History
Kempton Park lies on two boer farms. The first farm is Zuurfontein No 369 that belonged to Johannes Stephan Marais in 1859 and the second is Rietfontein 32IR that belonged to Cornelius Johannes Beukes in 1865. After discovery of gold in Johannesburg in 1886, a railway connecting Pretoria to Vereeninging to the Cape was constructed in the 1890’s. The railway did not pass through Johannesburg but passed through the two farms with a station called Zuurfontein. Kempton Park was established on 24 August 1903 when a portion of the Zuurfontein farm was sub-divided into 216 Residential Stands.
