South Africa / Re: Anglican Church Records on FamilySearch

If she died before the establishment of Statutory death records (1894) you may not find any records. Burial records are few and far between.

That year is not on-line you will need to order it direct from the archive in Cape Town

South Africa / Re: Humansdorp 1850's French community

I dont have any information but looking at the names of  the kids in each family may assist. Families typically named their children after their grandparents - so the eldest son and 2nd eldest daughter were named after the fathers parents and the eldest daughter and 2nd son were named after the mothers parents. So possibly not brothers but probably related

As Namibia was a South Africa Protectorate at the time the information may be in the Cape Town archives, you would need to apply to them to verify that.

Barnet Solomon's grave can be found on a Find a grave - a search on familysearch will give you the link - he was buried in Westpark in the Jewish Section https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/243478653/barnett-solomon

No photos available - cant find an entry for his wife

MArriage of Sarah Jane Webster and John James Sills https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSK8-V95N-S?view=index&personArk=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3A6ZHB-VFQB&action=view

 Given they were married in the Wesleyan Church it is likely their daughter was baptised there - you will probably have to contact the church for her baptism

You can create a login on ancestors.co.za and view those baptisms - she has links to family search films but the one to the Catholid church does not seem to work - i checked the film no and its not availbale online

Given John Clyde's DN does not indicate a birth location and he has not left an estate file I don;t think you will find his birth as he may not have been born in South Africa
