My great uncle D'Arcy Julius Langner DID NOT style himself as Julian Langner, LA 1915!
D'Arcy Langner was my paternal grandmother, Lilian Langner's younger brother.
My grandmother married Louis Edmund Benjamin in Bevis Marks in January 1913 and left the following month for Cape Town, South Africa, where my grandfather was a KC and later a High Court Judge.
D'Arcy arrived in Cape Town in November 1914 (see record of voyage). He and his wife Gladys 'Bobs' Day visited regularly until the late 50's when he died. They had no children.
I have a good deal of Langner and Benjamin information but would like any details I can obtain on D'Arcy's mother Jane Jael Harriet Langner (nee Benjamin) who is an ancestor on both my Langner and Benjamin side.
If you would like any pictures or official docs on this matter, I have them ready but was unable to attach. Please explain how to attach if you would like these documents.
