searching for my mother
« on: Friday 06 November 09 08:52 UTC (UK) »
hi
my mother was born in kulp river in 1904 and came to england after her marriage...she died in child birth in 1933 when i was 2 but because my father abandoned the family i was raised in an orphange and never found out any more about her family or history. I am trying to do that now and any help would be really appreciated.
her name was lilian jane green and her fathers name was walter george green and her mother was alice osborne.... klip river, ladysmith, natal, south africa her place of birth... if anyone can help me find out anything about the family i would love it.
i am going to capetown to visit next week and although i cant make it onto natal i wonder if anyone knows where i could look for national information in capetown maybe
thankyou

Hello kaz24, and welcome to RootsChat,

Take a look at this posting on the South Africa board, it contains several links to sites for searching in SA http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,26246.0.html

Maybe one of the moderators will move this post to the SA board for you where you will get more help.

Happy hunting
