Irish Capuchin Missions in the Cape Province

33 cm x 19 cm; Manuscript

No scale given
Hand-drawn map of Irish Capuchin missions in the suburbs around Cape Town, South Africa. The map shows the locations of Claremont, Parow, and Athlone in addition to other major settlements around the Cape Flats and on the Cape Peninsula. The map has been extensively annotated. It reads: ‘The purely white parishes would be Sea Point, Rondebosch, Mowbray, Woodstock (mostly so). The other places have a quota of whites, mostly coloured though. My ambition is to get ourselves quartered in the part marked in heavy read. … All the coloured are moving towards the Flats especially along the main road towards Bellville’.
