[She became a widow at a young age and her parents were living with her that is why I an curious if there is a way to see who was living at a given address.]: The house at No. 3 4th Street is a semi-detached, which could have been more suitable, you would live on the one side, and the parents on the other ?. If you go to Google Maps and paste this into the field box and press enter: -26.204876,28.095265 go into "Street View", it is the house with the green towel over the front wall.

Hello Heather: === <<< I am looking for any info on Lilian Sampson WILLIAMS, .... She married William Arthur GARRITY, he worked in the gold mines and they lived in Malvern East. Lilian Sampson GARRITY (nee WILLIAMS) died in 1950 and is buried in Primrose Cemetery. I am coming to South Africa and will be in Johannesburg for just a couple of days and was hoping someone is able to let me know where the location of the actual grave could be. >>> === For the Primrose Cemetery you need the full DoD for a quicker look up. If you only have the year, you will have go through the entire year's entries. If you are not sure of the year, could be a long wait, and if you have the person's full names and no DoD, it won't help at all. I requested photo from Heather which I got, not a good one, but I noticed the grave behind and noticed its sides, and thought this can't be too difficult to find these two types of headstones close to each other. This graveyard is much bigger on the inside than it looks from the outside. Went on my bike, started section by section, going around each section, and to the next section. After about half an hour I was about to go way down to another section area, but then decided to finish one more section on the right. Just as I was about to leave this last section I looked again and saw a black open book headstone, for some reason I had made a mental note that must look for a white one, looked two rows in front, looked different, but there was the other headstone. Went up to the first headstone, and there it was, could also see the other headstone better. Took the photos etc. which have been sent already. To find the grave from the main entrance in Cemetery Rd, come inside and then make your way to about the middle of the grave yard and go all the way right in the direction of the two pylons close to each other which are just outside of the graveyard. Or paste this into Google Maps (In Satellite View) for an approximate location of the grave: -26.193977,28.143075 not an exact co-ord, but the grave will be within metres of this. It is near those trees by the green arrow. Just past the two pylons is Cydonia Rd.
