Ander van dieselfde naam

Afrikaans naming repeats hard, and the Cape Dutch naming pattern reuses a name on purpose, a child who died young has the name given again to a later sibling. These are different people. Never match on a name alone.

Navorsingsnotas

[SRC-074] Sibling of Frans's great-grandmother Francoise Jeanne DuminyM (PER-000076) and of Maria Johanna, who married into the Zeekoegat Oosthuizens.

[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000680 into this row. PROVEN DUPLICATE, resolved on the FamilySearch id. Both rows carry GM5M-55X; an FS id names one person, so these are one person recorded twice. Created by the 31 Jul 2026 one-degree tree pull, which matched on tree id alone - and 255 model people carry no tree id, so any of them one hop from a tree-linked person was added again. Survivor is the pre-existing row; it carries the prose, sources and land links. Moved across: sex=M; tree id=. Dates sharpened from the merged row: birth_edtf 1884 -> 1884-10-01; death_edtf 1938 -> 1938-01-29. DISAGREEMENTS, kept rather than resolved - the FamilySearch id settles these in one click: display_name: kept 'Francois Jean van Helslandt DuminyL (b.1884)', PER-000680 said 'Francois Jean Van Helslandt Duminy'.

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.

Oop vrae

Duplicate candidates from the one-degree pull, settled on FamilySearch ids prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0035
38 people added on 31 Jul 2026 share a name AND a birth YEAR with somebody already in the model, and 32 share a name with no date at all. Are they the same people?

Wat dit sou uitmaak A full birth or baptism date on either side of a pair. Name plus YEAR is not enough here and must not be treated as enough.
