It is located in Region A of the City of Johannesburg Metropolitan Municipality. HistoryVorna Valley derives its name from the Galaun family’s home village of Varniai (Vornia), Lithuania. Jacob and Michelle, Father and Mother of brothers Joseph, Israel, Louis, Harry, Abe and sisters Leah, Malka, Tzira and Zira, lived in Lithuania. Jacob owned a butchery and leased a piece of land on which they kept cattle. Michelle came from a cheese-making family. The Galaun family sold cheese as well as milk to supplement their income from their butchery. Many Jewish youths from Lithuania emigrated due to the military conscription, poverty and anti-semitism. Louis Galaun moved to South Africa where he established himself as an established property developer and owned a bottle store and land known as Halfway House. Louis eventually established the township of Vorna Valley in the 1970’s. The main arterial road was named after his brother, Harry Galaun. While other streets in the suburb were named after mainly South African artists, poets, writers, performers and influential people in the world of arts at that time.[2] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://census2011.adrianfrith.com/place/798004028 |title = Sub Place Vorna Valley |work=Census 2011}} {{Johannesburg-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.africanjewishcongress.com/ZAMBIA3.htm |title=Memorial Service for the late Abe Galaun - 2003 |author=Rabbi Moshe Silberhaft |publisher=African Jewish Congress |date=23 September 2003 |accessdate=5 February 2014}} 1 : Johannesburg Region A |
