    Youngest daughter of John Charles Molteno by his wife, Maria Elizabeth Jarvis. Maria married a Cape Town businessman, Tom Anderson, who was a widower. They settled in Kenilworth, but also had a holiday home at Kalk Bay, called Quarterdeck. Tom and Maria had three children – Ernest, Harold and Effie. Maria had a quieter, less forceful character than her elder sisters, Betty and Caroline. She was also much less interested in politics. Sadly, she died prematurely when still in her forties. Her daughter, Effie, took over as the active centre of this branch of the family, despite living far away from the Cape on her husband Elliot Stanford’s farm of Inungi in East Griqualand. Every year, Effie would bring her children down to stay with her father at Kalk Bay during the hottest time of the summer.

    Eldest son of John Molteno and Caroline Bower of London. Emigrated at the age of 16 to the Cape Colony. Became a merchant; later pioneered merino sheep farming at Nelspoort in the Karoo. Elected to the first legislature of the Cape Colony in 1854. Pressed for responsible government (whereby the executive of ministers is accountable to Parliament, and not to the colony’s British Governor), and became the Cape Colony’s first Prime Minister in 1872. Married three times. His first wife, Maria Hewitson, died tragically in childbirth in 1845. By his second wife, Elizabeth Maria Jarvis, John Molteno had ten children who survived infancy and from whom the majority of Moltenos today trace their descent – Betty, Caroline, Maria, Charlie, Percy, Frank, James, Victor, Wallace and Barkly. Following the death of Elizabeth Maria, John Charles married ‘Minnie’ Blenkins; they had four children – Minnie, Ted, Clifford and Harry. None of these ever married or had children. John was knighted sometime after he had been ousted, contrary to established parliamentary convention, as Prime Minister by the then Governor.
