Hi There
Wot a great idea, a website for the Whitfields! I have always wondered how and when we arrived in South Africa. Will there be any future reunions??? I also have met Whitfields who say that theyre totally unrelated to me, is that possible? I know my family come from Eastern Cape, RSA. Is there any more info available on our heritage? Thanks once again,
Regards Gordon

Family Tree
I have started a family tree comprising of some 1446 family members of which 1181 are blood relatives as at 23 August 2010.
The web site hosting this is http://www.geni.com and can be accessed and amended/added to by members who have been invited to the tree and to date has a data-base of over 44 million names. Should you wish to join and add some leaves, twigs and branches, kindly contact me (Pete Whitfield on pelejab@gmail.com) and let me know where you fit in the tree so that I can send you an invite. There is also a contact box elsewhere on the left side frame. Once invited you can invite others and there are no costs involved.
