Edward Richard Hallis b1872 ;any children in SA

[brigidmac]

Thanks to a link to.south africa records ive been able  to find some more Hallis records without looking at the documemts themselves
Also some records now available on Ancestry but difficult to search.

Leslie HALLIS divorced first wife in 1937.Johana susan Swart

Died in 1972  survived by spouse maartje marie Hattinger

1902 there was a court case between edward.Richard HALLIS & lillian HALLIS ....HIRD
It was withdrawn

A tree  on ancestry has edwards son Frank edward HALLIS  married to Susette Faith  van De Witt both deceased and with a son.thomas richard b 1945 also deceased but married with a child .

There seem to be  court cases in 1975 + 1981 involving HALLIS ART& GIFT SHOP  sublease to.mrs Benns
And S Swart

Im not sure what illiquid cases are but there are a few of them with unknown Hallis "s

And I wonder if a 1910 entrance MHG Leer TAB ...is a birth .

The person with tree hasnt been on the site for a year but ive left a message anyway.
Id love to pass on the plaque that was presented to Harriet Hallis by girls friendly society on occasion of her marriage in 1885 .
Ive managed to add it to her profile pic but it's wrong format for rootschat

MHG stands for an estate when it is filed with the master of the supreme court in South Africa.

The court case in 1902, the source code  ZTPD was divorce proceedings against Richard brought by Lilian but later withdrawn.

The 1910 file appears to be a letter enquiring about an estate:

The 1942 Estate File for Richard.  If you move through the images, his Will is there as well.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS9G-FNJ4?i=256&cc=2520237&cat=188051

These are all on Family Search, usually my first stop for South African research.

Thanks silly dogs
I use ancestry so I can transfer records directly to my tree

These records are really good I.ll have to get into habit of looking on FS too

The first letter is sad..addressed to a mr A Hallis about deceased son .....not one of ours

I dont know why I thought the court case was against Lillian Hird she was suing her husband 
 she not only dropped the case but went on to have ,3 children with him

You can also upload images to your Ancestry tree from FS if you download them to your computer first then upload them to your tree.   I don't have a sub for Ancestry so it's really the only way I can attach documents to my tree on there.

FS has a very large collection of South African records and more are added all the time.

I believe we have finally found descendants of the South African HALLIS family

[brigidmac]

Update
I have communicated with descendants of
Birkenhead HALLIS

I wanted to pass on a certificate that was awarded to their sister but apparently it's really dodgy posting anything where they livi in south Africa

Thanks again everyone
