Hello Savy,
With regard to Clare Steenkamp (nee Brightwell) her husband's name was Peter. Clare was born about 1914-1915 but I am sorry I do not know if she had children.
I found out my information when a researcher in South Africa found lots of items in the Archives. eg, Wills, death notices and marriage contracts. Just in case you are interested, her name is Tessa King-- tessking@mweb.co.za

Thank you for your interest,
Dovecote
