About Septimus Catorzia de Villiers

He was the brother of ML de Villiers who is credited with having written the music for Die Stem (the national anthem of the old SA). He was one of 7 brothers, several of whom studied at Oxford, Cambridge and the Royal College of Music. I am trying to track down my great grand parents. Seppie died when my father (Etienne Rocco) was 5 years old. Many of the de Villiers family of Catorzia extraction appear to have inherited sporting and musical genes.
