Navorsingsnotas

[SRC-072] Gave Botterkraal as his address at his marriage in Sep 1915, four years before it was registered to his father. Fenced the whole farm himself with jackal-proof wire with his four eldest sons, drove 900 merino wethers home on foot from Colesberg over two months, and lost the farm anyway - sold 6 Jun 1943 to pay debts. The family took relief from the ACVV between 1933 and 1939. Died 30 Jan 1948 in Rondebosch Hospital; buried in an unmarked grave at Woltemade, Cape Town.

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

The record stops in 1943 and never resumes third order · B2 trail-ends
Botterkraal (Jansenskraal Nr. 104 Gdlt 2) was worked as far as 1943-06-06, with Christiaan Hendrik Swanepoel jnrH (b6c5d7e3f7g5) the last owner on record. 83 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.
“Estate late P.J. Swanepoel” held ground next door and we have no tenure for them third order · B4 unheld-owner
A boundary description for Botterkraal (Jansenskraal Nr. 104 Gdlt 2) names Estate late P.J. Swanepoel, a surveyor stating on the record that this person held the adjoining ground. We do hold Swanepoel tenure elsewhere, but none on this boundary and none at this date.

What would settle it The diagram's own date fixes the window. The quitrent or erfpacht register for that year names the holder of the adjoining place, and an estate inventory will name the farm outright.

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.
