Research notes
[SRC-559] Named on line 3 of the 1822 Beaufort roll as the wife of Hermanus Carel du PreezM, with KLAARE STROOM against them in the leenings-plaats column.
[TREE] Born 27 April 1772 in the Roggeveld, died 7 December 1857 at Cape Town, fourteen children. HER NAME IS WHAT IDENTIFIED HER HUSBAND: the tree holds two men called Hermanus Carel du PreezM and only one of them is married to her.
Place strings are the tree's own and are treated as claims under 5, not as evidence.
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.
