Carl Cheryl (nee' Foster)
Born in Harare, grew up in Gatooma/Marandellas. Been in New Zealand with hubby and 2 sons for 3 years since 2000
Special Request
I am looking for my biological father, his name is JIMMEY SUMMERS.
Jimmey met my mother YVONNE JOUBERT in Salisbury - Rhodesia - now Harare /Zimbabwe around 1968 and lived in Waterfalls/Hatfield .
At that time Jimmey was in the RLI. I was born on 20 August 1969. My birth was registered Cheryl Joubert.
My Mother then met and married Graham Foster when I was ten months old, and he adopted me, and was then registered as Cheryl Foster.
The last contact my Mother had with my biological father Jimmey, was when I was about four years old, he was working in Wankie at that time, he told my mother that he had married and had children.
Jimmey Summers has a brother too, his name is ROBIN SUMMERS. Robin Summers was a hairdresser in Salisbury/Harare and then Bulawayo Their mother was RHODA SUMMERS. My mother, Yvonne Joubert lived with Rhoda Summers (my grandmother) for a short while. Since then my grandmother, Rhoda Summers has passed away.
There will always be a connection to my biological father, I think I have alot of his features/looks etc. I would really like to know where I came from, as I often wonder where my children get their looks/character/build etc.
I have known about him since 1984 and would like to end this search as I need to get on with my life.
I would like him to know that he has 2 beautiful grandchildren, Brandon (7) and David (5). I would desperately like to meet him one day, and hope that my prayers can be answered.

Chapman Charles
Hi Georgina, I only discovered your web site today.
I was in Intake 128 and did my training at the School of Inf in Gwelo and would you believe it,
Mike was our first training instructor.
We only had him for about a week before he was posted (to Llewellyn Barracks, I think) but what a week that was!
Mike was quite a daunting spectacle for a bunch of 18 and 19 year olds fresh out of civvie street trying
to play soldiers for the first time. It brings back brilliant memories.
