The citation as it was given
FETCHED 20 Aug 2026 because *** THERE IS NO SUCH PLAN, AND THIS IS THE NEAREST THING. *** Every one of the 255 named farms in the Uniondale registration division was queried against the CSG document index on 20 Aug 2026 and exactly ONE general plan came back: this one, and it covers FIVE FARMS in the north of the division, not the division. The Oudtshoorn plan has no Uniondale counterpart in the index. | WHAT IS ON IT: the five farms named in the title, with Wilgerivier and Wilgehouts Rivier to the west, Kromlaagte and Windvogels Kraal to the north-west, Naugas Fontein and Quas to the east, Rietfontein to the south, and Leased Crownland Lots 73, 710 and 40 around them. | IT DOES NOT CARRY FIELD-CORNETCIES, so it cannot answer the Boven Olifants question the way SRC-493 answered the Lower Olifants one. What answers that question instead is the division's own name list - see SRC-510 - which holds no Modderfontein.
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.
