Hi All,
Frederic[k] Schermbrucker, was married and a Carolina Johanna Schermbrucker is buried in the Old Cemetery, Kingwilliamstown, Eastern Cape, there is also a L Schermbrucker buried in Maitland Cemetery, Cape Town dying 31 Oct 1894. He died Cape Town but lived in Kingwilliamstown in the past. If he died after his wife and with no relations it is not beyond belief that he would have no mention on a gravestone. Both these graves appear on the eGGsa grave site of South Africa.
