Her death notice states that she was 72 at the time of her death in 1905. That makes her birth year 1833.

She was born in Port Elizabeth, EC, South Africa and died at Emangeti, Umlalazi, Natal, South Africa - as per the death certificate and documents I have on hand.

Catherine Dunn, Indlunkulu

Her death notice also states the spelling as Pierce

Thank you :)

Could you upload the death note if you have it? It would be great to keep.

Boŕn Cape Colony. No Port Elizabeth
Father Polly Pierce.
Mother notthing on DN

Toni M Randak -- any source that gives Port Elizabeth ,EC as her place of birth ?

-- born 3 years after John Dunn born 1835 that would be 1838 in Natal according to the story in overview of John Dunn ?

Also her mother of " Cape Malay origin " ? In overview / about of Richard Pierce.

No recorded evidence of any descendants of the survivors of the Grosvenor left behind . More myth than fact.

15 in 1853 when she married Dunn , according to information in overview .

What sources have Richard Pierce as her father ?

Polly Pierce on her DN !
No name for mother .
