The property belonged to the government. The Surveyor-General of the ZAR issued an instruction that the farm be surveyed as a township, consisting of 600 stands measuring fifty feet by fifty feet. The first auction of stands took place on 8 December 1886. The settlement was named after two officials of the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek (ZAR), Christiaan Johannes Joubert and Johannes Rissik, who both worked in land surveying and mapping. The two men combined the name they shared, adding &#8216;burg&#8217;, the archaic Afrikaans word for &#8216;fortified city&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p><small><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/myjhb.co.za\/new-book-by-barbara-borst-comrades-myjhb-co-za\/\">MyJHB<\/a><\/small><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/myjhb.co.za\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MyJHB<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Join the fun:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/add-your-event\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Add Your event<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mypr.co.za\/submit\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Submit a Press Release<\/a> | <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/directory\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Add your listing<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Book by Barbara Borst: \u201cComrades\u201d | MyJHB.co.za: Johannesburg in the news: New Book by Barbara Borst: &#8220;Comrades&#8221;: Adelaide Books is proud to offer the latest work by Barbara Borst &#8220;Comrades&#8221; hitting stores everywhere now.
