Towards the end of the war the Hon. Dr. E. G. Jansen came to live in Irene and not long thereafter became the Governor-General of the Union of South Africa in which high post he served the country well for a number of years. Mrs. Jansen still lives in Irene and has converted her home at the corner of Pioneer Road and King Street into a fine residence in the old Cape Dutch style.
