I’ve noticed that you seem to have South African Roots like me, may I give you some tips for South African research?
When posting questions to G2G that relate to South African profiles or sources use "South_Africa" as one of your tags as this will help researchers particularly interested in South Africa to see your post (do type the underscore).
In South African research we have a few quirks and rules ~ a particular one is to please use the correct Country Naming as was used at the time of the event. Another one is Name fields on profiles. And here's the South African Roots Help page, it's filled with all kinds of delightful South African related tips.
I am here to answer any question you have, no matter how trivial you may think it is. There is no such thing as a silly question. Please add as much information as you can, it all helps to turn a “name” back into a person. I hope you enjoy the site as much as I do.

Here’s a great page to help with resources South African Roots Sources, and maybe you'd like to join the South African Roots Project? There's also the sub-projects: Anglo Boer War 1899-1902, Voortrekkers and Cape of Good Hope.
