Judith Report 5 Aug 2009 21:14

I am trying to find my Mother's family, she was Sophia Elizabeth Baker nee Earle born in the orange free state, at Zastron or Jaggersfontein in or about 1920, her sisters were Mirriam Krause nee Earle, Gillie Penny nee Earle, Margaret Wakeford nee Earle, Jouie Venter nee Earle, she had 4 more sisters but I do not remember their names. Their parents (my grandparents) were married at Koffiefontein and their Mothers maiden name was Jacobs I think. Mirriam was married to Frank Krause, her children were Dennis, Yvonne, David and Leon Krause. Gillie was married to Phillip Penny, their children were Lance, John, and I think Veronica. Margaret was married to Raymond Wakeford, their children were Margaret, Catherine, and Earle (a son) ,. My grand parents are buried in Kitwe Zambia, and most of the people mentioned lived there in the 40's and early 50's.


My Mother Sophia Elizabeth Baker nee Earle and later Mrs Paul died in the year 2000 in East London South Africa

Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
