Calvinia district, Granaat Bosch Kolk 151_1, Granaatboskolk Wes, farm cemetery
0 graves recorded
No one recorded in this project is buried here. The ground is listed because eGGSA has photographed it and a later researcher may be looking for it. eGGSA record no coordinate for this ground, so it is not drawn on the map. A ground with no reading gets a page and no pin: a wrong marker is worse than a missing one, because a map makes a claim look authoritative. Nobody from this project has been to the place. eGGSA album “Granaat_Bosch_Kolk_151_1”, Calvinia-rural collection, GGSA cemetery 5159, GPSID 6161. [12 Aug 2026] The coordinate comes from the album page's own GPS line, read as "GPS: +/- 30 01.825, 19 50.067" and converted from degrees and decimal minutes. The first harvest missed it: its parser matched only the plain "GPS: -33 21.040, 22 38.091" form and eGGSA also write "GPS Approx:", "GPS: +/-" and, in one case, a stray comma after the degrees. EGGSA THEMSELVES MARK THIS ONE APPROXIMATE, and it is recorded as they give it. It locates the ground, not the graves. THE SOURCE OMITS THE MINUS ON THE LATITUDE. It is read as southern: this district lies near 30 degrees SOUTH, and the positive reading would put the grave in the Sahara. The sign is a convention, not a reading.

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.
