St. Mary's Episcopal Church<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Jared’s great grandfather Samuel Martin emigrated to Cape Town South Africa in the late 1800’s.\u00a0 We set out to find some landmarks recorded in my great grandfather’s journal.\u00a0 It was quite an adventure looking for landmarks over 115 years old.<\/p>\n

We found the church Samuel and Clair were married in (St. Mary’s Anglican Church in Woodstock).\u00a0 The approximate location of were they lived (22 Wiliam Street, Woodstock.\u00a0 Now it is a parking lot for the Woodstock Police Station).<\/p>\n

Mission Hall<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is what Samuel called the second Mission Hall.\u00a0 It is where the early Cape Town saints met. It is a good sized building very close to where Sam and Clara lived.\u00a0 This building is still being used as a church.<\/p>\n

Found the cemetery were Aunt Claire was buried. That cemetery is so big, you can see it from the top of Table \"\"<\/a>Mountain.\u00a0 We went to the office to ask for help with the plat numbers, but the guy just looked at us as if we were crazy.\u00a0 Thank goodness we got good directions from my Dad’s cousin, Kraig Beckstrand.<\/p>\n
