DIASPORA & van Rensburg

Back to home Back to Historical

In 1964 there were 46,500 van Rensburgs in South Africa. Taking a conservative estimate one can say there must be in the year 2003 at least 50,000 van Rensburgs.

van Rensburgs form part of sub population group in SA of 8 million people
Presuming there were 50,000 van Rensburgs out of a population of 8 million than the ratio would be 1:160

The number of emmigration from South Africa until 2001 - 400,000 (Unisa estimated in 1999 that the numbers were 1.6 million) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/africa/2149297.stm.
(Presuming that the numbers of black South Africans emigrating were that low that we did not need to take that into account)

New Zealand - 2001 - 26,061 South Africans http://www.sanztrust.org.nz/numbers.html Of those, 12783 indicated that they were Afrikaans speakers.
1:160 there ought to be 162 van Rensburgs in NZ

Australia - 2001 - 79,380 South Africans http://www.newcomersnetwork.com/mel/information/links/c.php#2
1:160 there ought to be 496 van Rensburgs in Australia

Canada
In Canada there are about 25 000 people who were born in the Republic of South Africa, but the total could be nearly 60 000, if descendants of South Africans are included.
56% of these South African-born people live in Ontario;
25 % live in British Columbia;
10 % live in Alberta.
Toronto is home to 40% of South Africans in Canada. Many live in the Greater Toronto area.
Vancouver has approximately 15% of the South African population in Canada,
and Montreal 5%.
73% of South Africans living in Canada are white, 25% are of British descent, 20% are of Jewish origin and 35% have multiple European origins.
Most South Africans of all backgrounds migrated after 1971.

The 2001 census had 2 categories for South Africans: Afrikaner (2000+) and South African (18000+)

According the the phone books for 2003 there where the following number of entries for "van Rensburgs". If we said that for each phone number it represented 4 persons, then the expected number should be -

(note the first number below is the number of phone entries)
NZ - 18 X 4 = 72
Aussie - 44 X 4 =176
Canada - 16 X 4 = 64
In the Canadian phone book there are also liste three Janse Van Rensburg

It seems strange that there are not even greater numbers of van Rensburgs taking this figures into account.

Studying a surname like "van Rensburg" has got great advantages, sincete once can presume that there is a 99% chance that the person is from South Afircan origin. The exception seems to be America and the Netherlands where the surname "Rensburg" does occur.
