[‘n Uittreksel, ietwat geredigeer, uit ‘n epos wat Isabel Groesbeek, bekende genealogiese navorser, aan die SA Genealogiese Gespreksgroep gerig het - Red.]

We are their family

Carol Beneke

Researching a family of which I knew nothing led me to the middle of an overarching family.

My parents would not tell me anything about my father’s family.   Questions went unanswered.  The Stewarts were a secret.  So I grew curious.  All I gleaned was that my father had a sister who had passed away before he was even born.  I knew my father was born in Uniondale.  I knew that when his father passed away his mother moved the small family to Oudtshoorn. And my mother said her mother-in-law was a difficult old lady.
