Stories

• about this farm Op 15 April 1841 word huurgrond plaaseiendom
  Een landmeter meet die Koup twee seisoene lank op. Agt jaar later, op een dag, maak die Kroon 'n dosyn leningsplase titelgrond - en die distrik se kaart lê vir 'n eeu vas.
• about this farm Rondawel se geskiedenis: van 'n weduwee se kruisie tot vandag se Marincowitz-plaas
  Van 'n weduwee wat met 'n merk geteken het tot die Marincowitz-plaas van vandag: die gedokumenteerde geskiedenis van Rondabel Nr. 124 - die Venter-huishouding van 1829, die toekenningsdag van 1841, die Oosthuizen-Theron-vennootskap van 1868, die onderverdelings van 1910-34, en die grafte by die opstal, waarvan een nou 'n naam het.
• mentions this farm Middelwater se storie sedert 1777
  Van 'n leningsplaas in die Swartberg tot agt kadastrale persele: die gedokumenteerde geskiedenis van Middelwater Nr. 169 - Stretch se opmeting van 1833 vir Okert Oosthuizen, die toekenningsdag van 1841, die heropmeting van 1883 en die kwitrent van 1884 aan J.D.J. Oosthuysen 'and another', die gedeeltes wat afgesny is vir 'n fontein genaamd Vaste Water en 'n plek genaamd Avondrust, en die kraglynopmeting van 1990 waarvan die koördinate die plaas uiteindelik op 'n kaart gesit het.
• mentions this farm Vrolykheid se storie
  Die plaas waar die papier en die mense verskil. Stretch se opmeting van 1833 dra al klaar die name van gedeeltes wat eers 'n eeu later gesny word; twee titels gaan op een dag in 1841 uit, een aan 'n Oosthuisen en een aan 'n 'N. Hitge' wie se akte deur vier latere gedeeltes aangehaal word; 'n Triëstenaar trou in 1844 met 'n Hitge en hou die plaas toe hy in 1890 sterf; en 'n sterfkennis sit die Hitges uiteindelik self op die grond.
• set here Twee Vrolykheid-plase, ver van mekaar?
  Twee plase met een naam, 400 km uitmekaar. Die Tulbagh-kaart van 1816 noem vier bure; twee van daardie vanne duik in die Koup op en net EEN hou stand as jy behoorlik kyk. Jan de Bruin, wie se boedel in 1823 'n plaas met die naam Rondabel gehou het, is in 1769 op Tulbagh gedoop. Maar die Theron wat Rondabel in 1868 geneem het, was 'n Roggeveld-man, en daardie draad is 'n toeval van vanne wat hier as een aangemeld word.
• about this farm Minerale onder ons grond
  Vier keer het mense hierheen gekom, oortuig dat daar iets van waarde onder die grond lê: goud in 1871 en 1891, olie in die middel-1960's, uraan van 1969 tot 1985, en skaliegas van 2011 af. 'n Boorbeitel lê nog op Rondabel. Die gate wat SOEKOR vir olie geboor het, het die kerne gelewer wat die skaliegasskatting vyftig jaar later laat krimp het.
• mentions this farm Almero, en hoe dit 'n Oosthuizen-naam geword het, 1786
  'n Venesiaanse tiener in die Kompanjie se diens staan in 1786 peetvader by 'n Kaapse doop. Ses geslagte Karoo-boere dra sy naam, en niemand weet meer waarom nie.
• mentions this farm Die grond gesny, en toe weer aanmekaargewerk
  Hierdie projek het 124 grensdade op rekord: 96 onderverdelings en 20 konsolidasies. Gesorteer op datum vertel hulle een storie met 'n draaipunt. Die distrik het honderd-en-vyftig jaar lank net gesny; van 1970 af word net weer aanmekaargewerk.
• mentions this farm Die woorde uit die bronne, 1753–1971
  Elke aanhaling hieronder kom uit 'n dokument in hierdie projek se eie versameling. Niks hier is opgesoek nie; die woordelys was reeds in die papiere.
• mentions this farm Vier grootouers, vier lande, vanaf 1684
  Elkeen van die vier grootouers het sy eie bladsy. Hierdie een gaan oor hoe hulle bymekaargekom het, wat drie troues, vier jaar en een man wat in twee van hulle ingetrou het, gekos het. En oor die titel se belofte: vier lande, waarvan net een op 'n kaart aangewys kan word.
• mentions this farm Die Oosthuizens van die Koup
  Die familie waaroor die rekord hier die diepste loop. Agt geslagte ooswaarts, van 'n soldaat wat in 1685 op Tafelbaai se strand stap tot 'n boer wat in 1909 op Prince Albert gedoop word. 'n Boedelinventaris van 1809 wys 'n smidsvuur op die Olifantsrivier en verklaar meteens waarom die familie weg is: die plaas is aan die oudste seun verkoop, en die res moes grond gaan soek.
• mentions this farm Die Jouberts en Duminys van die wynland
  Drie van Frans se vier grootouers kom uit families wat die droë land ingeloop en daar gebly het. Dit is die vierde, en dit is die vreemde een: 'n lyn wat nooit in die Karoo gewoon het nie. En tog bereik die familie die Prins Albert-distrik drie keer in twee-en-veertig jaar, elke keer deur 'n vrou.
• set here Twee troues, vyf maande uitmekaar
  In October 1807 an Oosthuizen son married a Venter at Swellendam; five months later his brother married a Strydom at Uitenhage, 242 km the other way. Neither was a single marriage - seven of eleven children of one household married into just two families, and married brothers and sisters in both. It is also why Rondabel changed hands three times inside one family network.

Oop vrae

• The graves at the Rondabel huis - one named, and how many there are is not settled prioriteit 1 · LEAD-0011

  Who lies in the two graves close to the Rondabel farmhouse?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Reading the stones, or a burial entry naming the farm

• Which Rondabel - Tarka (east) or Traka (Koup)? prioriteit 1 · LEAD-0014

  Do the 1818 du Plessis and 1823 de Bruin inventories ('leeningsplaats Rondabel aan de Tarca / in Tarka') describe the Prince Albert Rondabel No. 124 (PAR-000009), or a namesake loan farm in the eastern-Cape Tarka?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Placing Greyling's or van Wyk's veldkornetskap, or a loan-farm register entry locating the leeningsplaats Rondabel.

• Which congregation baptised Jan de Bruijn in 1769? prioriteit 1 · LEAD-0030

  The register page (SRC-168) gives the entry in full but not the church. If it is Roodezand/Tulbagh, the de Bruin family is a Tulbagh family and the Vrolykheid name-transfer of LEAD-0010 has a documented carrier. If it is Drakenstein or Swellendam, it does not.

  Wat dit sou uitmaak The waypoint. This is a thirty-second lookup, not a research task.

• The Rondabel du Plessis ARE kin - Martha and Daniel are first cousins prioriteit 1 · LEAD-0272

  MARTHA DU PLESSIS (PER-000750, 1730-1796) married Petrus VenterM on 14 October 1753 and their son is JAN LOUIS VENTER (PER-000120, b.1754) - father of the sixteen Venter children, of whom Adriana Cecilia married the root Oosthuizen and Maria Catharina held Rondabel by 1829. So du Plessis is a DIRECT ANCESTRAL SURNAME one generation above the Venter bloc, and that part is not in doubt. | Two other du Plessis touch the same farm. IGNATIUS MICHAEL DU PLESSIS (PER-000050, d.1818) held HALF THE OPSTAL of a loan farm called Rondabel. CECILIA MARIA DU PLESSIS (PER-001346, 1857-1895) died on Rondabel and is buried there (GRV-0021, DOC-0333). Is either of them kin to Martha, and is Ignatius Michael's Rondabel even the same farm?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A shared father and mother for Daniel and Martha du PlessisM.

• The Rondavel Venters - parentage, the two Jan Louis Venters, and Wolwekraal prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0015

  (a) Who were Jan Adriaan VenterL's (PER-000350) parents - vernoeming suggests a father named Willem; (b) who are 'Jan Louis VenterL j:r' and 'the widow of Jan Louis VenterL' in the 1829 debts, given the tree kills Johanna Jacomina SmitM in 1824 and a Jan Louis witnesses a baptism in 1837; (c) is the Wolwekraal grantee Johannes Hendrik VenterL (PER-000095) the widow's brother Johannes Henricus (); (d) 8 Nov vs 8 Dec 1823 for Jan Adriaan jr (PER-000096); (e) when did the Venters arrive on Rondavel and how did it pass to the Strydoms by the 1833 survey?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Registers and the two grant/survey files.

• Where exactly is Vischat / 'fisgat', and what is its real name? prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0018

  Vischat is where Frans's grandfather Hendrik Lodewyk Malherbe OosthuizenM farmed until 1979 and where his father CJJ grew up, yet the model has no ground for it: no extent, no geometry, no ownership row, no document. Which parcel does it actually sit on, and is the name Vischgat/Visgat?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak The purchase deed - it will name the parcel Vischat forms part of. Failing that, a topo sheet showing the werf, or CJJ simply saying which farm it was on.

• Reopen: is the 1818/1823 Rondabel of the inventories ours or an eastern namesake? prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0092

  Were the field cornets Stephanus van Wyk (1818) and Abraham Greyling (1815) Koup wards or eastern Graaff-Reinet wards?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A ward list for Graaff-Reinet and for Beaufort in those years.

• Three Orphan Chamber inventories put Rondabel 'in the Tarka' and this model pins them to farm 124 prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0183

  INV-0001 (MOOC8/64.12a, 1818), INV-0002 (MOOC8/38.12, 1823) and INV-0027 (MOOC8/44.48, 1829) are all linked to PAR-000009, Rondabel No. 124 near Klaarstroom, yet each describes the place as lying in the Tarka or Traka. Is that this Rondabel?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A district named alongside 'Tarka' in the 1818 or 1823 inventory, or a chain of holders running from these estates into the 1841 grantee of farm 124.

• Who were Cecilia Maria du Plessis's parents - and was Rondabel her own family's ground first? prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0267

  PER-001346, buried at Rondabel in 1895, has NO parents in this model. Two du Plessis holdings of Rondabel sit fifty years apart: Ignatius Michael du PlessisH (PER-000050, d.1818) held it as a LOAN FARM before 1818 with Jan de BruinH (OWN-000025), and Cecilia Maria du Plessis married into the Theron family that was co-granted it in 1868. Is there any descent between them, or is it a coincidence of one of the commonest surnames at the Cape?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Her father's name, and whether he descends from Ignatius Michael du PlessisH.

• An eleventh child: the daughter of two months on Cecilia Maria Theron's death notice prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0268

  Her death notice of 1895 (DOC-0333) records ELEVEN children - nine living and two dead. This model holds TEN. The form's two deceased are a SON of 7 months and a DAUGHTER of 2 months. The model holds one deceased child, Johannes Gysbert (PER-001169), and no deceased daughter at all. Who was she, and when?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A baptism or burial entry for a Theron daughter of Petrus Jacobus and Cecilia Maria between 1892 and 1895.

• Two identity questions opened by the Theron kin map: which Jan Adriaan holds Rondabel, and which Venter married into it prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0269

  (1) OWN-000021, the Rondabel quitrent grant of 21 January 1868, is recorded against PER-000046 'Jan Adriaan OosthuizenL', a row with NO dates. Is he Ockert Almero and Adriana Cecilia's son Johannes Adriaan (PER-000003, 1816-1882)? If so the two grantees are brothers-in-law, because the other is Stephanus Johannes TheronL who married that man's sister Dina Magdalena. (2) Isabella Louise Jacoba VenterM (PER-001345, 1875-1939), second wife of Petrus Jacobus TheronL - has she any descent from Adriana Cecilia VenterM's family, or is the surname a coincidence?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak (1) The grantee's given names and any age or farm on the 1868 title. (2) Isabella's parents.

• Martha du Plessis (1730-1796) - who were her parents? prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0273

  She married Petrus VenterM on 14 October 1753 and their son Jan Louis VenterL fathered the sixteen Venter children of STO-0046, three of whom married Oosthuizens and one of whom held Rondabel by 1829. She has no parents recorded here.

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Her father's name.

• Anna Maria Theron, born 13 January 1827 in the Klein Roggeveld - a sister the model does not hold prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0274

  The 1828 register opening that gives Stephanus Johannes TheronL's baptism (SRC-546) carries, immediately above it, ANNA MARIA, born 13 January 1827, same parents - Petrus Jacobus TheronL and Aletta Francina Botma - and the same veldcornetcy, Klein Roggeveld. This model holds only ONE child of that couple: Stephanus Johannes. How many were there, and does any other of them come to the Koup?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak The full sibship, and whether any sibling other than Stephanus Johannes turns up on Koup ground.

• Vischat, Vischgat or Visgat, and where does the name come from? prioriteit 3 · LEAD-0024

  The place is now located (PLC-000034, on Rondabel). What is its actual name, and does any document use it?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Any document or map using the name, or CJJ simply saying it.

• The drill bit on Rondabel, whose rig, and which of the four searches? prioriteit 3 · LEAD-0051

  There is a drill bit on Tokkie's farm Rondabel (PAR-000009) from exploration drilling, which Frans remembers as French and dates to the 1950s, 60s or 70s. Whose was it?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A photograph of the maker's mark, or a borehole on Rondabel in the national register.

• Oosthuizen Marincowitz: Rondawel or Koppieskraal, and who was his brother Boy? prioriteit P2 · LEAD-0344

  Two accounts in one book put a man called Oosthuizen Marincowitz on two different farms in the same war. Which was his, and is 'Boy' a fourth Marincowitz this project does not hold?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A baptism or marriage naming the brothers together, or a deed or lease putting a Marincowitz on Koppieskraal.

Wat die rekord kortkom

• 27 years, and the ground changes hands to nobody we can follow second order · B1 succession

  On Rondabel, David Jan StrydomH (Daniel son) is the last owner recorded from 1841-04-15, and the next entry is Jan Adriaan OosthuizenL and Stephanus Johannes TheronL from 1868-01-21, 27 years later, with no person in common. DOC-0186 records the later arrival but not the 27 years before it.

  What would settle it The Deeds Office transfer register for this farm between 1841 and 1868. A transfer names its predecessor in title, so one deed closes the whole gap.

Found by breaks.py reading the model against itself, not written by hand, each one is a shape of missing record, not a fault in the data. The whole set is on the questions page.
