Others of the same name

Afrikaans naming repeats hard, and the Cape Dutch naming pattern reuses a name on purpose, a child who died young has the name given again to a later sibling. These are different people. Never match on a name alone.

Research notes

[FamilySearch, 29 Jul 2026] Sister of PER-000005.

[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000382 into this row. Both rows carry FamilySearch id GL4G-3QF, so they are one person. Kept PER-000155 ('Adriana Cecilia OosthuizenL (b.1847)'); merged PER-000382 ('Adriana Cecilia OOSTHUIZEN'). Exposed by the _FID backfill of 31 Jul 2026, which gave nearly every person an id to collide on; before that these had no shared key. Check GL4G-3QF on FamilySearch before assuming the upstream tree needs anything - it is usually the LOCAL tree that is stale (LEAD-0021). Moved across: tree id=. DISAGREEMENTS, kept rather than resolved - the FamilySearch id settles these in one click: display_name: kept 'Adriana Cecilia OosthuizenL (b.1847)', PER-000382 said 'Adriana Cecilia OOSTHUIZEN'; surname: kept 'Oosthuizen', PER-000382 said 'OOSTHUIZEN'; birth_edtf: kept '1847', PER-000382 said '1853'.

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.
