From Elenor Gauch:
Philip Rudolf Nel Martens apparently owed the farm
Silverstreams in the far past; and it was sold.
I believe the Aquelle springwater is now bottled at Silverstreams. Is that correct?
Philip also worked on a farm Langehoop; now the Lions Park where hefarmed with cattle and mealies etc. on the farm of Mr FrikkieScheepers; the second husband to Christina. Her first husband was a MARTENS. Initials unknown to me.
I have a very old photograph here of a lot of Uncles unknown to me. It was given to me by Marthinette Martens(she married a Valentini(late) and she still
lives in Pietermartizburg.
Philip was married twice and had 4 daughters; 2 from each marriage.
