Tilbury´s in Pretoria Transvaal
« on: Wednesday 06 October 21 11:07 BST (UK) »
Henry Walter Tilbury and Augusta Elizabeth Saunders had 6 girls; two emigrated to Pretoria.

1) Daisy Ada Tilbury married a Mr. Byrne, she died 1967 in Pretoria Transvaal, S. A.
2) Ivy Maud Tilbury married Basil Kenmuir, they also lived in Pretoria.

Can anyone find out more about the family, any information would help me further?

If you look on Family Search in the South African records, there are a few mentions of both parties.  Marriages, deaths etc.

You will have to register with FS, if you aren't already - no charge.

I would assume she is another sister - Ivy Maud was a witness!
