The citation as it was given
Fully legible and transcribed verbatim on DOC-0336. 5136 morgen 73 square roods of Government ground, Lot B of Vogelstruis Leegte, Fd Cornetcy of TRAKA, Division of PRINCE ALBERT. | The stated extent converts to about 4,399 ha against the cadastre's 4,468 ha for farm 38 - a 1.5% difference, which is ordinary between an 1862 survey and the modern polygon and is itself a check that the right polygon was matched. | Part 2 writes the western neighbour as Slagters KRUIS where Part 1 and SG 1911/1862 both write Slagters KUIL. [TO VERIFY]
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.
