Daar word op die sosiale, politieke en godsdienstige geskiedenis van die wit Afrikaanssprekende-gemeenskap op Despatch gekonsentreer. Die studie ondersoek slegs die geskiedenis van die wit Afrikaanssprekende-gemeenskap van Despatch aangesien die dorp bekend daarvoor is dat dit oorwegend ʼn wit Afrikaanssprekende-gemeenskap is. Die ekonomie van Despatch en die bruin en swart inwoners word egter kortliks bespreek. Die tydperk van hierdie studie handel van 1945 – 1995. Dit was tydens hierdie jare wat Despatch amptelik as ʼn munisipaliteit gefunksioneer het. Uit die aard van die saak moet die studie gebeure wat aanleiding tot die nedersetting van wit mense langs die oewer van die Swartkopsrivier bespreek. Daar word ʼn kort studie gemaak van die periode 1700 (toe die eerste wit mense hulle langs die oewers van die Swartkopsrivier gevestig het) tot 1939 (wat die begin was van permanente nedersettings langs die syspoor op Despatch). Sekere gebeure word verder as 1995 bespreek. Dit word gedoen om kontinuiteit te behou wanneer belangrike gebeurtenisse, soos die oorskakeling na demokratiese regering in 1994, ondersoek word. Die doel van die studie is om ʼn verkennende ondersoek rakende die geskiedenis van die wit Afrikaanssprekende-gemeenskap van Despatch te doen. Die studie is ʼn verkennende ondersoek omrede nie al die aspekte van die geskiedenis van Despatch ondersoek sal word nie. Slegs die wit Afrikaanssprekende- gemeenskap se sosiale strukture (onderwys, godsdiens en kultuur), munisipale bestuur en politiek sal ondersoek word. 9 I. Agtergrond “[…] whatever its importance and size no town is an isolated island.”1 Die Nelson Mandela Metropolitaanse Munisipaliteit (NMMM) is in 2000 gestig. Die NMMM is ʼn metropool wat uit drie stadsdele bestaan, naamlik Port Elizabeth, Uitenhage en Despatch. Despatch speel ʼn belangrike rol in die metropool. “Towns came into being to serve the communities and the surrounding countryside”.2 Despatch kan in ʼn sekere sin as die steen waarmee Port Elizabeth en Uitenhage gebou is geag word, aangesien daar ʼn steengroef geleë was op die gebied wat later ontwikkel het in die dorp van Despatch. Omdat die gebied baie kleigrond het en langs ʼn rivier geleë is, is die kwaliteit stene wat vervaardig is van ʼn besondere hoë gehalte. Soos wat die steengroef meer winsgewend geraak het, is masjinerie vanaf Groot-Brittanje ingevoer. Die Despatch steengroef was destyds een van die mees moderne steengroewe in Suid-Afrika.3 Vroeg in die twintigste eeu het die steengroef tot een van die belangrikste kommersiële industrieë in die Port Elizabeth/Uitenhage/Despatch gebied ontwikkel. Dit was te danke aan die verdere ontwikkelings in die Missionvale gebied, die soutwerke en die spoorweë se uitbreidings op Uitenhage.4 Die Despatch steengroef het die stene vervaardig en verskeie geboue in Port Elizabeth en Uitenhage is daarmee gebou.5 1 W.

This unique series combines aspects of the expanding study of sport in the global society, providing comprehensiveness and comparison under one editorial umbrella. It is particularly timely, with studies in the political, cultural, anthropological, ethnographic, social, economic, geographical and aesthetic elements of sport proliferating in institutions of higher education. Eric Hobsbawm once called sport one of the most significant practices of the late nineteenth century. Its significance was even more marked in the late twentieth century and will continue to grow in importance into the new millennium as the world develops into a ‘global village’ sharing the English language, technology and sport.
