HI Cheryl
Just doing some research for Karen Pickering who's mother's maiden name was Cockburn and her Mother's uncle was Bertie Hamilton Glassford Cockburn/Coburn born in Bendigo in 1892. The family were aware that Bertie went to Johannesburg, South Africa about 1910ish. He enlisted in WW1, was married twice and died in 1945 in Bloemfontein. We would appreciate any info about Bertie' s life in South Africa if he is also your family connection. We have some further details to exchange with you of his family in Australia if you would like.
Kind regards
Jenny Erwin
for Karen Pickering.
