Hi Folk

Above is a link to an ex Kolmanskopper (1950 to 1957).

Enjoy

Thanks for that Leon.

There is a German lady in town, originally from Swakopmund. As a child during the school holiday's, she and her sister could decided to visit grandparents who lived in Kolmanskuppe or family that lived on a farm.

They always chose Kolmanskuppe. This was in the 50's. 

She told me a few tales and reckons that she has a box full of old photographs from her parents era. Nobody wants them , so on one of her return trips from Swakop she will bring them over to me to scan...

Looking  forward to this...

Same here. It may be an idea to put all the Kolmanskop stories/threads in a special Kolmanskop Folder/category seeing as Oranjemund was the "offspring" of Kolmanskop.

Regards to you all.
