Balgowan is a small town and valley in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands in South Africa. It is home to Michaelhouse School. KwaZulu-Natal (often referred to as KZN) is a province of South Africa. ... Michaelhouse is a private Anglican-affiliated high school for boys and was founded in 1896. ...
George Lennox, the poor farmer’s son, was not to be named in the same breath with the heiress of Balgowan, still less to aspire to her hand.
It was all unconscious, therefore, of the mutual attachment of George Lennox and his daughter, that the Laird of Balgowan invited the former to the festival which welcomed her return.
Beyond the fact that he passed away peacefully, the particulars of his death are not to hand; but from his age, and the fact that he was observed to be growing feeble the last time he was in Goulburn, now a few years ago, we presume it was to general decay of nature.
Mr Balgowan was born in 1801 in the parish of Rhynie in Scotland; and arrived in the colony in 1840.
Mr Balgowan leaves a family of five sons and daughters all grown up and respectably settled in life.
