Why where Caroline Brown and Albertus Ouwenkamp are buried elsewhere in West Park? Is there an easy way to locate their graves?
Riaan, my cousin was not cremated. He was buried in Alberton where his father lived at that time.
Thanks Adele,
Do you know which cemetery in Alberton/ The register in Braamfontein crem is not very clear on where he was interred, the entry is somewhat strange and I was never able to follow up on it.
Thelma was buried in Orkney, where she was from, she was a new student in the school that year.
