Rietvalley 91_2, Rietvlei farm cemetery
8 graves recorded · 1884–1977
KEPT FOR ITS FAMILIES, NOT FOR ITS GROUND - this project does not hold this farm. [FAMILY] Look at all prins albert rural cemetery for connection and include, even if farm not on project. The families on these stones that this project follows are: Botes, Niehaus, Rossouw, Snyders. That is a connection by SURNAME and district, not an identification of any individual; where a person here is later matched to the tree on name and dates, their grave row will say so.

Photographed here, not yet read
9 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. 7 further photographs of this ground are already in the table above.

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.
