Hi Geoff, I am Ruth Rogers the niece of Michael Venables who died in Octer 2000. My grandfather was James Oswell Venables and Anglican Priest who came to South Africa in 1926. I have been trying to follow his family tree - but the Venables family is extensive and it is not easy to find the roots. I would be happy to share any information that might be helpful to you. You can reach me on
