I wonder if anyone on the list might know anything about Kloof St Police Station. My grandfather Wilfred Martin WEBBER went to Cape Town from Penzance, Cornwall, England, in 1902 to join the police force there. Sadly he was only there two weeks when he died in July 1902. He was a constable at Kloof St Police Station. He is buried in SA near Table Mountain. I would love any information about the police station and the area that might be relevant, thank you, Cathy
Hello Cathy Have you obtained the death notice from the National Archives on Wilfred Webber ? DEPOT KAB SOURCE MOOC TYPE LEER VOLUME_NO 6/9/455 SYSTEM 01 REFERENCE 2431 PART 1 DESCRIPTION WEBBER, WILFRED MARTIN. DEATH NOTICE. STARTING 19020000 ENDING 19020000 The head office for Familytree.co.za is just around the corner from Kloof Street and sadly I know little about this police station. I don't think that they could help you in anyway. I suggest that you write to: South African Police Force Museum Carries records of all ex-policeman in South African from 1900 - 1972. Tel: 012-3536190 E-mail: sapsmuseum@saps.org.za Kloof Street however is one of the trendiest places in Cape Town to eat and be seen. kind regards Heather Visit South Africa's premier Genealogy + Family History Web sites : www.familytree.co.za <http://www.familytree.co.za> + www.ancestry.mweb.co.za <http://www.ancestry.mweb.co.za> -----Original Message----- From: CathyCripp@aol.com [mailto:CathyCripp@aol.com] Sent: 28 March 2005 01:19 PM To: SOUTH-AFRICA-CAPE-TOWN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [South-Africa-Cape-Town] Kloof St Police Station?
