Hi Keith,
Saw your surname and wondered if you have an ancestor: Maria Catharina
Meintjes b.1844 d.1880 who married Henry Dyason.
Their children were George Verity Dyason 1865-1928 m Alice Gertrude Marais
(Marias);
James Meintjes 1867-1952 m Catherine Cornelia Marais
(Marias)
Ernest Clement 1870-1953 m Annie Sophie Cloete van Reenen
m Mary Elizabeth Pirie
Maria Elizabeth 1871 m Mr Tarr
m Mr Railton
Illdica Henrietta
Henry Robert 1878-1925
Helena Elizabeth 1880

I have no more info on Maria and I dont know how common the name "Meintjes"
is in South Africa, but there you are - maybe some useful info for you.

Cheers, Jane
