Sidney Frederick Abrams

Just got to take a little care on protecting people's on line identity if that is what they wish....

I realist that, but there is the PM option. I have managed to get links to the two "Sidneys", but nothing else. I am still fishing for "anything else".

Before speaking to my friend re her identity, what is the PM option?

Hi Paz

Under each other names on the l/h side of your posts, you will find a small green scroll. If you click on this, it will take you through to the Personal Message service (PMs), see here www.rootschat.com/help/pms.php

The PM service is a good way to exchange personal emails as these are not encouraged on the main open forum to protect people from email abuse such as spam etc.

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to reply but I have only just been able to contact my friend again.   Her name is Anita Eve Abrams (Patmore).   However, she was born in S.Rhodesia and was married there so I doubt there will be any records containing information about her.   Incidentally, I have now been able to find info regarding her brother, Sidney.   He was actually using his mother's name and so was known as Sidney Canham Abrams.  now there only remains to find her other brother, Bruce Walter.

Can you advise me about any good African genealogical sites?

Hi Paz

There is a death showing in South Glamorgan for a Bruce ABRAMMS (birth 23 Aug 1925) in Dec. 1990. Not sure on this as we don't know birth year for Bruce Walter Abramms.

Re South Africa, might be worth looking at board here www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,291.0.html

Hi Monica,

Bruce was born on 1932 in Beitbridge which borders South Africa.

Hi Paz,
Got a letter yesterday from my sister, also a friend of Anita's, asking me to try to help trace Sidney & wife Emma.
Cannot find the surname CANTHAM in FreeBMD (England & Wales) & no Emma Charlotte CANHAM born in England or Wales between 1890 & 1920.
Similar outcome so far for Sidney Frederick ABRAMS.

Hi All

I think, given we have established that there are no likely Scottish connections, this post would be best placed on the general England board. I am going to move it now to that board so hopefully other people may be able to help.
