hello alf
i am just starting to research my SA relatives - i am a descendent of Mary Enright whose daughter Annie married William J Falk and is the mother of these Falk family members.  i would love to get information about whether any of the children married and had children.  Carrie mentions foster sisters Mollie and Lucy Jones in memorial notices for William.  There is also reference to Ernest having a child Joan Mary but i cant find a marriage certificate.  Hopefully you are still active.  thank you

((Ok this is interesting an Obituary with a place of birth Sweden and a different middle name but naming A.B.Falk as his daughter, A.Edwards as his wife and E.J.Falk as his son))
