The early history of Hankey 1822-1847
No full textDissertation (MA)--University of Pretoria, 1984.Various issues emerge from a study of the first twenty-five
years of the history of Hankey, which began as a station
founded by the London Missionary Society in 1822. From the
outset it constituted a unique experiment in Khoi land
ownership, preceding the establishment of the Government
inspired Kat River Settlement by seven years. Land
acquisition in Hankey became a complex and disputed issue
which was never satisfactorily resolved.
Hankey was the scene of several early irrigation schemes.
The most important of these featured the excavation in 1844
of a tunnel 240 metres long through the Vensterhoek
Mountain, the first of its kind in the country. The tunnel
was designed by the missionary William Enowy Philip and
executed with the help of a band of Khoi labourers. It
functioned successfully for 125 years until superseded by a
modern irrigation network in 1970.

In December 1838 when the ex-slaves were released from
their apprenticeships, many of them had nowhere to go.

missionary Edward Williams established a wool
at the institution and gave formal instruction in
weaving and knitting. These crafts were taught
educational value rather than their economic
potential. After 1842 William Philip arranged for the
young men on the station to learn carpentry, blacksmithery
and waggon building.
In the field of higher education Hankey was a pioneer
centre. Thomas Durant Philip founded a seminary there in
1847 for the sons of missionaries and suitable candidates
from other racial groups who wanted to enter the ministry.
A study of this nature involves an examination of the
characters of the missionaries serving there during the
period under review. With one exception, they were men of
an exceptionaly high calibre. John Melvill gave up a life
of comparative ease as a Government Surveyor in Cape Town
to serve the missionary cause. Edward Williams was the
first missionary at Hankey to make contact with the White
farmers in the district and to minister to their spiritual
needs. William Philip, his successor, being a qualified
medical doctor, was able to provide them with a health
service. Upon his death by drowning in the Gamtoos River,
his brother Thomas Durant Philip took over the station and
completed the Hankey irrigation system.
Dr. John Philip, the Superintendent of the London
Missionary Society in Southern Africa, was responsible for
the founding of Hankey. He chose it as his place of
retirement in 1850 and died there on 27th August, 1851.Historical and Heritage StudiesMAUnrestricte
