Research notes

[FS LB7K-LLT] ELDEST OF THE TWELVE CHILDREN of Gerhardus Francois Beukes (PER-000029) and Aletta Sophia Jacoba NiemannM. Married Carel Johannes Gysbert FreysenH at Prince Albert, 25 March 1889. Her infant daughter is buried on Varsche Fontein (GRV-0028) and her father twelve years later (GRV-0016) - which is how a Freysen stone comes to stand in a Beukes cemetery. NOT KIN TO THIS FAMILY as far as the tree goes: neither Freysen nor Botes appears among Frans's 2,736 ancestors, and none of these people is in the private tree. On this site because they are on this ground.

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.
