Hi Elaine
If your relatives kept their British Passports and are not South African citizens you could try searching consular records.

You will find them on findmypast .com

Hi Ann

Thanks so much for looking. All these events are quite recent history as I am only trying to find BMD's for my cousins and descendants.

Can anyone else help? or point me in the right direction where I can do this myself? I also have membership to Ancestry but can't seem to get the info I am looking for.

Many thanks and really appreciate any help. The Genealogy community is really good when you get stuck!

Regards - Elaine

Hi Ann

Thanks so much for your help. I do have some approximate and some exact dates for some members of the family. I am only going back at most 3 generations as all my cousins (12 in total emigrated to South Africa from the UK in 1957). They have since married and had children since being in SA.

Head of the Family was: Stanley Prince (b. 3 Oct 1917 in UK)
death date required
Wife: Ivy May Prince (b. 16 Apr 1916 in UK)
death date required

Lawrence William Prince (b. Oct 1939)
Anthony Prince (b. Mar 1942)
Richard S Prince (b. Jul 1943) died in SA ???
Christopher Charles Prince (b. Jan 1945) died in SA ???
Timothy John Prince (b. Feb 1946) died in SA ???
Roger Duncan Prince (b. Dec 1946) died in SA approx, 1957
Peter Andrew Prince (b. Nov 1947)
Sally Hilary Ann Prince (b. Sep 1948)
Jennifer A Prince (b. Dec 1949)
Penelope Jane Prince (b. Feb 1951)
Nicholas Ewen Prince (b. Nov 1952)
Judith Mary Prince (b. Apr 1954)
They were all born in the UK

John Gray (b. 1949 in Pietermaritzburg, SA)
Fiona Gray (b. 1983 in Pietermaritzburg, SA)
Sarah Gray (b. 1981 in Pietermaritzburg, SA)
No exact dates for the 3 above - does this help? Thanks again so much for helping me unravel this mystery.

Regards - Elaine
