I would start by looking for phone books and business directories. Maybe Ancestry24 has some? Otherwise, try the public library or the Africana Museum.

On his death notice my great grandfather is listed as having died in CARLINGTON NURSING HOME, JHB. However a search for that place on Google brings up no results, there is only a possible link to a Carrington Nursing Home, so I'm trying to verify whether Carlington actually existed, or whether there was a spelling error on the death notice. Any information would be appreciated.

Tara Hospital in Johannesburg was used as a military hospital during WW2. They have info about the history. Parts of the original building are still in use.
