Die historiese grootte en die moderne opgemete oppervlakte is twee aparte metings en word hier nie aangebied asof hulle mekaar bevestig nie. Die eerste is wat 'n landmeter op 'n kaart geskryf het, gewoonlik in morg. Die tweede is wat die moderne kadaster teken.

Stories

• mentions 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.
• mentions this farm Die manne wat die grenslyne getrek het
  Elke plaas hier kom deur twee manne se hande: 'n veldkornet wat die grond en die mense geken het, en 'n landmeter wat per blad betaal is. Twee-en-veertig landmetersname oor 172 jaar, 'n eeu se wyksbeamptes, en 'n wyksgrens wat met die hand op 'n 1934-kaart verskuif word. Die eerste landmeter, C. Lennox Stretch, is later deur sy eie regering afgedank omdat hy die Xhosa se kant gekies het.
• set here Die oorlog bereik die Koup
  The Anglo-Boer War came to these farms twice: up the road from Klaarstroom on 2 February 1901, when a running fight through Die Gang left three men dead, a Boer of Scheepers's commando and two British soldiers, and a farmer buried all three; and quietly in 1903, when a woman from Tulbagh married into a Prince Albert family having lost two brothers in Natal thirty-four days apart.
• mentions this farm Oom Frikkie se een-en-tagtig duisend morg, 1856–1937
  Frederik Simon 'Oom Frikkie' Oosthuizen sterf in 1936 met, volgens een weergawe, 81 000 morg om Zwartkraal, omtrent 'n kwart van al die grond op hierdie kaart. Hierdie projek besit nie een akte op sy naam nie. Waarin die geld waarskynlik gesit het, waarin dit beslis nie gesit het nie, en watter een dokument die saak sou uitmaak.

6. 2 Februarie 1901 event Johannes Kleu (d. 1901, Remhoogte) (omstreeks 1878–2 Februarie 1901)
   [SRC-010, Rose Willis Klaarstroom cameo. TERTIARY, TO VERIFY] The Boers caught the retreating Yeomanry at REMHOOGTE, a farmstead beside the old Prince Albert road, and shot the horses from under them. Lance-Corporal J. Boyd, wounded, sheltered at Wolwekloof; Johannes Kleu, a 23-year-old unarmed rebel walking home to Aberdeen, stumbled on him and was shot dead. That night Scheepers's men stayed at BLOEMENDAL. On 5 February they slipped north across the Witteberg via Boesmanskloof, SLEUTELFONTEIN and BOTTERSKRAAL, reaching ZEEKOEGAT on 7 February and looting two shops. Four of those farms are in this model. || *** [7 Sep 2026, SRC-172 pp.11-13 and SRC-632] THE FARM IS SETTLED AND THE FAMILY IS NAMED. *** Two patrols out of Prince Albert under Capt. McDowell and Lt. Torrane rode towards Klaarstroom on 2 February, took three Boer scouts on the way, saw how many Boers held the village and turned back. 'The Boers gave chase and NEAR THE FARM REMHOOGTE began to close in.' Eight of the Yeomanry were taken with their horses shot under them; Sgt.-Maj. Jackson and Tpr. Mobsby dismounted under fire to get Col. Parke back into the saddle and Jackson was captured doing it; Corp. Boyd was fatally wounded. JOHANNES KLEU DIED IN THE HOUSE. p.13: he 'was seriously wounded and was left behind with the Du Plessis family at Remhoogte'. The family's own account is SRC-632, from Miemie de Wit (PER-002051), who was ten and in the house: the wounded Englishman hid in Wolwekloof, Kleu came upon him, and the Englishman shot him at point blank range through the chest. Her father ROELOF DU PLESSIS (PER-002050) carried him in through the back door and laid him in the room at the far end of the stoep, where he died, and buried him quietly that night. WHICH REMHOOGTE: THE QUESTION FLAGGED ON THIS ROW IS ANSWERED, AND IT IS REIM HOOGTE No. 167. The book states the distance twice and from two different informants - p.36, Anna Snyders: 'the farm Remhoogte, 40 km from Prince Albert on the Klaarstroom road'; p.45, of the grave: 'Forty kilometers from Prince Albert on the farm Remhoogte'. Measured against this project's own cadastre, Reim Hoogte No. 167 (PAR-000092) lies 36.9 km from Prince Albert in a straight line, which is about 40 km by road; Rhemhoogte No. 125 (PAR-000068) lies 46.3 km in a straight line, which cannot be 40 km by road. The grave's own coordinate, which came from eGGSA and not from the book, already sat on 167. Three independent things agree, so the affair belongs on Reim Hoogte No. 167 and the cameo's filing under Rhemhoogte No. 125 is wrong. BOYD WAS BURIED BESIDE HIM AND DID NOT STAY. p.13: 'Boyd was also buried at Remhoogte but after the war his remains were reinterred in the graveyard of the Anglican Church of the Good Shepherd at Klaarstroom.' Miemie de Wit watched it: he 'was buried 50 yards from the Boer. After the war his wife in England asked that he be reinterred. I can well remember the grave being opened.'

Oop vrae

• The du Plessis of Reim Hoogte No. 167 - answered: they are Cecilia Maria's own family prioriteit 1 · LEAD-0275

  The farm cemetery on REIM HOOGTE No. 167 (CEM-025) holds six du Plessis, and three of them are now named: JOHANNES GYSBERTUS (1826-1913) and JOHANNA ELIZABETH VAN ROOYEN (1831-1913), the parents of Cecilia Maria du Plessis who is buried on Rondabel; and JACOBUS JOHANNES PETRUS (1869-1941), who bought Rossel Erf on that farm in 1908. Is he their son and her brother? And who are ENA (1907-1926), GERTRUIDA ALIDA (1882-1970) and SUSANNA FREDERIKA (1920-1945)?

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A register or a FamilySearch parentage for Jacobus Johannes Petrus du PlessisH b. 21 June 1869. The stones have been read and cannot answer it.

• Who asked the Kleu family at Aberdeen in 1948, and who answered? prioriteit P1 · LEAD-0335

  Rose Willis: 'Years later, in 1948, Johannes KleuH's family in Aberdeen were asked if they wanted his remains to be moved to a more suitable graveyard. They refused, saying that he should be allowed to rest in peace.' WHO WAS ASKED, AND BY WHOM? A named correspondent in 1948 identifies the family this project cannot reach through genealogy.

  Wat dit sou uitmaak Any 1948 letter, form or minute naming the Kleu next of kin at Aberdeen. One name and one address closes both this lead and LEAD-0332.

• Identify R du Plessis of Remhoogte and his daughter Miemie prioriteit P2 · LEAD-0336

  Which du Plessis owned Reim Hoogte 167 in February 1901, and who was the ten-year-old Miemie whose memory carries the whole story? Neither is identified and both are one degree from the only war grave in this district.

  Wat dit sou uitmaak A transfer or a valuation roll naming the holder of Reim Hoogte 167 in 1901.

Wat die rekord kortkom

• The record stops in 1841 and never resumes second order · B2 trail-ends

  Reim Hoogte Nr. 167 was worked as far as 1841-04-15, with Willem Johannes GousH the last owner on record. 185 years follow with nothing. Who held it after that, and is it still one farm?

  What would settle it The current title deed traced backwards, each transfer names the one before it, or the Surveyor-General's subdivision diagrams, which are what usually explain a farm going quiet.

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.
