Research notes

[TREE] Added 29 Jul 2026 under the people-related-to-the-land rule: child Cornelis Andries OosthuizenL (PER-000015); child Johanna Machteld Petronella StrydomM (PER-000138). Thin record; dates as in the tree.

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.

Open questions

Two Jan Adriaan Oosthuizens, one wife: are PER-000163 and PER-000398 one man? priority 2 · LEAD-0098
PER-000163 (tree, FS GQKX-JX7) and PER-000398 (tree, FS GHXS-ZVD) carry the same name and the same wife, Johanna Susanna De VilliersM born 3 August 1867. Are they one man duplicated upstream, or two men the tree has confused? And whose dates does PER-000163's row actually hold?

What would settle it A death notice. The two candidate deaths are fourteen years and a province apart, so one notice decides it outright.
