Research notes
In the model because this project holds its original survey diagram: loan place of 2343 morgen, surveyed for Ignatius Michael van Rooyen; Geo. Q. 5.20 [SG 256/1821]
The research behind this page, kept separate from it: dated working notes, open questions, and what is not yet settled.

Nobody is on record as ever having held this
third order · B8 never-held
Rietvalley No. 76 (Oudtshoorn) is in the model and drawn on the map, and carries no ownership record of any kind, not a grant, not a transfer, not an occupation.
What would settle it The Surveyor-General's diagram for the farm number names the grantee and the date; the deed reference on it opens the transfer chain.
Found by breaks.py reading the model against itself, not written by hand,
each one is a shape of missing record, not a fault in the data.
The whole set is on the
questions page.
