Ebenhaezer, (yet another way to spell it probably Dutch.) is a settlement in West Coast District Municipality in the Western Cape province of South Africa. A mission station of the Rhenish Missionary Society at the mouth of the Olifants River in the former Vanrhynsdorp district was established here by a German named Wurmb in 1831.
Ebenezer is a biblical name. Back in the day people valued using biblical names to name their children. Now they prefer the names of celebrities. Ebenezer was not considered an unusual/uncommon name around the time of the Civil War. It only became negatively associated due to the first part of the famous Dickens' book. Eben is a more common variation and a perfectly nice name.
