THE NEWMAN FAMILY
You will find the connection between the Millers and Newmans under MILLERS IN SOUTH AFRICA and from there the Watson connection.
To put it simply, my father's mother, my paternal grandmother, had been a Newman until marrying Alexander Richards Watson.
Norma van As's book, A Small World, is invaluable for more detail, but I am specifically interested in my Watson link. The following is a summary selecting only those names and events relevant:
Ida Emily Miller married Angus William Newman at Arnoldton on the 15th May 1882.
They had the following children:
- Angus Miller Newman b 11th November 1883. m Clarissa Mary Kidger Tucker
