Le Roux, South Africa, 1680-1844
I am trying to trace my Huguenot ancestry in South Africa as well as possible second cousins. In particular, I would like to fill the gap between 1680 and 1844 and find out which of the original two immigrant Le Roux families I am descended from.
My grandfather was Frederick Louis Le Roux, born
5-Feb-1882 in Somerset East, who was a Transvaal and Springbok cricket player and died in 1963. He had at least two brothers, Duggie (a professional boxer) and 'Spider' (presumably not his real name!).
My Great-grandfather was Thomas Gerhardus Le Roux born 31-May-1844, who married Rosina Amelia Meyer on 2-Dec-1879, at Rondebosch.
My Great-Great-grandfather was Gerhardus Johannes Le Roes (the spelling was changed some time during the 1700's), married to Eliza Sarah Frederica ?
Any information would be gratefully received.
