Cornelis Andries Oosthuizen
No dates recorded · Oosthuizen line
No birth date is recorded for this person. The family puts an outer limit on it: born no later than 1872, because their father died 1871. That is a hard limit, it cannot be otherwise. It is an upper bound and not a birth year, and nothing in the model records it as one.

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.
