You can search the South Africa telephone book at

I found at least 25 entries for Ritson.

Hello Heather,

It looks to me all the Ritson's in SA was living once upon a time in Durban
or
nearby. I will follow this info up, maybe we find him.

Hi Listers:
Modern day RITSON... I was at school with a David RITSON in Durban 1960,s
and 70,s. I cannot remember the names of his parents but I do remember that
he
was an exceptional soccer player and went professional after leaving school.
Perhaps this will help the RITSON researcher.
