing does is opens up the two families. The two family members who I have managed to contact, did help but just with names. There must be some grandchildren of the twins that are still alive as they are around my age!!!!!!! Thank you anyway!

I am desperate to find out more about my grandmother Mabel COAD's twin brothers. The family left California in 1895 and arrived in England. My g/grandfather then came straight to SA, and the family followed much later in 1898. For whatever reasons, I know very little about them, except what I have got from NASA and graves!!! I am assuming that most of their children are no longer alive, but just in case have given surnames only. Charles Edwin Coad b 15 Apr 1887 Grass Valley California- died 1 Feb 1965 buried Primrose, Germiston. This family seemed to be based in Germiston. Wife Leah FERGUSON [b 10 Oct 1886 Johannesburg] Children Elizabeth Ellen COAD [b 19 July 1907] married Alfred William EAGER- have all the details Primrose grave Leah COAD [b 2 Feb 1909] married Andrew Boden BOOTH- have all their details but they had a son and a daughter - the daughter married ABRAHAMSE Hannah Elvira COAD [b 26 Jun 1914] married Frederick Evert Potgieter VAN TONDER- they had two sons and a daughter and the daughter married BUCKLAND.Primrose grave Dorothy COAD [b??] married ABRAHAMS Edna COAD [b??] married Leslie Cochran GLOVER and they had a daughter born 1943 whose married name is KAYSER and a son born 1947. Glover died in 1964 and Edna remarried , but divorced in 1973 and she died in 1975. Charles Edwin Coad- Luckily I have found out about him and his family. Primrose grave Frances John COAD b 15 Apr 1887 Grass Valley California- died 13 May 1926 This family seemed to be based around Craighall Park but some moved down to Durban in the later years. Buried Brixton Wife Florence Minnie CROWSEN b 5 Nov 1892 died 20 Apr 1971. Her father was Natter Henry Daniel Theodora CROWSEN and mother's name was Henrietta. Children Florence Ellen COAD married FARREL Lilian Alice Mabel COAD married Andries Daniel VAN WYK Frances Walter John COAD b 1916 died 5 Sep 1959 married Gwendoline Elaine LAIDLEY. They had a son [b abt 1938] and a daughter born 1946 Eunice Mary COAD married COOKE Edith May COAD married GREEN Irene Doris COAD b 8 May 1923 died 20 Jan 1975. Married John Kavanagh MACFARLANE b 1917 East London- died 1962 Sandton. They had daughter born 9 Apr 1947. Irene remarried to Ralph Cecil HEEGER but they were divorced in 1971. The last child, also a daughter was born in 1925 shortly before her father died, and she has helped me with the above. This is a classic example of "girled out"! Any help would be most welcome- as it seems such a shame that they will never know what I know about an extraordinary family.
