Research notes
[FS batch, 2 Sep 2026] Added from FamilySearch descendancy views, to make the KLEU/KLUE naming pattern testable against the search for SUSANNA MARIA KLUE, the transferee of Vaste Water in 1923 (PER-000326). *** WHY A BATCH THIS SIZE IS HERE AT ALL, STATED SO IT IS NOT MISTAKEN FOR CREEP. *** These people hold no ground in this district and 9a's test would normally stop them at the door. Frans's reason is the vernoemingspatroon: SRC-613 shows Johannes Diederich Kleu named for JOHANNES DEDERICK FERREIRA, his mother's people, at the font in 1870, so naming in this family tracks kin and a sibship list is the instrument for finding a Susanna Maria. EVERY ROW IS FROM A COMPILED TREE. Years only, no places, no documents. Nothing here is evidence and none of it should be cited as such. LEAD-0332.
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.

The Kleus of Tweebracht, Aberdeen: are they the family of the Remhoogte war grave?
priority P1 · LEAD-0337
Sebastiaan Johannes KleuL (PER-001959, LLCH-WK5) died at TWEEBRACHT, ABERDEEN on 29 November 1908. Johannes 'Piet' Klue of WATERKLOOF, ABERDEEN was shot at Remhoogte on 2 February 1901. Are Tweebracht and Waterkloof the same household, neighbouring ones, or unrelated? And does this house hold a son born about 1878 to 1880 whom this model does not carry?
What would settle it A Kleu household on WATERKLOOF, Aberdeen, in the 1890s; or a baptism naming a Johannes KleuM born about 1878-80 to this couple; or the Aberdeen death notices for 1901.
