My name is Christina van der Merwe. My adopted surname is Pelzer. I was born on the 4th February 1952, Mount Fletcher in the Transkei. I am looking for my Mother who is the daughter of a Preacher in the Dutch Reform Church in the Cape in 1952. My mother was about 16 years old. I was 3 days old when I was adopted and was registered in the name of Pelzer. The Grand Father of my mother was there when I was born and his Surname was Van Staden. I don't know whether it is from the Mother side or from the Father's side. I could not get any names and I am desperate to find her. She will be about 72 years old. If any body can give my information, I can be contacted on my cellphone 083 455 8128 or on my e-mail: pcmn@anymail.co.za

Thank you very much
