Completed thankyou. Help needed to trace James A Walsh in S/A
« on: Thursday 12 March 09 23:59 GMT (UK) »
Hi ,
Im trying to find out about James Atkinson or Akison Walsh born 1906 to Thomas and Annie Walsh in the uk but went onto South Africa to reside at 10/12 Norwood Grove where my grt grt aunt  Isabella E Walsh was born in 1895,James went gold mining but was told he passed away in Cape Town so is there any chance you could do a search for me to find out.
Thank You so much

hi there,
If you search the NAAIRS ( see sticky at the top) you will see there is a death in 1964 for James Atkinson Walsh in the Transvall estates section. You can apply for details of this via the eggsa site ( see sticky obtaining death notices)
This should help you.

Hi Linda

At the top of the board there are topics with "pins" in them so that they never move from their position.  They are stuck there hence sticky topics! ;D ;D  Well thats what I think sticky topics means......
