She died on the 7th November 1989 Rusoord Retirement Home, Lyttleton, Pretoria OBITUARY Die Hoevelder - Vrydag 1 Desember 1989. DOYENNE OF OLD CAROLINA DIES. Local historians will be interested to learn and old Carolinans will be saddened to know of the death on the 7th November of Nellie Maude BRINK (nee LIVERSAGE) in the NGK Old Age Home ("Rusoord") in Lyttleton, Pretoria. Every time a Carolina householder switches on a light, or plugs in an eletrical appliance they re-enact a scene with took place in the 1920's where Mrs. BRINK wife of Clr. Schalk Richard BRINK pulled at the huge power-switch which, for the first time in Carolina's history electrified the town and its surrounds. Carolina draws her power direct from Eskom these days, but in those early years, the town started its own Industrial Revolution with the building of power station in the town, just east of the railway line. All the dignitaries of the area were present at this grand affair which launched Carolina into a new era- from what was then nothing other than a farming village to the dynamic town it is today. Maude (or 'Maudie' as she was affectionately known) was a great benefactress to the indigent and underprivileged, expecially during the Depression years. She was much beloved by the children, especially at Christmas-tide, when the front garden of Clr. Brink's home sported a huge Christmas tree suitably adorned and decorated. Gifts were presented to all who cared to come, especially to those who would receive no other gift than that one given to them by this affectionate, great-hearted lady. The Brink couple were known for their generosity, and the 'open-house' they kept, by the legions of servicemen who were stationed in Carolina prior to "going up North" during the dark days of the Scond World War. One of 'Maudie's sadest recollections of those war years was her farewell to the thousands of men who entrained from Carolina to form the 6th Brigade after the fall of Tobruk. Nellie Maude BRINK was born on the 2nd November 1899 on the farm 'Fairview' between Carolina and Wonderfontein. This sheepfarm was owned by her father Charles Phillip LIVERSAGE of 1820 Settler stock and her mother, Nellie's (nee Tamplin HART) claim to distinction was that she was a direct descendant of Col. Robert HART who came out from England in 1795 under the First British Occupation of the Cape. Soon after his arrival he was granted letters patent to a large farm, today the town of Somerset-West (actually Somerset-East) making him and his family and their descendants the first English Speaking South Africans. Her husband, Ben, as he was familiarly known, was something of a local personage too. Not only was he the owner of the Carolina Trading Company (in Vortrekker Street) but he also served as Chairman of the Finance Committee of the then Carolina Village Council in the 1920's and 30's. Relative of the legendary "Onze Jan" HOFMEYR,he was one of the reception committee to meet the future Edward VIII when the latter, still as the Prince of Wales, stopped over in Carolina on his official tour of South Africa. Clr BRINK not only served the community as village councillor, but ran the tote at the Carolina Racecourse! In addition he was the official driver's licence tester in those days before the Carolina Municipal Traffic Department. The Village Council gave him even stranger duties during the war years - in association with the magistrate, he was required to decide who might obtain fire-arms, and believe it or not who got replacement tyres! He serve in the Carolina Commando under Gnl Louis BOTHA during the 1915 SWA campaign and the family still cherishes today his mention in Despatches by Gnl. Botha "for gallant and distinguished services in the Field". This citation is signed by none other than Winston Churchill then Secretary of State for War. He served with distinction during the DRA Rebellion and after being promoted to Captain Quarter Master was awarded the Efficiency Decoration for meritorious service to Carolina Commando in 1943. He retired in 1945 to Pretoria where he died on the 13th May 1972. Nellie Maude Brink, who died 4 days after her 90th birthday, was the proud mother of 3 daughters (two of whom survive her) and 2 sons (both deceased). She leaves 13 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren. Carolina residents who might still remember the BRINK family, and more especially, Maude, will be heartened to know that the memories of her life in Carolina from 1899 to 1945 were with her until her last days. I hope this adds to your knowledge of the family.
