At last things have started moving,literally,the first consignment of materials has reached Johannesburg and arrangements are being made with Procon South Africa to collect the second load shortly, from Durban. Once all materials are there Colbro will transport them to the site in Bulawayo. Professinal Clearing will clear Customs and hopefully they should be ready for Mark Adamson,a specialist engineeer from South Africa when he flies in early November to supervise the building of the new furnace. He will be assisted by artisans and labourers from United Spring. Felix Tshuma[Dunlop] offered accomodation for Mark and Neil Todd will supply transport if nobody else can. The Cremator furnace should be up and running by early December by which stage a salaried operator will be trained for it's future operation. A number of people have at some stage served on the local committee. Sadly Dudley Hubbard, the initial chairman who did a lot to get the Project off the ground, passed away in March this year. Neil Todd then took over and the others are Kathy Booysen, [Treas.Datwest], Debbie Kotze [Secretary United Spring], George Enslin [BCC], Lucky Mlilo [ABUZ], Buster McLean, Roger Smith, George Parkin, Dean Peters, Barry Dakin, Mike Burns and Noel Scott. The Committee are very grateful to the many people who have supported this Project with cash, kind and time. The Beit Trust, through Neil Todd, deserves special thanks for they paid for the total cost of materials thus reducing the burden substantially for the Bulawayo public who are left with whatever costs there are in getting the materails to the site as well as the costs incurred with labour etc.in getting the cremator operational. For the foreseeable future we will be responsible for the maintenance and running of the Crematorium in partnership with the BCC until the environment is suitable to hand over to them totally with the hope that they will sell the idea of cremation to the general public as is the case in South Africa. The following people who contributed mostly in foreign currency have provided the local support which is very necessary to get such a large project off the ground, deserve special thanks not least because of the environment in which we live and work - A Bolze, Adrian Mitchell,Anglesia Farm, Allen Ogden Almond Investments, Alyson Rudd, Ames Engineering, Andre Zeitsman, Billy Hunt, Brett Enslin, Brian 'Dog' Ray, Brian Querl, Bruce Clark, Buzzy Davies, C A Electrical, CC Sales, C T Bolts, Charlie Stanton, Charlie Wawn, Chris Jarred, Classic Cars, Colbro, Colin Bester, Colin Ferguson, Craig Friend, Crawfords, DM Posselt, Datvest, Dave Duff, Dave Harrison, Dave Wright, Davis Granite, Des Rochat, Drillwell Partnership, Dunlop Zimbabwe,E Bartolan, EM Brokensha, Einhorn/Coghlan Rennie, Falcon Gold, Femina Garments, Flora Kirsten, G.Robertson, Gary Rosenfels, Gavin Fraser, George Tzircalle,Gegs Robertson, John Hunt, Horseshoe Mine, I Pattulo, Ivor Kesson, JC Knott, Joe and Doreen Stewart, Joe Langlois, Professional Clearing, John McMinn, Ken Booth, Kershelmar Dairies, L Starling, Laermonth Family, Lindsay Foster, Lobel's Biscuits, Lon Denny, Lotmore t/a Diesel and Dust, Lyndon Stanton, Mark Berger, Matabeleland Busters Sports Club, Matapula, Max Rosenfels, Mick Allard, Mike and B W Colin, Mike and Trish Wood, Mike Macdonald, Mike Querl, P and V Mundy, Olympus Mine, P Halliday, P Staak, Patrick Mann, Paul Bennie, Pet Hilton, Peter Abbott, Peter Chase, Pieter Greef, Poultry Shop, Rich Redman, Richie Dragge, Rob Stirling, Robert Rosenfels, Rodor Properties, Russel Noach, Sean Day, Terence Hewitt, The Soap Shop, Tiger Brake and Clutch, Tim Schultz,To ny and Bridget de Calia, Tony Rosenfels, Tony Wharam , Troy Maidwell, V Peretti P/L, WJ Smit Snr and Jnr, Wayne Clark, Wayne Querl, Wayne Williamson. If we have omitted someone, we apologise, but please report to the Secretary, Debbie at United Spring who will add you to the list. We apologise to all the supporters of this Project that it is taking so long. However, we had not bargained for the problems we have faced in doing business in a foreign country to say nothing of the bureacracy involved. The amount contributed so far is USD 4850.00, SAR 12450.00, GBP 550 Further contributions will be gratefully received by Kathy Booysen at Datwest. Again many thanks to you all for your patience and understanding and for your wonderful support at all times.

He emigrated from Scotland in the early 1900's, his name was Adam Craik and he married a local woman and all I have to go on is that her name was Cath. Adam was born at Caerlaverock in Dumfriesshire Scotland. I think he died in the early 1960's and just after that his wife came over to Scotland after his death to visit relations.
