South Africa / Mowbray, Cape Town, South Africa. Birth Records - Hepburn Family
« on: Monday 14 October 13 16:55 BST (UK)  »
I was wondering if anyone has any idea as to birth and possibly marriage records for the Mowbray area of Cape town. I am searching for Isabella Marion Rocheford McGibbon Hepburn, who was born in Mowbray around 1874. I am seeking to find out also about her parents who I have no names for at all. Thank you for reading this message

South Africa / Re: Looking for (Cort) Dunn Family - Rhodesia/Zambia

I saw that but got somewhat daunted, If he died in the Lusaka/Kabwe area which district would that be?
I have googled it but it didn't come up with a name that was on the district list as far as I could see.
Regards

South Africa / Looking for (Cort) Dunn Family - Rhodesia/Zambia
« on: Tuesday 20 September 11 08:42 BST (UK)  »
Is there somewhere that I should look for information, that I haven't thought of so far? My ancestors were in Rhodesia back in the 1950's but because that has all changed now I am a little unsure where else to try.
My GF came to Mazabuka, Southern Zambia about 1924 (I believe) he had a son in 1925 who was christened in Cape Town (records in ancestry 24) then nothing. I know that he died about 1964 and I think was possibly buried in the Lusaka area. I am trying to find his marriage to Doreen Isabel and both their deaths. But Ancestry 24 had no more info, on either of their names. Technically Zambia is not S. Africa so I wondered if I should be looking in another place that I am not aware of at the moment. I have been on the Great Northern Road blog but nothing has come of it. Has anyone any suggestions as to where I should look?
Thanks

New Zealand Completed Requests / Marriage in New Zealand - Help Please
« on: Monday 19 September 11 19:06 BST (UK)  »
I am trying unsuccessfully to trace my GF movements between 1922 and 1926. He left Southampton on 31 Aug 1922 heading for Auckland, New Zealand, on the Ship Ruahine. He may have got married there to a lady whose names are Doreen Isabel. I have tried but not found anything. The next place I have found him is at the baptism of his son in Cape Town Feb 1926. The in between bit I am struggling. Can anyone help please!!

Thank you so much. I looked and got no where. I think I must have put in the info wrong.
