Mackenzies from Durban

[Fransmoi]

My gt gt grandfather being widowed in London headed for the gold fileds in South Africa .He married Annie Maude Cornwell a widow born Miss Butler.
She was widowed again when he got lung disease and died in Matjesfontein in 1890.

Their son DOUGLAS ALEXANDER MACKENZIE born 1899 at Barberton became a bank manager with the Standard Bank and had postings in various towns before settling in Durban where he died aged 63 and 11 months at home in 101 Northway on 7 May 1953.
His widow  Elise Hilda Snowdon   died in Zoutpansberg in Jan 1960.

From his death notice I have found his children and some grandchildren. I'd be delighted to make contact with this family. Douglas visited us about 1930 at Castle Heather ,Inverness if that jogs a memory.



We share the same ancestors - I am the daughter of Errington Ross,Inverness and long to meet them.
