During the second Synod in 1826, the Registrar of the NG Kerk, Rev JC
Berrangé, was instructed to take Synodal archival material into his care
and to compile a "redeneerd Register" or Synodal Repertory of the
proceedings. The Registrar of the Synod performed this role for many
years. In 1883 the Synod established a Church Office Commission with the
mandate to equip a proper church office. The same Synod authorised the
purchase of a safe for the archives of the Synod. One of the duties of
the commissioner was that he should take over the task of Archivist from
the Registrar. Rev. Johannes Christoffel Berrangé died leaving an estate
of 45961.10 rixdollars (or £3447/1/9¾) to his three daughters by his

Notes:
1.
An alternative biographical entry states: C W P Douglas de Fenzi was
born in Wiltshire, son of an Anglican minister, and was educated at
Bedford, a public school. In 1881, aged eighteen, he emigrated to Natal.
The Bedford school magazine extols is achievements in sporting and other
fields, so that bit is correct.
2. Emanuele
Fenzi (Firenze, 8 aprile 1784 – Firenze, 10 gennaio 1875) è stato un
banchiere, imprenditore e politico italiano. he was Senator of the Grand
Duchy of Tuscany and later of the Kingdom of Italy, Knight of the Sacred
Military Order of Saint Stephen, Pope and Martyr, Knight of the Order of
Saint Joseph.
