Adoption Africa a Search Site for Adoptees, Birth Parents, and Adoptive Parents Life is like a jigsaw puzzle, and for hundreds of thousands of people, there are pieces of the puzzle missing from their life's picture. This page is intended to be a starting point for all those adoptees, particularly Southern Africans (South Africa, Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Malawi) who need to know more about their origins, and for the birth parents who want to know about their child. Here they may find the last pieces of the puzzle to complete the whole picture... It is hoped that adoptive and prospective adoptive parents will also find the site useful. Please note : this is not a general site to locate Missing Persons, and is specifically for Adoptees and Birth Parents seeking each other. Legal constraints apply. (See The Law and You IMPORTANT NOTICE: For various reasons, it is regretted that there is no longer a searchable database on this site , and all e-mail contact has been closed. The site will now operate purely as a place to find information about the PROCESS of finding each other, and I will not be able to assist directly in reuniting people. It is with deep regret and a lot of soul-searching that I have made this decision. For those of you who sent me such caring, loving letters, I shall treasure them all - they have a special place in my heart. For those of you who castigated me and verbally abused me without good reason, the place in my heart is slowly healing from the hurt. Just know that you were partly responsible for the closing down of the database.

RHODESIAN RIDGEBACK: A HISTORY LONG 75 YEARS...AND BEYOND M r. F. R. Barnes The breed today known as Rhodesian Ridgeback was established in 1922, thanks to the passion, constance and drive of Mr. Francis Richard Barnes . Let's follow the words of Mr. B.W. Durham witness of those days, as he told about them some years later in an article for the South Africa Kennel Union Gazette (Dec. 1950): It must be noticed that the witness " with some knowledge of the breed " was Durham himself, at the time the only "all breeds" judge in Rhodesia. Beyond Barnes, Durham and Mr. C. H. Edmonds took part in the drawing up of the standar, the latter senior Vet Surgreon for South Rhodesia at the time. 1922 ORIGINAL STANDARD C rested dogs arrive in Rhodesia But let's go 50 years back, to rev. Charles Helm who lived in Matabeleland at the end of last century, the southern region of today's Zimbabwe, Rhodesia up to 1980. Helm ran the mission of Hope Fountain, not far from the kraal of the matabele king Lobengula, where years later the city of Bulawayo was to be founded. In 1879 he brought two ridged dogs from the Swellendam district, to his new house. The dogs were Lorna and Powder. The mission was located at a crossroad and stop place for the many travellers crossing the region, among whom a number of "white hunters" after big african preys,elephants and lions.

It covers a period during which few badges were worn and is mainly of historical interest and as such, well worth recording. Details of the homemade flashes and rosettes worn by volunteer units do not exist at the archives or museums in Rhodesia, except for the circular cloth embroidered badges of the original "British South Africa Police" and the "Rhodesia Horse". In both cases the badge is of red lettering on a navy background with a red lion and tusk in the centre. 1. BRITISH SOUTH AFRICA COMPANY POLICE (with Pioneer Column) 1890. 2.

Home About RRCUS Breed Info Rescue ... Links Last update: The Rhodesian Ridgeback Historical Information In November 1955 the American Kennel Club admitted the Rhodesian Ridgeback to its Stud Book as the 112th breed to be accorded AKC registration facilities. The Rhodesian Ridgeback is shown in the Hound Group (Group 2). Since this recognition of the Rhodesian Ridgeback by the American Kennel Club, intense and greater interest has developed in the breed in this country. The Rhodesian Ridgeback is a native of South Africa. The breed's long history dates back to early in the 16th century when the first European men explored the interior on the Cape of Good Hope and found with the Hottentot tribes a domesticated dog with the hair on his spine being turned forward. This is the condition which we now refer to as the "ridge." The only other known dog which has the peculiarity of such a ridge is found on the island of Phu Quoc in the Gulf of Siam. It has never been definitely determined whether the peculiarity of this ridge originated in South Africa or on the island of Phu Quoc, but the evidence available seems to indicate that it originated in South Africa and that specimens of dogs with ridges were transported from South Africa to the island of Phu Quoc. It is not known where the Hottentots first obtained these dogs. It is common knowledge that the Hottentot had pronounced Asiatic features and that his ancestors probably hailed from the East. If this is so, it may be assumed that the ridged dog accompanied him on his peregrination until he finally reached Africa.

Rhodesian Ridgebacks A Brief History The Rhodesian Ridgebacks is a relatively new breed, basically a native dog interbred with European immigrants' dogs and selected for the function of big game hunting, farm dog and general guarding.The local KhoiKhoi tribes had their own semi-domesticated camp dog - small, prick-eared, curled tail and a ridge of opposite-growing hair on its back - I imagine it was somewhat similar to the breed called "Africanis" in looks.. Although for the next several hundred years this breed interbred with the settler's non-ridged dogs, the ridge factor was persistent, survived and became much sought after in hunting circles.. From the National Archives Today, we credit three men as being mainly responsible for bringing the Rhodesian Ridgeback to where it is today. They were Charles Helm, Cornelius van Rooyen and Francis Barnes. The Reverend Charles Helm, along with his wife and daughter, made the "trek" from Swellendam, in the Cape, to Hope Fountain in 1875 and took over the mission there. Along with his family, he brought two ridged bitches, Powder and Lorna. All travelers to the area stopped to rest at the mission ( there were no hotels, motels nor inns in those days) and it was here that Mr Helm became friends with von Rooyen, the famous lion hunter and game procurer. Helm's two bitches interbred with van Rooyen's hunting dogs, the pups joining his pack and spreading the ridge factor. Unlike van Rooyen and Barnes, the Rev. Helm's part in establishing the breed was purely accidental, but a fortunate first step for the Rhodesian Ridgeback.

With the formation in 1923 of the first colonial settler government in Southern Rhodesia the subsequent power and influence of the British South Africa Company in the region were reduced and largely exercised through ownership of the Rhodesian railways, whose tariffs were often criticised by white farmers. Road transport provided the first effective challenge to the monopoly of the railways during the 1930s and the urgent need for railway modernisation became a major issue in the period leading up to nationalisation in 1947, described by Lunn as 'a watershed in the stormy relationship between the settler community and the BSA company'.

By Jock McCulloch (Bloomington and Indianapolis: Indiana University Press, 2000. ix plus 272pp. $35.00). The larger theme of this book is paranoia and paradox. More specifically, it focuses on the obsession of white male colonizers in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) with the sexuality of colonized African men, most notably in relation to white women. The imagined "black peril" that resulted from that fixation, Jock McCulloch argues, was a major feature of Rhodesian white settler society between 1902 and 1935, and especially from 1902 to 1916.
