I have recently discovered a 1925 passenger list which shows family members returning to England from S. Africa. (See image). The profession given is "BSA Police". Are there any suggestions for sources of information regarding S. African/ S. Rhodesian police staff or for that matter BMD records from the same country?
All help very welcome.
Thanks

Are the Reacords family to you? I would like to know the full names and maiden name of Helen, if you have it please? The person I am looking for's father was Robert Chalmers. On his death notice his daughter Nellie {nickname?} is noted as having married a Reacord.
I appreciate your response. Thank you! Leona.

No I am sorry but I have no further information regarding Helen Reacord at the moment. I have submitted an enquiry to a website dedicated to the staff of the BSA police but there has been no response.
