There are some pictures of him on Ancestry but these are not currently loading

Dear Mike

Thank you so much for the info....believe it or not...I took that pic of his grave and put it on Ancestry.co.uk. Small world... . Thanks for the other papers, if you are able to find anything I would greatly appreciate it.

HI Mike

I uploaded these pics as well.....they are in my personal collection.

Ilze,

Ancestry does not identify who uploaded the pictures (on that screen at least) so better safe that sorry.

I'm intrigued about your masters in genealogy. Can I ask were you are studying?

Sole entry in WO42 is simply a certificate of birth sadly.

HI David

I am doing a thesis on the Irish in South Africa with my Great-Grandfather as my case study. So really a biographical study but very little work has been done on the influence of the Irish in South Africa. I am doing it through the University of Stellenbosch.
