Wat ons nie weet nie

• Geen geboortedatum is aangeteken nie.
• Geen sterfdatum is aangeteken nie.
• Nie een ouer is aangeteken nie, dus hang hierdie mens nie aan die boom bo hom of haar nie.
• Geen gedateerde rekord bind hierdie mens aan 'n bepaalde stuk grond nie.

A sourced gap beats an unsourced fill. These are the open questions on this person, stated rather than papered over.

Navorsingsnotas

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.

Die werksnotas op hierdie werf word in Engels gehou en word nie vertaal nie. Hulle verander met elke navorsingsessie, en 'n vertaling sou uit pas raak met die oorspronklike. Alles anders — die stories, die getranskribeerde dokumente en die koppelvlak — is in Afrikaans.

Wat die rekord kortkom

• An estate taken on ground we cannot place second order · B6 loose-doc

  DOC-0034 (MOOC8/40.55, 1826-02-23) lists a household's whole movable estate, which means officials went to where that household lived. It names no place at all. No parcel is attached, so the family it describes sits nowhere on the map.

  What would settle it The inventory's own heading usually names the farm and the field-cornetcy; where it does not, the deceased's quitrent or opgaaf entry for that year will. This is the shape that produced the de Bruin/Rondabel find.

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.
