Further to my previous posting, I found this on the Natal's who's who site:
Stuart: John Baptist, Farmer, b 16th August 1862(the six was a bit blurred) in Lower Umkomaas, Alexandra county; son of Thomas Stuart of Glasgow Scotland, married 3 November 1897, Miss Mary Collins: 4 children, Education Hilton, was a Lieut B.M.R. Hobby Shooting, Add Jolivet, No 2 Highflats.
If anyone could add any additional information to this family I would really appreciate it.
Many thanks
Sharleen

Hi Moira
My apologies, I did find the first two but not the third. Can you explain the starting and ending dates to me. In my mind it appears that it took 16 years to finalize his death notice.
I have just found out this morning that the sons of John Baptist Stuart and Ann Mary Collins were as follows:
John Baptiste Stuart who married Engread Orthildia Bergset
Sydney Thomas Stuart who married Ruth Honeybun
Wallace Stuart married ?
Mabel Stuart married ?
I guess I will go back to Naairs to try and find them.
I am also trying to find Daisy Stuart and SL Collins who is listed on the marriage certificate. My feeling is that it is either John Snrs mother or sister, could also be an in law. I was also told today that he supposedly traveled to SA with three brothers. One brother apparently went on to Australia. I will check Naairs for them.
My idea here is that if anyone is looking into this family or connected in any way I would appreciate them contacting me.
Many thank
Sharleen

Hi Moira
Just to add to my note earlier, thank you for reminding me to go back to Naairs. I got the original two documents almost 2 years ago and had forgotten about them. Today I spent most of the day on Naairs plodding through the history of JB Stuart. I can just with dates and the comments on the summary sheet put together a bit of the history of his life. That doesn't help with parents but it does add a bit of color.
I also managed to pick up a death notice for my husbands grandfather, also JB Stuart (jnr) and JB's brother Wallace Dunbar Stuart.
I am going to keep plodding along with this family.
Many thanks
Sharleen
