dc.description.abstract	In the 1830s the slaves made up a significant proportion of the population of Cape Town and were closely integrated into the community in terms of occupation, residence, and personal relationships. They constituted about one-third of Cape Town's total population at that time and about sixty percent of the Coloured population. The effects of changes involving them were therefore bound to be important. St Andrew's was the first church in Cape Town to open its membership to Blacks which this accounts for the fact that ex-slave converts joined this congregation and not other churches.	en
