Hi Does anyone know what The Hygeias in CapeTown was. Given as a place of death in 1908. Also does anyone have Francois Hendrick (Henri or Henry) Wessels date of birth. I have 1870 no day or month but the death notice is at variance with this. Would appreciate it if someone has a baptismal or birth certificate. Thank you Alison
