Notes |
- email:
My great.great.grandparents were members of Willson's party on the "Belle Alliance" - JOSEPH GERALD DONOVAN and SUSANNA..
She was previously married to Samuel Garbett and the daughter of a John Clark. Their daughter "JULIANNA", born in India about 1831 married my great.grandfather "HENRY CORNELIS WHITE" at Smithfield on 20 November 1854. At that time she was living at Bankfontein, Smithfield but to date we no information about "Old Henry" as we call him. He seems to just have dropped in from the sky.
It has taken almost three years to confirm Julianna's identity as "Ben Cillers" had her listed in his book as Julianna Duursen or Donsan.
Christa Botes in Bloemfontein has cleared up the confusion. Dates all coincide with the Julianna who came back to the Cape in 1835 on board the Roxburgh Castle, her mother died on board ship during the voyage. A copy of Susannah's will shows that the three accompanying children were placed in the care of Julianna's half sister Susanna and her husband George Wood.
Would be very interested in sharing our research with any interested family researchers.
Incidentally , my grandfather John Christopher White - Julianna's third son, married into the "Labuschagne" tree and we have a fair deal of research results available.
