Hi Stella/Patricia,
Would you know of any WOOD/S family living in Coligney/Lichtenberg circa
1955/57. I lived on their farm as a child. They had a maize farm which they
eventually sold and bought an orange farm in the Rustenberg area. Mr. WOOD/S
was a stone mason and worked at the local quarry.

Regards,

Rod
