Surname: Blake, Dreyer, Oosthuisen, Hawkins
-------------------------

I've been trying to trace my husband's line on his father's side - the
Blakes - without a great deal of success. We've only got back as far as
his grandfather, John Kenilworth Blake, who was born on 21 December 1899
and christened on the Kenilworth Castle on 21 May 1905 as John Kenilworth
Parsons (stepfather's surname). It doesn't appear to have been on their
way over, though, because they had lived in SA before that. John married
Rose Elizabeth Bozzett.

Please let me know if these seem to be the Blakes that you are interested
in. Thanks.
