  • Notes 
    • 1 - Frederick Macfarlane was born in Scotland and went to school at Watsonians in Edinburgh. Frederick and his brother Sidney was sent by ship to Australia to complete their schooling. Their original surname, aparently was Gradidge (the people wh o are well known in UK cricket circles (manufacturing of cricket bats, etc.) For some reason the two boys never went back to Scotland but settled in South Africa and changed their surname to their mother's maiden name, i.e. MacFarlane.
      Frederick died of a heart attack in 1957 at the age of 72. (He was a short stout man, quite well off, being a Mine Manager and also the owner of a hotel. So I think they lived the good life, true and well).
