I found this today  :) .. according to https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.2.1/9NT2-5W3

Their daughter Margaret Angela Graham died in the Belgian Congo in c1940

I wonder what she was doing there in 1940? and I wonder if any records exist for the Belgian Congo... and if so how would one access them??

South Africa / Looking for Descendants of Robert GRAHAM and Catharina van der KEMP

Robert Graham was born in Nova Scotia c1836 He was a Saddle and harness maker. He came to SA before 1856 when he married Catharina van der Kemp in Uitenhage. Their children were Robert Graham; Diderik (Dirk or Dick) Graham; Clement Graham; William Graham; Theodorus Graham; Susan Graham; Margaret Graham and Charles Graham.

Robert died in 1881 in Kimberley hospital as a prisoner... :o

Catharina was the granddaughter of controversial missionary Johannes Theodorus van der Kemp.

Dirk/Dick may have been the D.Graham involved with the smelting of gold for the Veldpond at Pilgrims rest.

I am descended from Charles Graham, and would love to make contact with my cousins...

Any help would be greatly appreciated..
Donovan
