about my family
I had two step granddads.nobody ever talked about the first dads.on my fathers side I had met some of my grannies family when I wa a child.I never even knew my grannies names until recently and I am now 66 .to confound it all in 1900 the northern part of south africa was at war with great brittain and out of a small population thousand died or were displaced,
My mother always told us that she was a decendant of the voortrekker leader andries pretorius and I found her dads name as marthinus hermanus pretorius d 1935 brixton gyard.but tracing him further back has led nowhere.
On my fathers side I discovered my granny had been married three times, she was widowed twice but so far that is what I know.first bisschoff,,then willem johannes jacobus smit but that is how far I could go,the last husband was johannes christiaan smit.I know she had brother lambert vos a farmer I the swartruggens area north west province south africa in about 1958 ,she also had a sister who was married to a mr mc or mac donald ,also a cattle farmer in that area.
