General Information:
Letter from Mrs Pip Brumage - Sept 1996 - C.T.D. Dunman was old Charlie Dunman. He died while I was still quite small - probably in the late 20s or early 30s. He had two sons - Clifford and Luvane. Lukenya Hill was a long rocky outcrop, high and steep at one end (Lukenya Point) and gradually getting wider and flatter towards the other end until after some miles it petered out. Lukenya Point and most of the high ground belong to my parents and we lived on the Athi River side. Round the other side of the point lived the Dunmans and they owned the land at the base of the hill on their side and some of the lower slopes further along.
