Souvenir Saturday: Durban Market Square 1860s



Market Square, Court House, Post Office, Mart etc, Durban.ca 1862

This is as close as we'll get to a contemporary photo of Durban when my great grandfather Thomas Alfred Gadsden arrived on the barque Priscilla in 1863. His first employment was as turnkey at the local gaol, unfortunately not shown in this picture.
