Navorsingsnotas

[SRC-072 + DOC-0004] The government land surveyor who laid out this whole corner of the Karoo. Signed the 1834 diagram of Varsche Fontein and the 1833 surveys of Middelwater, Vrolykheid, Klaarstroom, Rondabel and Vlakfontein. One surveyor, two seasons, and then a single grant day in 1841.

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.
