Wolwekloof, Reim Hoogte 167 (the Kleu grave)
1 graves recorded · 1 identified in this project · Reim Hoogte No. 167
ONE GRAVE, AND IT IS DELIBERATELY NOT THE FARM CEMETERY. Renamed 7 Sep 2026 from 'Reim Hoogte 167 farm cemetery', which was wrong and said the opposite of what the record says. SRC-172, Helena Marincowitz, *Prince Albert and the Anglo-Boer War (1899-1902)*, Fransie Pienaar Museum, 1999 p.34: 'The unmarked grave, which can still be seen, is not in the family graveyard on Remhoogte and is now practically overgrown.' p.45 places it 'in Wolwekloof near the present farm homestead'. The farm's two family grounds are CEM-025 and CEM-026, about 420 m away. Johannes Kleu lies apart because Roelof du Plessis buried him at night in the kloof where he was shot on 2 February 1901, and because his family at Aberdeen afterwards asked that he be left where he was.

A name links to its own photograph on the eGGSA site, which holds the picture of the stone. Names and dates in this table are eGGSA transcriptions except where a stone was read here.
Photographed here, not yet read
3 photographs of this ground carry a caption on eGGSA that nothing in this project has yet matched to a person. The words are eGGSA's transcription of the stone, kept exactly as written; nobody here has read the photograph. Each one links to its own page on their site.

The photographs are eGGSA's and stay on their site; this project links to them and does not copy them. Their albums are expressly incomplete, so a name missing here is not evidence that person is not buried here.
