Hello Listers, Greetings to you from Australia. I am trying to find information about the family of Ada OWEN nee RAPKINS who may also have been known as Ada PEARCE or PIERCE prior to her marriage. Her husband was Frederick OWEN and they moved to South Africa (unfortunately I don't know exactly where) from Victoria, Australia some time around 1917. Her first name was given as Adrienne at the time of Frederick's death, but I don't know the date of his death or of hers. Ada was born in 1876 in Victoria, Australia. Frederick may have been South African by birth. Other associated family names are LAWRENCE, BOSCH, ROSS, NAYLOR, BRILTON, VENTOR, GATT, BROTHERTON, RHYS-LOWES. If any of these names are familiar to anyone, please contact me off-line for further details. Thank you. Julie M. Hopper.
