Hi Fay My personal experience with the LDS in Bellville was very frustrating and disappointing to say the least. Like you, I also battled for a very long time to get hold of anyone. Eventually I managed to hold of someone almost by accident. The pastor then told me that the LDS centre is only open on a Tuesday night from 7-10 pm. I arrived there on the Tuesday, only to be told that the pastor had his facts wrong and that it was in fact only open on a Wednesday evening at the same times. I was also informed that they have no films there, but that the films needed to be ordered. I then decided that it was a waste of time and effort as GISA in Stellenbosch has most of the SA films there and they are open Monday to Friday from 8:00 till 16:00.

Tuesday, May 2, 1882   BIRTH,- On 30th instant, at Queenstown, the Wife of Mr. J.B. WAKEFORD, of a Daughter.   MARRIED,- On the 20th April, by Special Licence, at Mount Arthur, by the Rev. E.J. WARNER, Thomas Herbert KELLY, third son of E. KELLY, Esq., Burghersdorp, to Frances Catherine DIDCOTT, third daughter of H.E. DIDCOTT, Esq., Queenstown.   Tuesday, May 2, 1882   IN MEMORIAM. The Watchman says:- “The decease of Mr. John Rodger THOMPSON, Resident Magistrate of Maclear, Griqualand East, at the age of 58 years, has lost to this colony one of its sons who has at various times rendered his country good service.  The sad event now chronicled took place at the Maclear Residency on the 12th inst., the primary cause being apoplexy, though doubtless the severe and trying nature of the duties which devolved upon him during the late campaign tended to undermine his health and accelerated his end. The deceased gentlemen was the eldest son of the Rev. W.R. THOMPSON, Minister of the Dutch Reformed Church of Balfour. He served during the Kafir Wars of 1846-50 as Captain of Levies and as an officer of the F.A.M. Police from 1852 to 1862, and was appointed Resident Magistrate at Maclear in 1875, discharging the duties of that office until his death. At the commencement of the late Tembu Pondomise rebellion, it will be remembered Mr. THOMPSON was hemmed in at Chevy Chase with but a handful of men, being after ten days relieved and enabled to reach his own station, where, in command of a small and badly equipped force, he held his own against the enemy until relieved by a force from Dordrecht, which arrived just as the little garrison had spent their ammunition and divided their last stock of provisions, &c., having been attacked three several times on that day alone. On reaching Dordrecht, Mr THOMPSON was compelled to retire from an active part in hostilities, the anxiety consequent upon the arduous duty he had been called upon to perform having told upon his health. He returned to Maclear in May, 1881, to resume his Magisterial duties.  On the 3rd of the present month he started for Mount Fletcher where a periodical court required his presence, returning on the 10th after a long and tiring journey.  As already stated, he passed away on the 12th, having been engaged in his office the whole of the day. The funeral took place on the 15th, being conducted by the Rev. Mr MORRIS (brother-in-law to the deceased), and was attended by all the European and Native residents of the place, by as many officials from other districts as could arrive in time, and by a great many natives from all parts of Maclear district, thus shewing the great respect in which the deceased was held by all classes. As a private individual Mr THOMPSON was ever looked upon as being possessed of many sterling qualities.  He was a true friend, a kind and affectionate husband and father, and a Christian Gentleman. “Requiescat in pace.”   Thursday, May 11, 1882   A SAD case of poisoning has occurred in Port Elizabeth.  Towards the close of March last a package was landed by the Union Boating Company from a sailing vessel.  The package, a small box, had contained sugarcandy, but the sweetmeat had been abstracted and a white powder resembling magnesia substituted.  Mr. SEARLE, the Superintendent of the Company cautioned several persons against tasting it.  Notwithstanding his warning, one of his employes, a Mr WILSON, under the impression it was magnesia, took some of the stuff home and gave it to his wife who, not only took some herself, but administered doses to the children who had been unwell.  Vomitting and other painful symptoms followed, Mrs. WILSON eventually succumbing to what proved to be arsenic...   Tuesday May, 16, 1881 [sic]   Mr. James P. JOHNSTON, son of the Rev. R. JOHNSTON, of the Presbyterian Church, Port Elizabeth, has successfully past his first medical examination at the University, Edinburgh.  He stood seventh on the list out of twenty-five successful candidates.  Mr JOHNSTON was educated at the Grey Institute and matriculated in the Cape University. – Observer.   Notice to Creditors and Debtors. In the Estate of the late Olive Hester BROOKS. ALL Persons claiming to be Creditors in the above Estate are requested to file their Claims at the Office of Messrs W. BROOKS & Co., within Six Weeks of this date;  and Persons indebted are requested to pay the amount indebted within a like time. E.B. JAMES, Executor. Queenstown, April 6, 1882   Thursday, May 18, 1882   BIRTH,- On the 17th May, at Queenstown, the Wife of Mr. Charles OWEN, of a Son. BIRTH,- At Queenstown on the 12th May, 1882, the Wife of Mr. J.G. HELLIER, of a Daughter.   Tuesday May 23, 1881 [sic]   THE EXECUTION AT MALMESBURY- A correspondent sends us (Cape Times) the following report, under date Malmesbury, 11th May:- Jacob SCHIEFER suffered the extreme penalty of the law for the murder of his wife this morning, within the precincts of the gaol.  He was quite composed and spoke respectfully to the people assembled, expressing his hope in the Almighty, and calling God to witness his innocence of the crime laid to his charge.  The drop fell without any unnecessary delay, and in a few seconds life was extinct.  The solemn appeal made by the deceased, and his calm yet firm refutation of guilt, sent a thrill of horror through the assemblage present, and a feeling will always remain of deep regret that the unfortunate man was undefended by any advocate whatever in his trail.   Thursday May 25, 1882   BIRTH,- At Queenstown, on the 21st May, 1882, the Wife of T. NICHOLS, Esq., C.E, of a Daughter.   DIED,- At Queenstown, on Monday, the 22nd May, 1882, Caroline, the beloved Wife of John McINTYRE, aged 31 years and 9 months. J. McINTYRE returns his sincere thanks to all friends for their kind sympathy during his late bereavement.   APOPLEXY.- We regret exceedingly to learn that between 7 and 8 o’clock on Wednesday evening last, 17th, our old and esteemed fellow townsman, Mr. G.F. BLACKBEARD, was suddenly seized with a fit of apoplexy, and although skilful medical attendance was immediately called in, we hear this morning that he is still lying in a very precarious state indeed.  2 30 p.m. – We have just learnt that the poor old gentleman has succumbed to the severity of the attack.- [Mr. BLACKBEARD was father of Mr BLACKBEARD of this town to whom we tender our sympathy in his great bereavement. – Ed Free Press.]   Tuesday, May 30, 1882   DIED,- At Queenstown, on May the 24th, Arthur Gillespie, youngest son of George STIRTON, Senr., aged 9 years and 24 days.   DISAPPEARANCE OF MR TOM CARTER.- We learn that Mr CARTER who was suffering from a severe form of illness, left the Hospital in Queenstown.  Mr CARTER who has been missing since Sunday, 21st inst., and was in a very weak state, was dressed in a blue jacket, grey trowsers, and Tam O’Shanter cap.  He is about 5 feet 7 in in height, and wears a very long brown beard.  He was last seen on Sunday night at the cross roads, (Ashby Manor)  Any information from persons travelling who may have noticed anyone similar, will be gladly received by the Resident Magistrate or Mr. A.W. SOLE.  Telegrams have been sent to East London, Aliwal North, and Jamestown, but nothing has been heard of him there.  On Thursday, Friday, and Sunday search parties went out but with out success, and today a party of 20 natives has been engaged for three days, a reward of £10 being offered to the finder of the unfortunate gentleman.  Rewards have also been offered all along the line of the railway extension.  We purposely refrain from making any comment on the matter as we are given to understand that the Hospital Committee will make every enquiry on the subject.

Thank you for the regular newspaper reports both the 19th and 21st century, but does anyone have anything for 1941 June? PHILIP EDMUND KELLAND committed suicide and I wondered if there was some sort of obit. I don't have the exact date cos I'm not at home this week! But it was June 1941. Also wondering if anyone knew brothers CYRIL & WILSON CROSSLEY from East London or in years past Butterworth. Their wives were MILLY and 'TIPPY'. I think Milly died some years back but don't know about TIPPY and have never known her proper name! WILSON was my mother-in-laws twin! I know Milly and Tippy used to go to Keam Street Church of Christ in East London cos I found their names on the prayer lists a few times! But is TIPPy still alive? Hope someone can help!
