  • Descendants of William Park and Mary Martin
    Park Family History The following pages have a highly speculative attempt to reconstruct the history of the family of William Park, of Bath, Belfast and Quebec, who died in Bath, Somerset, England in 1844. It is known that his daughter Matilda married Richard Vause in Bath in January 1852, and that Matilda's sister married Frederick Hawkins on the same day, and that his wife was Mary Martin, daughter of John Martin, a merchant of Belfast, Antrim, Ireland. Most of the other information is based on circumstantial evidence and “connecting the dots”. Recently several people have helped by giving new dots to connect, but fresh evidence may show that they could be connected in entirely different way, so please do not add this information to your family tree yet. I've been helped a great deal by ShaunJ of the Rootschat website, who found some of the dots. I have compiled this family tree as a research tool only, as a working hypothesis to see where other family members might fit in. I will send this to some other family members who may be interested. If you have any more information on this family, please let me have it. If you would like me to pass on anything else I may find, please let me know. Please note the date on these documents. I am continuing my research and so the information here may be out of date and superseded within a few days, so please get in touch with me for the latest information.

  • 7.3 Mooi System
    7 . 3 MMM OOI SSS Y S T E M 7 . 3 . 1 GGG REATER MMM POFANA BBB ULK WWW ATER SSS UPPLY Planning No. 105.24 Project No. Project Status Detailed Feasibility (as at January 2011) Project Description Sustained housing development and tourism related activities are increasing the water demand at several nodes along the R103 road between Lions River (uMngeni Local Municipality) and Mooi River (Mpofana Local Municipality). This growth is beginning to stress local water resources and water supply infrastructure in the area. It has been identified that a regional bulk water supply scheme is required to ensure that the area has a reliable water supply that will sustain this growth into the future. The proposed scheme ( Figure 7.4) will obtain raw water from the soon-to-be constructed Spring Grove Dam on the Mooi River for a WTP to be situated adjacent to the dam. From here potable water will be pumped to two command reservoirs. The first reservoir will be located at Bruntville in Mooi River. This reservoir will serve the greater Mooi River area and will have the potential to supply the Muden/Rocky Drift area. The Mooi River WTP and Rosetta WTP can then be decommissioned. A link pipeline to supply the Vaalekop community has also been investigated. The second reservoir will be at Nottingham Road which will then supply Balgowan, Lidgetton and possibly Lions River. There is also a link pipeline to Mount West. The scheme is likely to be built in phases to gradually increase the supply area. The scheme together with all the proposed phases is indicated in Figure 7.5.

  • The Hills Above Pietermaritzburg: an Appreciation
    THE HILLS ABOVE PIETERMARITZBURG: AN APPRECIATION P.G. Alcock May 2014 The residents of Pietermaritzburg are well-aware that the hills overlooking the city define Pietermaritzburg in a scenic context, and give it a particular sense of place. The optimum vantage point for viewing these hills is from the southern and eastern parts of the city, looking across the bowl-shaped Msunduzi River Valley.1 It is rather surprising that not much attention has been paid to the hills of Pietermaritzburg in articles and books about the city.2 A partial exception was a chapter in a volume published to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Pietermaritzburg in 1988.3 Specific details regarding the higher-lying land above the city are again sparse in this book, excluding maps showing the general topography, the suburbs and the natural vegetation. The book incorporates some early paintings of the settlement (circa the mid-1850s) with various hills in the background. These paintings reveal an appreciation of the terrain which does not appear to have been carried forward to more recent times.4 The hills have a special resonance, given the contrasting climates to the north and to the south of Pietermaritzburg. Many of the northern slopes are cool and well-watered with spectacular views and with remnants of verdant indigenous vegetation (although dominated by commercial forests) whereas the southern slopes are hot and dry and have limited ambience. Two commonly-touted names for Pietermaritzburg are the “The City of Choice” and perhaps more appropriately “The Green City”. In keeping with an environmental theme are the names “The City of Flowers” as well as “The Garden City”, and in a different context “The Heritage City”.

  • Marketing Constraints Faced by Communal Farmers in Kw Azulu-Na Tal, South Africa: a Case Study of Transaction Costs Maliem Pierr
    MARKETING CONSTRAINTS FACED BY COMMUNAL FARMERS IN KW AZULU-NA TAL, SOUTH AFRICA: A CASE STUDY OF TRANSACTION COSTS By MALIEM PIERRE MA TUNGUL SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS) IN THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES AND AGRIBUSINESS F ACUL TY OF SCIENCE AND AGRICULTURE UNIVERSITY OF NATAL PIETERMARITZBURG 2002 The financial assistance received from the NRF Agricultural Policy Research U nit and TOTAL South Africa towards this research is hereby acknowledged. Opinions expressed and conclusions arrived at, are those of the author and not necessarily to be attributed to the sponsors. I hereby certify that, unless specifically indicated to the contrary in the text, this dissertation is the result of my own original work. Maliem Pierre Matungul A Mamie Ursule et Jesse Tavun, je dedie ce travail. ABSTRACT Farmers engaged in small-scale agriculture in Africa generally have limited access to factors of production, credit and information. Empirical studies throughout the African continent have shown the extent to which high transaction costs constrain or prevent access to information and markets, especially for small-scale farmers. Despite these constraints, farmers in two communal areas of KwaZulu-Natal (Impendle and Swayimana) have managed to produce food for both own consumption and marketing. This study draws heavily on the New Institutional Economics, and particularly Transaction Cost Economics, which have demonstrated the important role of transaction costs in constraining economic activity, and of institutions developed to lower these costs. Transaction costs are the costs of exchange, including costs of information, negotiation, monitoring, coordination and enforcement of contracts.

  • Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme
    GREATER MPOFANA BULK WATER SUPPLY SCHEME IMPLEMENTATION READINESS REPORT OCTOBER 2016 PREPARED BY Umgeni Water Telephone N° : 033 341 1203 Fax N° : 033 341 1218 Email Address : mark.scott@umgeni.co.za P O Box 3235 Pietermaritzburg, 3200 310 Burger Street Pietermaritzburg, 3201 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Context This project involves a potable bulk water supply scheme located in the Midlands area of the KwaZulu-Natal province. It is referred to as the Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme (GMBWSS). The Greater Mpofana Region (described in this report as the area from Mooi River to Lidgetton) does not have a reliable water supply. Much of the area relies on boreholes and run of river abstraction. With increasing demands, the future supply is not considered sustainable. Phase 1 of the project is currently under construction and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Mooiriver, Rosetta and Nottingham Road. Phase 2 of the project is in the final feasibility stage and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Lidgetton and Lions River including the rural hinterland surrounding the abovementioned towns in KwaZulu Natal. The Scheme will provide bulk water supply to large areas within the uMgungundlovu WSA boundary and will include the rural areas of Bruntville, Lidgetton, Lions River and Msinga. The scheme will also supply economic activities in the areas of Mooiriver, Nottingham Road and Rosetta and will reinforce the supply to these towns. This Implementation Readiness Report (IRS) for the GMBWSS is a prerequisite for RBIG funding so that potable water is made available to both the developing and backlog areas of Mooi River and Rosetta in the Mpofana Local Municipality and Nottingham Road, Mount West, Balgowan and Lidgetton in the uMngeni Local Municipality.
