Arnold family records
« on: Tuesday 03 January 23 19:22 GMT (UK) »
I am researching my late aunts family from Cape town. I've found reference to them on the National archives for south Africa and want to try to see the documents. I have tried emailing but the email keeps bouncing back. Their details are as follows:
Gustav Earnest Arnold died 1944
Violet Angelique ( Bone) Arnold died 1955
I would be grateful for any help.

Are you aware that there are quite a few records for the family on FamilySearch?
https://www.familysearch.org/search/record/results?count=20&q.givenName=Gustave%20earnest&q.recordCountry=South%20Africa&q.surname=arnold

The death notice for Violet Angelique Arnold is followed by numerous and quite detailed estate papers (scroll forward)

Sorry, I can't help with how to email the SA Archives.

Neale1961 thanks for your reply. I had seen some of the records but not realised how many there are on the site and that there were more pages! Thanks so much.
