Habari 2009 - Endebess - My memories of Endebess are of a wooden house just up the hill behind the dukas. I remember it so clearly; the road between the dukas led up to the house. Mr and Mrs Boy lived there. She was midwife and so because we were living in the area that was where I was born, and so were all my sisters and brothers - Danie Steyn …….. I cannot remember my birth but I can remember Mrs Boy, we visited her often for a cup of tea. I don't remember her children as they were all older than me. She had broken her arm when she slipped on a match and it set at 90 degrees to the outside and with that arm she did all her work
