Forename/initials: Gert Abraham Petrus. Served: Marico.

The duplication of the name: Johanna Cathrina van Rooyen was in the concentration camp at Mafeking and her husband and son, both GAP van Rooyen, were indicated as " on commando and POW". She was my great grandmother. Is it possible to tell me what happened to them during/after imprisonment?

Hi George

You must contact the archives in Pretoria. They have also the files with the information on your great grandmother in the Mafeking Concentration Camp. [Ref : DBC 158 Mafeking CR]
