-------------------------------

Rhoda Trollip came out to SA with her parents and siblings on the Weymouth arriving in Table Bay on 26 April. She and James Lydford Collett were the progenitors of all Colletts in the Cape.

After all troubles and bickering of farming, Rhoda on more than one occasion collapsed into the comparative safety of temporary insanity. At this stage, James devoted all his attention to her. After his death she went to live with her childless daughter at Daggaboer.
