Hi Carl,
My grandmother was Mary Kathleen Van Blerk, She married Reginald Richard Willan. They had 3 daughters (Barbara, Yvonne (Noreen), and Shirley) and one son, Reginald.
My daughter, Robynne Coleen Tennant, has also been trying to put together a family genealogy. She is living in Wimbledon, London. Her email address is robynnet@gmail.com if you would like to contact her for the information that she has managed to gather.
Best regards,
Dorothy
Dear Dorothy,
A photo of Niklaas van Blerk was posted on Geni.com and is said to originate from the van Blerk website. He had died, however, before 1760 and hence I don’t think it is a photo of Niklaas van Blerk, as photography to produce a photo like that, was only invented 100 years later.
It must be somebody else.
I hope it helps.
Rgds,
Peter
