Nefdt Family South Africa

[Diane Lamble]

Can anyone please help me. My grandmother was Molly Nefdt who married Archibald Cruickshank
I think in the early 1900's in South Africa. I have a birth date for her as 08-08-1881 Cape of Good Hope as this appears on my mothers birth certificate. I am trying to learn more about the family and if any one can help me I would greatly appreciate it.

good luck - by the way - the very bottom named states from United Kingdom ....didn't expect that ..
was Molly a nickname - or was she christened Molly ??

I wonder if this is a brother  of Molly ?- Cape of Good Hope ,South Africa
Dirk Cornelis Nefdt and Maria Magdelena Nefdt have a son Carl Hermanus Nefdt baptised 1904

did Molly name any of her children Dirk / Magdelena / Carl ??

Archibald / Molly have 3 children
1909 St Mary , Johanesberg Transvaal   https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVSH-XPX5
1913 in Transvaal,S A   https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVS4-C88F
1919 same place   https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVS4-CD31
so we know they were married by 1909 
no sons ?...do you know of any more children ??

Thank you so much for taking the time to help me re the Nefdt Family in SA.
The info that I have is from my mother who is turning 91 this year! Her mother was the Molly Nefdt
but she passed away when my mother was 4 years of age so she can't remember much. Her elder sister who was Sarah Agnes brought her and her siblings up. My Mom did have a brother also named Archibald Cruickshank (deceased) a couple of years older than her. There were a total of 6 siblings, three of which are the records of Baptism which you sent to me. We can trace the Cruickshank side because of Scottish records but have never managed to get info on the Nefdt side.
Thanks a mill once again.
