Martin Henry Jay Griffith

[rbjay]

I'm looking for any descendants of Martin Henry Jay Griffith.  He was born in France in 1893, son of Harry Jay Griffith & Caroline Troubridge.  He married Grace M. Preston in Brentford, Middlesex, England in 1915.  They had a daughter Mary.  The family emigrated to South Africa in 1920, departing Southampton and landing in Durban.

Hi Bridget,

The NAAIRS system references the following files :

VAB MHG
Ref 27624
GRIFFITH, Harry Martin, Spouse : Grace Mary nee PRESTON
1936

The file is held at the archives in Bloemfontein and the reference suggests that he died in the 1936 and went under the name of Harry in South Africa.  There are instructions in a topic listed at the top of the forum about how you could go about ordering images from the file through eGGSA.  There are a number of useful documents in such files, including the death notice on which children would be detailed.

best wishes
