I have located Franks Estate papers and documents for a home loan in the Cape Archives. (see below). You will either have to write to the Cape Town Archives and request for microfilm or hand transcribed copies of these documents as no photocopying is allowed or you will have to ask someone one the mailing list or pay a researcher.
