I have looked on the map find it just the other side of SOWETO but it looks like barren, unoccupied land. Please help. Did Beaufort West exist in 1874 if not what would I put as place of death? And would it be Cape of Good hope OR cape colony? I have no idea when South Africa changed from Cape of Good hope to Cape Colony to Cape Province, to Eastern/Western Cape. Would someone kindly enlighten me? Thanks as always, Lucky --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
