Celebrate Martine Lechambre Autobiographic Author
Martine grew up in the southern suburbs of Johannesburg. She left school in the middle of Std 9 as her mother said she couldn't afford to keep her. Her autobiography is not only a story of Martin'e difficult, challenging and tough life, but a lesson in patience. This lesson started when she was a little girl and a young army soldier told her that she would one day be grown up and will then be able to make her own decisions about life. She just needed to be patient.
That piece of advice stuck with her and formed the foundation of everything she has done since.
Martine's book is available on Amazon:

    Regarding the reasons for wanting to leave the UK and Ireland, I wanted to mention the often forgotten or unknown fact that a supervolcano erupted in Indonesia in 1815, and caused “The year without a Summer” in 1816, in England, parts of Europe, even New England in the USA. Harvests failed and it was dismal. The effects lingered on beyond 1816. So soldiers returned after Waterloo, to esunemployment followed by ghastly weather and crop failures, and this all combined to cause people to consider ways to escape these circumstances.

      I'm a relative of Harry Dugmore, I have just finished his book, and I wish to come to SA to access his other writings in the archives. He seemed like an excellent writer, And I'm interested in the other things he wrote. I'm one of those 'lost' ancestors, I remember being contacted by South African Dugmores about 20 years back but I never got back to them. The Karen that he mentions from New Zealand is my grandmothers sister.

    I am a 'coloured' South African, i'd like to do my DNA ancestry in the near future...I know I have Dutch and German, maybe French in me but I hope I can trace my lineage back to the 1820 settlers, like Cecil John Rhodes said, "To be born English is to win first prize in the lottery of life"
