A small Town in the Eastern Free State, close to the Border to Lesotho. The start of the Town was made by a number of enterprising inhabitants who felt that a Town and a Church are needed. The Farm: 'Groenfontein', was bought from: 'Christoffel Gerhardus Fourie', for £5000. A surveyor was then called, to measure out the future Town. That was at the beginning of 1891, the first stand was sold on the 6 October 1891 for £2750.
