The findings of a study undertaken by the Port Shepstone Twinning Association, a local NGO dedicated to heritage work. The researchers used archival records of 152,184 Indian indentured workers in Natal to compile a detailed list of those assigned to work in Port Shepstone between 1876 and 1911. The study found that 3,307 individuals were indentured within the Port Shepstone community. Of these workers, about 612 returned to India after completing their five-year contracts, while 30 died during their indenture period.
