Abafazi abatshintsha amagama abo emva komtshato bayawukhulisa lo mbandela.Unsplash / u-Anne Edgar Ihlabathi langoku livakalise ukuwa kwezithethe ezininzi. Abanye baye baphuma bethandeka, njengokutshaya imibhobho, abanye abasamkelekanga ekuhlaleni, njengokuzingela iimpungutye. Kodwa enye inkcubeko engamkelekanga ekuhlaleni okanye engathandekiyo sisithethe seefani zosapho.
Wonke umntu unyanzelekile ngokusemthethweni ukuba abenayo, kwaye bahlala bexatyiswa. Nangona kunjalo, minyaka le ngakumbi nangakumbi amagama anqabileyo ayaphela. Ngamawaka amabini amawaka anamagama wanyamalala e-UK ukusukela ngo-1901.
Isizathu sokulahleka kweefani kungenxa yengxaki ecace gca: abafazi bathatha amagama amadoda abo. Ngobuso bayo, ungacinga ukuba ama-50/50 ithuba lokuba nonyana okanye intombi lithetha ukuba kukho ipesenti engama-50 yamathuba egama lakho, kodwa uya kuba uyaphazama
Unyaka nonyaka, abakwaSmith abaninzi ngakumbi banokutshata kuneBonnevilles. Oku kuthetha ukuba nakuphi na ukwahluka okumbalwa kukwahlulwa okungama-50/50 kuyandiswa, kukhokelela ekunciphiseni okanye nasekucinyweni.
I-China yayineefani ezingama-12,000 kwiminyaka engama-2 000 eyadlulayo, kodwa namhlanje zingama-3,000 kuphela ezisetyenziswayo. Ngapha koko, uninzi lwabemi baseTshayina banelinye lamagama ali-100. Abathathu abadumileyo-uLi, uWang noZhang-benza ezisixhenxe ekhulwini yabemi, elingana nabantu abangama-300,000,000.
Kwimeko yam, ifani kamama, uRea, inabanini abangama-85,000 e-UK, ngelixa uWalker enayo 900,000 . Mna nabantakwethu sidibanise iiWalker ezintathu, kodwa iiReas azifumananga nto, nto leyo ingalunganga.
Amanye amagama aphulukana nokuthandwa ngezinga elothusayo. UCohen ulahlekelwe ngama-42 eepesenti kubungakanani babemi ukusukela ngo-1901. UBill Nighy ngomnye nje wabantu abangama-80 ehlabathini ukuba nefani yakhe, kwaye ibandakanyiwe kwiAncestry.com'sIifani KwiRejista yoMngcipheko .
E-US ingxaki ibonakala ikude kakhulu kuba abafuduki abavela kwihlabathi liphela banike ilizwe inani elikhulu lamagama. Amagosa ajongene nokufudukela kwelinye ilizwe ayigxininisile le mpembelelo ngokupela amagama ngeendlela ezahlukeneyo, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha ezingaqhelekanga. Kodwa neMelika iyaqaqanjelwa yifani yohlobo olufanayo. Kuya kuthatha ixesha elide ukuba kwenzeke.
Yintoni esinokuyenza ukumisa le nto? Abanye abantu basetyhini abanamagama anqabileyo bahamba kabini. E-UK, umntu omnye kwabangama-50 ngoku unegama eliphindwe kabini. Ngomnyaka we-1901, elo nani lalinye kuma-50,000 (kwaye babedla ngokwenzeka).
Kumantla mpuma eNgilani, kuyinto eqhelekileyo ukunika umntwana wakho ifani kanina njengegama lakhe ukuba kunqabile.
Nangona kunjalo, akukho nasinye kwezi sisombululo esiligcina igama likwimo engatshintshanga.
Nasi isisombululo sam: Ndicinga ukuba masilahle isiko labasetyhini abathatha ifani yamadoda abo. Ndicinga ukuba abafazi nabayeni mabagcine amagama abo, kwaye abantwana kufuneka babe nelungelo elisemthethweni lokukhetha ukuba bathatha eliphi xa beneminyaka eli-18 ubudala. Abo banamagama anqabileyo banokufuna ukuwagcina, ke kufanelekile ukuba bacinge ukuba abantwana banokukhetha iifani zabazali babo ukuba bazisebenzise njengabantu abadala.
Ukwenza oku kuya kwaphula isithethe kancinci, kodwa kungagcina amagama afana noPober, uMirren noFebland, bonke abanabanini abangaphantsi kwama-50 eBritane.
Ukuphulukana neefani zembali akunakubagcina abantu ebusuku, kodwa bayinxalenye yesiko lethu kwaye kufuneka sibakhathalele. Ukuba asenzi njalo, inzala yethu ekude iya kuthi iphele ibizwa ngokuba yiZhang. Oloo meko yayiza koyisa injongo yokuba nefani kwasekuqaleni.
Akufanele siphinde siyibone i-Woodbead, iRummage kunye neJarsdel yokuphinda iphindwe kwakhona!
