THE MAP FACE, AND IT IS THE RICHEST BOUNDARY LIST IN THIS BATCH. Same diagram and approval as sheet 1; scale 1:100 000. Titled "PORTION 2 OF THE FARM RIETFONTEIN NO. 12". NEIGHBOURS, AS LETTERED ON THE FACE: "Portion 7" and "Portion 1" and "Remainder", all of Rietfontein No. 12 itself; "Administrative District Beaufort West, The Farm Kaffirs Kraal No. 380" across the district line; "Portion 15 of Brits Eigendom No. 374"; three small pieces marked "Ptn.10", "Portion 11" and "Ptn.5"; "Ptn 1 of Rietpoort No. 13" and "Remainder of Riet Poort No. 13"; "Portion 2 of Antjes Fontein No. 14"; "Portion 1 of the farm No. 215"; "Spreeu Fontein No. 26"; and "Portion 1 of Rietfontein No. 12". Trigonometrical beacon "Grootrivier 11" falls inside the figure. WHAT THIS JOINS: Rietfontein No. 12 touches Spreeufontein, Antjesfontein and farm 215 all at once, which puts it against both the Swanepoel block and one of the five written-up farms.

Kept verbatim. This project contradicts published genealogies and corrects a family's own oral tradition, so every claim has to be checkable by someone who was not in the room.
