Hi Researchers, I'm looking for more information on the McCallums. George Thomas was born in Cape Town in Nov 24, 1867. He was the son of Alexander (Wallace) McCallum born April 7, 1829 and Christina Frances Helena Heintjies born in Germany, in 1844. They were married April 23, 1860 in Cape Town. They went on to have 12 children. What became of Who did Alexander Wallace born 18 Nov 1862, marry? Frederika Margaret Christina born 14 Aug 1869 Peter Christin born 25 Dec 1875 Henry born 1873 William Henry born 11 Oct 1877 Mary born 1879 The rest I can account for, but what happened to the above children?? Alexander died 21 July 1891. 1. What became of Christina? 2. Did she change her name to Grace? 3. Did she marry a 'Livingstone' 4. Did she own a 'bar'? 5. Was Alexander's second name Wallace? 6. What of Alexander's parents Samuel and Mary? 7. Did they immigrate? 8. What was Mary's maiden name? Please, please does anyone know this family? I have had lotsof promised leads, but no follow-throughs. There has been lots said about what happened, but what really happened? Regards Michele Shaw --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
