Ancestor William Gradwell, married Rigg, had William who married Betty?Grandfather Horace Dudley Gradwell appears on ancestry records but not my father, David, or his two sisters. Mother was Ruby Emms, daughter of Robert Emms, born Norfolk, migrated? to South Africa late 1800s.
ANY connections will be much appreciated, longing to meet you all.
Father (David) moved to Northern Rhodesia in 1922 to mine gold, ended up settling there.
Anybody out there to share the history of a fascinating and adventurous family?
