Belleth, Ceylon Police (1950s) Friends/Colleagues: I'm looking for any help in learning more about R.R. Belleth, a sergeant in the Ceylon Police in the 1950s. I've checked out the meagre resources I have, (a few post-war Ferguson's Directories) and all I've been able to find is a "B. Belleth", listed as a retired member of the Ceylon Civil Service, (and most probably a distinguished one, since he is also listed as having been awarded the Imperial Service Order). Perhaps "B." is the father (or uncle?) of the chappie I'm interested in -- "R.R." ? Am I correct in assuming Belleth is a Burger name? Any thoughts or leads greatly appreciated.
