South Africa / Stannard - South Africa
« on: Sunday 13 November 11 08:17 GMT (UK)  »
My grandfather Herbert Frederick Stannard was born in U.K. then moved to South Africa. He is buried in the Pretoria East cemetary in the Church of England section.  Need someone to read details on tombstone.  His father, also Bert, is buried somewhere in the Cape Province of South Africa.  Would appreciate help reading his tombstone.

South Africa / Marianne Bartlett Bowie - Bloemfontein SA

My grandmother Marianne Bowie nee Bartlett  died in Bloemfontein in 1928 and I presume she's buried in the Church of England section of the old Bloemfontein Cemetary.  Her husband was Ritchie Taylor Bowie and her son was Norman James Bowie (my father).  I believe Marianne also had a daughter.  Would love to know her name as well as any other relatives she might have had.

Other Countries / Povall/Williams graves Broken Hill Zambia
« on: Sunday 13 November 11 08:06 GMT (UK)  »
John William Povall married Rosina Williams in 1885 in Cardiff Wales.  They had 10 children, some born in England, others born in South Africa.  On their marriage certificate John's occupation is listed as Sailor.  They came to South Africa around 1898.    John's brother Frederick Charles Povall was a farmer in South Africa but I think they all moved to the Copper Belt in Zambia, which was then called Northern Rhodesia.  There must be several Povalls buried in the Broken Hill cemetary.   Can anyone please take photos for me?
