Research notes
[FS] LBSZ-4W4, born 1739 and dead in 1740, the year her mother died. SHE IS THE CHECK ON THE INVENTORY: the estate of 29 December 1740 names only TWO children, Charl Johannes and the newborn Elsje Petronella, so she was already gone when the clerk wrote (SRC-691). Mother and daughter in one year.
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.
