Hi Elizabeth I would also like to know who you are researching in that areas as a large portion of my tree stayed in these areas Regards Darryl -----Original Message----- From: south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Elspeth Muirhead Sent: 24 October 2012 12:31 AM To: south-africa-eastern-cape@rootsweb.com Subject: [ZA-EC] Tracing farms Komgha & Dordrecht / Indwe districts Hi listers I'm in a hopeless tangle trying to find out more or less which parts of the Eastern Cape my family farmed in - it's suddenly got urgent as I want to do a trip to the Eastern Cape soon. I wonder if someone can explain how to trace the 1891 map of Komgha district (I have a list of the farm numbers and owners from on 2005 thread on this list but need to see whereabouts it is). I am not sure what the boundaries of Komgha district were - my farm is listed under a few below 'near Gonubie River' - for practical purposes is this vague info all I'll get anyway, and if so where does anyone know more or less where this would refer to? I then would like to find out about farms in the Indwe / Dordrecht area in the 1890s. My search of KAB showed farms being transferred from Wodehouse district and Elliot district around 1919. Indwe was very new in 1890 - but where would farms around 1894- 1900 or so be registered? Where and how would I look for this information? Thank you.

Hi Darryl I only know about my Mulligan's (married to a Smith) and a Fitzgerald's in King Williams Town. I see you also have family at Post Retief - I am going there I hope as that is the most definite connection I know of. Mulligan daughters married into the Connellan family and also into the Schrieder family. There is also a connection with the Moorcroft family in Winterberg region. What families are you researching? -----Original Message----- From: south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Darryl Allwright Sent: 24 October 2012 01:21 AM To: south-africa-eastern-cape@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [ZA-EC] Tracing farms Komgha & Dordrecht / Indwe districts Hi Elizabeth I would also like to know who you are researching in that areas as a large portion of my tree stayed in these areas Regards Darryl -----Original Message----- From: south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:south-africa-eastern-cape-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Elspeth Muirhead Sent: 24 October 2012 12:31 AM To: south-africa-eastern-cape@rootsweb.com Subject: [ZA-EC] Tracing farms Komgha & Dordrecht / Indwe districts Hi listers I'm in a hopeless tangle trying to find out more or less which parts of the Eastern Cape my family farmed in - it's suddenly got urgent as I want to do a trip to the Eastern Cape soon.
