I'll second the free request.  I have a specific relative I am trying to trace in SA and apparently there are several people in SA with the same name, so I don't want to be paying to look at the wrong person.

Have you posted a request on RC for you relative?

Several of us can help with SA BMDs & other resources.

I have previously posted a thread re this particular relative, and that is how I found out there are several with the same name.  Without being able to afford certificates or paid lookups it is hard to determine the correct one to follow.
