Hi ladies!(Westernwombat and anicalouw). I have been following all of the posts on this thread with great interest. My opinion is that Edward is the Eddie noted by his mother on his sibling's birth registration AND the absconder who left his illegitimate child and his mother in the lurch. This is not unusual and he was young! The irony is that he later became a policeman! 😊 Although his brother-in-law (Vera's husband Martheze) was also a policeman. His son and 2 son-in-laws also became policemen.

The occupation:stone mason is probably how he met up with the Cuttings as his father-in-law owned s construction company(dressed stone buildings)
