Cybeleo 13 Dec 2007 / #4Hi There,He lived in South Africa In a town called Bloemfontein. He had brother Bruno. He was married, but my Grandmother did not keep any personal belongings except for a huge book full of sport certificates and old pictures. I went to the local Births and Deaths regisrty, but they had nothing for that timeperiod if you did not own property. I have logged queries like these on the internet and have letters.
