  Helen bred Arab horses, which attracted many Overseas and south african visitors to the farm "Roode Bloem". She won many trophies for her horses and her excellent riding at shows.

Marie Trollip married Tim Murray of Roode Bloem and her sister Minnie married George Murray of Goliathskraal. Marie inherited her father's and grandfather's love of horses and became a well-known breeder of Arab horses. She must have had a good seat as at the age of four years she used to ride five kilometres both ways on a Boergoat to fetch the post at Witmos station.
