Research notes
[7 Aug 2026] Brought into the project from a gravestone. eGGSA photograph and transcribe the stone in the Remhoogte 167 farm cemetery (first ground) as 'Hendrik Johannes NeethlingH 1795-1863'; the family tree holds a person of that name whose birth AND death years both agree exactly. HOW THIS PERSON CONNECTS TO THE PROJECT: 3 steps - child of Hendrik Ludolph NeethlingM → sibling of Martienis Lourentius Neethling → married to Jeane Francoise DuminyM - who is Jeane Francoise DuminyM [PER-000815], already here. The path is drawn from the private tree's parentage and marriages, which is what [TREE] kinship rests on; the tree's PLACES are not used. Matched on name plus both years, never on name alone.
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.
