Reverend Berthold Albu was the first spiritual leader of the Griqualand West Hebrew Congregation, appointed in 1876. According to the JewishGen Susser Archive, he was probably related to the South African mining magnates Sir George and Leopold Albu. Margaret Albu, grand-daughter of Reverend Albu, was a concert pianist. In 1931 she married John Logie Baird, inventor and developer of the world's first television system.
