GGFather & his younger brother emigrated from Ireland to
Kingwilliamstown, Eastern Cape, South Africa in the late 1800's. The
brother became the proprietor of the Masonic Hotel which still stands

a living from the off-sales. No chance of being declared a National
Monument! This image is from Google Earth:
