My name is James Gordon Foulds , I have through G.R. managed to do very well with my Foulds Family Line .Mainly all originating from the Blackburn Manchester area .Late 1700-mid 1800 The family where Hatters in Blackburn We found that in the 1800s at different times Foulds members of the family went to Cape Town one being my great grandfather later returning .Then my grandfather Frank who returned around 1905-10. My father also Frank after W.W.2 emigrated with my mother to Bulawayo where I was born .(I later returned to the U.K.)The person I am trying to trace is one the brother of my grandfather Percy b1883 I believe he possibly had a son born 1919form there no more information.If anyone could help or any other Foulds decendants would like to get in touch that will be great.

Hello Michael

Not sure if I can help. I know a Hayley Foulds who is married to my brother-in-law, both of whom are in Cape Town and I believe she was born there. She has a sister and brother. I know there is some sort of UK connection. If you give me a few more details I can maybe make the link for you ....
