Can anyone search South African records? I am looking for info on my Grt Grandfather and his parents and siblins etc.

Henry Water Traill was born 1868c in port Elizabeth SA to a unknownTraill (thought to be British) and Eliza Traill formely Joseph who was born in SA (Cape) in 1848c.other children born to Eliza and ?Traill were Jessie and Emily.

Eliza remarried a Abraham Weil between 1870 and 1873. She had 4 children from this marrage between 1872 and 1876 before moving to England.

Eliza had a sister Agnes Joseph born 1858c also in SA.

Would love if anyone could find out any info, I know its a long shot but am a bit stuck.
Thanks
