I have a copy - think it's long out of print.

There is a James Donaldson listed (30), farm servant, with wife Catherine (31) and children Alexander (10) William (7) Jane (1) Margaret (1) and James (inf) who sailed on the Sedgemoor, which left Southampton 16 May 1861 and arrived Table Bay 23 July. The infant James died on the 19 July. The family were travelling to a Mr. CLOETE at Newlands. The family later re-emigrated from the Cape to New Zealand in 1864 on board the Eveline
Chandler (Kent), Philbrook (Essex), Blacklock and McKenzie (London), Poynton (Leicestershire), Sinclair (Caithness) Ross and Mather (Sutherland)
1820 Settlers to South Africa (James' Party)

I had hoped to get a copy but if it's not available I wonder if I may ask you to look up the following?

1. Ludfords, especially Elsie Ludford who died Ndola Zambia in 1969 (arrived Port Elizabeth)
2. Donnelly (Cape Town arrival)
3. Teek (Cape Town arrival) - looking for departure from SA or death of Mrs Teek some time after 1954)

Any help would be most appreciated.
