I wondered if anyone could do a look up for me on the following. I have the basic search result from findmypast passenger lists, but do not have a subscription to view the images or transcript. Hopefully someone can help me out?
Brothers Harold S Bune b1889 and Stewart H Bune b 1890 sailed from London in 1903 to South Africa (Port Natal). Also travelling on a 1903 sailing to Durban (Port Natal) from Southampton is an M Bune (Female b 1876). If possible I would like more information on who the boys are travelling with and also more info on this M Bune.
The boys are the sons of Henry Fenton (or Penton) Bune and Edith Mary Bune . Neither parent seems to be on same sailing but I think they may have already been in South Africa. Henry was working in 1891 as a Hosiery Manager in England and by 1901 both he & Edith seem to have disappeared from the UK. The boys however are at boarding school in England.
Sure - will look it up for you - just give me a moment.

The M Bune is not on the same ship as they are - Harold & Stewart are on the "Inkosi" departing London (no date given) and she is on the "German" departing Southampton on 31 January 1903. She is single and a domestic - there is no further information.
The brothers ship details as follows: Ship: INKOSI Official Number: Master's name: Chas Stuart Steamship Line: Aberdeen Line Of Direct Steamers Where bound: Durban (Port Natal), South Africa Square feet: Registered tonnage: 2266 Passengers on voyage: 77
