Research notes
[15 Aug 2026] DIRECT ANCESTOR - father of Elizabeth Catharina Louisa "Katriena" Pepler (PER-001830), the woman in the oldest photograph here. Married Elisabeth Catharina de VilliersH 14 September 1794; ten children recorded. HIS NAME IS THE EVIDENCE: his grandson Hendrik Lodewyk MalherbeL (PER-000755) carries it exactly, in the second-son slot of the vernoemingspatroon, which is where the mother's father belongs.
Source: the family tree exports, the direct-ancestor one of 2,737 people and the fuller one of 7,727, both of which carry FamilySearch ids. [TREE] [FS] Dates are the tree's and are not register-precise. NO PLACE IS TAKEN FROM EITHER FILE - 5 treats family-tree place strings as hostile and these are the auto-geocoded kind.
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.
