About Olive Phylis King

Quaintance Family
Hi Bruce,
Many thanks for your reply. This link https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33SQ-GT7B-SPYL?i=43&amp... will take you to a copy of a document on the familysearch.org site which is a register of baptisms for the parish of Bethlehem in Orange Free State. You have to be registered on site now to access the information. I would send you a pic but cannot send attachments via ancestry it seems. The date of birth states 18th July 1913 (not the 16th as you have on Geni) and the date of the christening was 3rd August 1913. You may also like to know that Charles was actually Charles Henry (not Harold). He was born in 1878 in Newport, Wales, UK. I saw your photo of him on the Geni site and he is definitely a Quaintance. Apparently someone from S. Africa visited my grandmother to make enquiries many years ago. I only recently found out about that. Weirdly Charles Henry was always referred to as Henry even though his registered birth name was Charles Henry. I say 'weirdly' as he had a younger brother called Charles Samuel (the same name as their father), so there were two sons officially registered with the first name Charles. However, nothing surprises me with the Quaintance family!
