Question

I have an Ancestor, Martin Fitzgerald (My Great Grandfather) who was married to a Mary Ange (Ann/Anne) her maiden name being LeSpade.

Mary was born either in Mauritius or the then Cape Colony

He was born around 1856 and died in 1888. He got married in 1881 in Port Elizabeth, South Africa

They had two Sons, in South Africa, Albert John (My Grandfather) and Ernest Martin.
