Wingards in South Africa
I am researching the wingard family in South Africa.My father was Stephen Michael Wingard, my Brother is Daniel William Wingard.Apparently my father's grandfather (WingÄrd) came to South Africa as a wale hunter and, due to illnes had to go ashore at Cape Town circa 1850, where he married and settled.Does anybody have any information about either American or Scandinavian Wingards who came to South Africa during the past two hundred years?
Appreciate your help.
