Hi,
I was born in Oranjemund in 1961. I lived there with my parents Anna and Cornelis Hirdes and my two brothers Tony and Kees until 1965. My Mom was close friends with Siska Lindhout. I will be coming to Cape Town in January 2014 and am hoping to reconnect with Francis Lindhout. I'd be grateful if someone could put me in touch with her. I think that's Francis in the picture with my Mom and brothers.

More than 10 years ago, Francis Lindhout and her husband lived in Bloubergrand . She was an art teacher at that time. I don't know if she still lives there. I hope you will find her.
Sylvia , look at John 's pictures from the 1960 's . I posted 1x pics each of Francis and Tineke . but let us know when you found Francis .. ?
Tineke lindhout passed away quite a lot of years ago.
Cora still lives in Somerset West, I don't really the address.
The Lindhouts owned the local cafe am I right. I remember Cora calling a box of matches as ''ein dowsie lowsies''
