Look at these links that shows that the name Henry Williams is a common name used in Nigerian scams, http://www.nigerianscams.org/free/names_all/names_K.htm and http://www.internet-fraud.com/fraudforum/DCForumID3/265.html
Henry Williams is a very common name in South Africa. There is a well-known South African cricketer by the same name, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Williams_(cricketer) and there is also a well-known florist in Cape Town, http://www.henrywilliams.co.za/scripts/wspd_cgi.sh/WService=wsbhws/category.htm by the same name.
You can look up the name in the South African Phonebook and see how many results you'll find, http://phonebook.yellowpages.co.za/ , if that will help.
The only barrister named Henry Williams that worked in South Africa is deceased and was in fact a Trinidadian. You can read more about him from this link, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Sylvester-Williams
If you received an e-mail from this guy, it must be a scam as this guy has been dead for 96 years.
I suggest you post more details on this person in order to get better answers. I gather that you need the information on this guy to verify if the e-mail you got from him is indeed real. If so, be careful!

Like Frikkie stated,it's simpler and less expensive for the reward govt to rename historical locations instead than to construct new ones, and thereby they're seeking to create the affect to international viewers that the brand new regime is constructing new locations in a brand new South Africa. This is one other African rip-off perpetrated by way of a central authority to lure international funding whilst they're utilising the tax payers cash to dedicate this bluff. One can not erase the reminiscences or historical past of a nation by way of renaming locations,one has to construct anything new to be ready to begin a brand new bankruptcy in historical past and create new reminiscences.

Sorry, I can't help.
I have no idea what this concerns but be really careful. You don't want to end up like the Black Dahlia.

Here's your clue: the title 'barrister' is North American English. It is not used in South Africa.

If you have just cause, contact the police and ask them for assistance. You'll need to show why you really need to know.

Did you get this in an email from someone you've never heard of? It's fake.
