Can you help with info on Karri Davies?
Belinda Eisenhauer, Perth
She writes: “I am busy researching David Walter ‘Karri’ Davies (1861-1926), an Anglo-Boer War personality, mining magnate and founder of Karridene on the KZN south coast. Karri Davies was from a Western Australian family based in Karridale – hence the interest, as there are descendants living there now.
“I have come across a couple of gaps in Karri Davies’ history in South Africa. Despite extensive research we are unable to find any further information.”
She is appealing to Jewish Report readers for more information.
“We are especially interested in establishing when he left South Africa permanently.”
