« on: Friday 10 June 11 10:43 BST (UK)  »
Does any one have any information about Madge Williams  born Chapman in 1913 in  most likely Johannesburg. I would like to find her estate file but have had no luck tracing it.She was still alive in 1972. Had hoped to find addresses for her Children George Walter Taylor and Jean Madge Taylor.

 She marries (1st)  George Hodgson Taylor who dies 1953 .Address at time 2810 Marine Drive ,Brighton Beach Durban.I have his estate file.
 She remarries in 1957 a Henry Pilkington Williams who dies 1972 ( i have his estate file) .They lived at Moth Cottage Moth Sound Witbank. She moves to Johannesburg after his death in  and lived at 33 Dorchester Mansions  Rissik Street  Johannesburg.No idea what happened next.

Any information would be a help.

South Africa / Travelling back to England
« on: Saturday 04 June 11 18:05 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Louisa Margaret Taylor b 1871 yorkshire travels back between 1915 and 1918 --possible  from Johannesburg --  to Middlesbrough . We think she comes back alone leaving husband George Taylor b 1869 and son George Hodgson b 1908  in SA and then returns herself to SA. She dies in the transval in 1922 so this would have only been  a short visit .

have not managed to find details of her on any ships lists and would be grateful for help in locating her.

Many Thanks

Agatha Bessie Taylor aged 23 of 19 Cadogan street Middlesbrough died from a revolver wound to the head accidentally inflicted by herself on 30/11/1918. An inquest was held on 2/12/1918 . The death  was then registered on 3/12/1918.In the Times on 2/12/1918 it said Mrs Taylor ,wife of Lieutenant Taylor( he was RAF) was examining a revolver belonging to her husband when it went off .(Her husband dies in 1965.)
I would like to get a copy of the report of the inquest but not sure how to proceed. Grateful for any help or more information on the case.

« on: Saturday 16 April 11 07:53 BST (UK)  »
I would like to find the estate file of Madge Natalie Taylor nee Chapman.

Thanks to Derek I obtained her husbands  file  (Nab source Msce,01,Leer Vol o ref 2585/1953 George Hodgson Taylor  born 1908 Johannesburg dies 1953).

 But despite a joint will and various papers  in the file nothing about her death . No idea when she died. At the time of her husbands death, their 2 children were minors(George Walter and Madge Jean but don't know when born) Have looked on Naairs but drawn a blank. Wonder if she remarried.?
Any help in tracking down a ref for her file or any other information would be appreciated.
Many thanks.

« on: Monday 28 March 11 08:51 BST (UK)  »
Frederick Ambrose Taylor was born in Yorkshire ,England in 1896. He lived in South Africa until  around 1917 when he moved to England to take part in WW1 . He lived with his Parents George and Louisa Taylor and brother George (born 1908 in South Africa) at 124 Railway Cottages,Newtown Johannesburg. Family stories say he had  a wife and child. But when he remarried in England in the early1920 s he describes himself as a widower.

I would like to find details of his marriage etc in South Africa and grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
