MORKEL A Remarkable South African Family by André Theron Morkel Cover photo: Dovecote at Die Bos by Cathy Morkel Onverwacht has remained in the Morkel family for more than 300 years and I am privileged to live on the original farm, now called Die Bos, as part of the 10th generation. Today Morkels are found all over South Africa and in various countries around the world. It is endearing to see a collection of stories such as this, about our family dating back from Stamvader Philip Morkel and his wife Catharina Pasman. We welcome a book that captures our families’ rich history and undertakings throughout the generations. Sarel Johannes Potgieter Morkel, ( Kleinjan ) Die Bos (10th Gen) André and his co-writers have compiled a book with many fascinating stories about the Morkel family. It is however not only Morkel family history but history in a much broader sense coming alive. The book contains many interesting anecdotes as well as photographs, sketches and maps that complement the stories and is compiled in such a way that it is a pleasure to read. Daniel Malan Jacobs The Morkel family is an outstanding family who bats above their weight. This classic book by André Morkel has placed the Morkel family in history. It is spiced with family stories: from arguing over who sits where in church, to sporting heroes and having pigeons flying the score back home. The author is a pioneer, breathed life into people and one gets to know personalities. Whether you are a historian, genealogist, casual reader or Morkel descendant you will find it hard to put this book down. A.M. (André) van Rensburg André Morkel has researched this family with diligence, honesty, and typical Morkel determination. He brings to life examples of ancestors covering more than three centuries of his family life; a microcosm of the European settlement of South Africa, its hardships, its achievements, the issues facing them, their responses, and their anecdotes. It’s a story of which the Morkels can justly be proud. Your Morkel family history has made a substantial contribution, and makes delightful reading. Roy Lourens Morkel family members made their impact and contribution, be it on the battlefield, the cricket or on the rugby field. The stories of their lives, mostly embedded in a stable family environment, are told by an ardent researcher, one with compassion and an honest interest in his family’s history as well as pride in his heritage, which can be traced back to Germany in the 16th century. The Morkel family book adheres to all the requirements for an interesting and reader-friendly presentation.

Do you have family history and stories to share? About you, your parents, grandparents and further back? We would gladly hear from you. Contact us via the website or directly at [email protected] I am an eighth generation descendant from Stamvader Philip Morkel, born and raised on the farm Altena bordering The Strand. It is a portion of the original farm Onverwacht settled by Philip Morkel in 1713. I could pursue a longstanding interest in family history after retirement as Professor of Management at the University of Western Australia. It started in 1961 when Philip William Morkel published his pioneering book. He encouraged my wife Barbara and I to take his work further. We began with a website, initially focused on our specific line, but it soon attracted broader family. Both the website and our book are opportunistic — they reflect what is available, and there are huge gaps. There are many family trees scattered throughout the book to identify who we are talking about, but our focus is primarily family history, not genealogy. Our website contains possibly the most complete genealogy available for the family, but that is also very incomplete, with large gaps, particularly post mid 1900s. Thanks to our co-authors and contributors. The book is so much richer with your generous input. Thanks to Margaret Thebus; Ron Morkel; Gerritt Morkel; Lou Morkel; Cathy Morkel; Jen Morkel; Fil Morkel; Philip Morkel and Rozanne Winter; Carl Anton Morkel; Pete Morkel; Ebrahim and Rodney Rhoda; Timothy Visser; Peter Weedon; and Jan Malan. Thanks also to Gary Brockman; Jean Wetselaar; Hennie Morkel; Daniel Morkel; Danie Morkel; Charl Morkel; Karen Cilliers; Nita Morkel; Vivian Watts; Stadler and Vida van Zyl. Thanks to members of SA Genealogie for guidance. Special thanks to Daniel Malan Jacobs; Roy Lourens; André van Rensburg and Helena Liebenberg for kind words about the book and to Hendrik Louw; Johan van Breda and Marietta van Zyl. Thanks to our son André Retief Morkel for creating and operating the website and to my wife Barbara and sons for ongoing support. Barbara, Jo Gregg and Neil Lewis did the proofreading and I asked contributors and family to check facts, such as names and dates. Thanks Nickey Cilliers, our publisher, for arranging printing and distribution. As always, I remain responsible for the inevitable errors. André Theron Morkel A Tribute to Philip William Morkel g3 PHILIP (PHIL) WILLIAM MORKEL, born in 1907, was a successful businessman who founded a chain of furniture stores during the early to mid-1900s. He worked with professional archivists and genealogists from the Cape Archives and published The Morkels: Family History and Family Tree in 1961. Many of our stories and the core genealogy come from this source. Oom Phil, as I came to know him, encouraged us to take his work further, and he generously provided his book at below cost to those interested. Unfortunately it has been out of print for many years and he is no longer with us. I have sought to acknowledge him and his book wherever I made use of it. Phil Morkel wrote about the family, but not about himself. Hopefully one day someone with access will write an account of the life of this business pioneer. He created a chain of successful stores at a time when few of Afrikaans descent were active in business. Phil Morkel (right) presenting his book to the Cape Archives in 1961. Source: P.W.

  • According to the Minutes Kept by the Secretary to the Council of Justice
    Sodomy, race and respectability in Stellenbosch and Drakenstein, 1689 – 1762: the story of a family, loosely defined Susie Newton-King This article explores the interacting dynamics of race, class, status and respectability in the emerging colonial society at the Cape of Good Hope in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. It is essentially a case study, which examines the background to the trial and execution of Gerrit Coetzee, the first freeburgher to be accused of sodomy at the Cape. By implication, it raises a number of questions about the rural community in which Gerrit was raised and it re-opens old debates about the degree of colour blindness and the determinants of status in early colonial South Africa. Was Gerrit a victim of racial or social prejudice? Was he excluded, cold-shouldered or otherwise subtly marginalised by his young male peers in Daljosafat, where he lived? Was he driven by prejudice to seek the company of other marginalised individuals and ultimately to engage in suicidally transgressive behaviour? Or was he simply a young man who wrecked his chances by going too far? The trial On Thursday 10 September 1733 the freeburgher Gerrit Coetzee Jacobszoon (the son of Jacob) appeared before the Council of Justice in Cape Town. He was twenty one years old and he was charged with sodomy. He was already a prisoner in the Castle, having been arrested and brought to Cape Town from his home in Daljosafat (in Drakenstein) some time in late July. He had twice been interrogated in the presence of commissioned members of the Council, but this was his first appearance in the long meeting room in the Kat bastion, where the council met every Thursday.
