cecil coombs of capetown
Hi
Anyone out there come across a cecil coombs, son of Henry.Killed in Capetown when he was night watchman at a factory, made the Rand Daily mail in september 1947. The only other information I have is that he lived above a bank on George street and was married but probably had no children. He is the possible key to a puzzle, can get the line back in England back to 1800 but grandad Henrys Coombs children, of which Cecil was one, are a mystery.Anyone out there know where the archives of the Rand Daily Mail are and if they are accessible on the net?
Am just a lowly Brit so I am struggling with the South African end of things.
