There are entries for Sarah Ann Field born 1869 married to James Sinclair and for baptism of Ellen Edith Field daughter of Edward Charles and Annie Field.

He was married to Annie (?) and four of their six children Alice Elizabeth, Edward Charles, John William and Harriet Laura were baptised in King Williamstown. I have found no baptism for Sarah Ann who was born in about 1869. In 1881 the family was living in Cape Town and Edward Charles snr was a constable. He died on 4 May 1881 and was buried at St George's on 6 May 1881. Cannot find information on how he came to be in South Africa - did he join the military here or elsewhere? Where was he from? I am trying to find out Annie's maiden name and where she was from. She remarried in 1883. Her death was on 15 July 1915 but, this is unconfirmed. It is possible that she died in Natal as this is where Sarah Ann was married. We have estate files for most of the family members. Any information would be most welcome Regards Elaine ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to SOUTH-AFRICA-EASTERN-CAPE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ----- No virus found in this message.
