Dave Lichtenstein - He left Germany in 1938 via England bound for Kenya. He managed farms around the Nakuru area including Ol Kalou, Naivasha and Njoro. Names that used to be bandied about were Griffin, Watts-Williams, Hopcraft and a name that sounds like Gattegno - the latter at some stage bought Bill Sewell's Forest Farm at Njoro and certainly my earliest recollections of life was Forest Farm (I was born in 1943 - the year that my mother Felicja Heringman came out to Kenya and married my father via Uganda and to there from Poland originally via Russia and the 'Stan' States)

I can also certainly confirm that my father worked for Mrs Griffin in Ol Kalou as her daughter Heather who went to the Kenya High School in 1947-50 remembered my father.

Years later when we were farming in the Uasin Gishu district (specifically Eldoret) I remember my father mentioning how he had bumped into Heather in Eldoret. She had married a Rooken-Smith who farmed in Turbo.

Left for W.Australia in 1962.

He got his parents Friedrich (Jewish minister) and Susanna to Nakuru, where there were instrumental in building a new synagogue.
