Hello Mike Just a quick one - unfortunately you will not be given access to the adoption file unless you are that person. Because it is such a sensitive issue and one does not know what will be found in those documents they are highly restricted. Only the person involved an attorney or a social worker would be given access. Kind regards Heather Heather MacAlister Site Coordinator www.ancestry.mweb.co.za www.familytree.co.za www.stamboom.co.za Learning on Line 46 Hof Street Gardens 8001 Tel: 021-481 8316 -----Original Message----- From: butlerm [mailto:butlerm@mcmaster.ca] Sent: 22 November 2004 11:14 PM To: SOUTH-AFRICA-CAPE-TOWN-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [South-Africa-Cape-Town] Cape Town Archives Good afternoon. I'm not sure what the etiquette for this might be, so please forgive me if I'm going astray. Is it possible that someone out there might be able to look up something in the archives for me? There are two items of interest; I've copied the NAAIRS info out below. I would really appreciate getting copies of whatever information might be available. I'm willing to pay reasonable compensation, or trade some kind of lookup here in Canada. If I've offended, I apologise; otherwise, I look forward to hearing from you. Regards, Mike DEPOT KAB SOURCE MOOC TYPE LEER VOLUME_NO 6/9/1275 SYSTEM 01 REFERENCE 4726 PART 1 DESCRIPTION TWYNAM, LOUIS JAMES. ESTATE PAPERS.
