3. WATSON - Nairobi [1]
I have been told by a cousin of my late fathers that family by the name of WATSON lived in Nairobi in the early to middle half of the 20th century. My great grandfather was Charles John Watson born 1866 in Bethnal Green, London. His parents were Edward Watson and Mary (nee Lyons). Charles married Louisa Sarah Hillier and they had 3 known sons and a daughter. I think they may have had another daughter possibly called Florence. Tina Claydon (nee Watson) Devon UK

Dear Anne From the information I have to hand I can tell you the following. George William Shutt was appointed in the UK as a Winding Engine driver and arrived in Mombasa on 6 Nov 1899. On 20 Sept 1901 all winding engine drivers were given 3 months notice and he was due to leave on 20th Nov 1901. Clearly he didn't go. His residence in UK before he left is given as Oldbury, Worcs He is recorded in the Kenya residents directory for 1930/31 together with J E SHUTT. Could this have been his son or another re
15. Ruth DAVIS [1]
I am writing to ask if anyone on this list knows anything about an accident that befell my second cousin, Ruth DAVIS, who fell over a cliff in Kenya in mid-July 1969 and was killed. Ruth was an American. She was in Kenya, along with other anthropologists, to do primate research. She was buried in Gombe Stream National Park, which I believe is near Kigoma. Would anyone know anything more about this event or how I could get more information about it? Thanks very much. Jayne perllan987@aol.com

I am searching for birth, marriage and death records concerning the following family: Michael Raubenheimer married Betty Delise Alison (born in 1925) and they had a son Richard.

I cannot find any death record for him in England in the 1837online site so I am trying to see if there are any records for Kenya. Many thanks Diane Campbell
