Almero Jacobus Hitge Oosthuizen baptised at Prince Albert
Born on 18 January 1878 and baptised three weeks later - by now the family is in the Prince Albert congregation, founded within living memory, and the church is close enough that a baptism no longer waits fourteen weeks as his father's did in 1837. Third son, so by the naming pattern he carries his

Navorsingsnotas
[SRC-088] Baptism witness at Prince Albert, 10 Feb 1878 - a Hitge, so the mother's side. CARRIES THE NAME ROY, which recurs much later in Roy Don OosthuizenM (1923-1999). English given names - George, Joseph, Roy - inside an Afrikaans farming family, as with Charles Frederick WRIGHT Oosthuizen (PER-000164). Where the English comes in is an open question.
[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000692 into this row. PROVEN DUPLICATE, resolved on the FamilySearch id. Both rows carry L1MB-VB8; 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: birth_edtf=1821-11-25; death_edtf=1899-06-14; tree id=. DISAGREEMENTS, kept rather than resolved - the FamilySearch id settles these in one click: display_name: kept 'George Joseph Roy HitgeH', PER-000692 said 'George Joseph Roye Hitge'.
[5 Aug 2026, SRC-290/289] HE WAS LIVING ON VONDELING IN 1892. His sister's death notice (SRC-290) says she died 'at the residence of her brother, George Joseph Roy HitgeH, at Vondeling, div. Willowmore'. That is PAR-000127, Vondeling No. 139 - a farm this model had only ever seen as a boundary name on the Haggas and Uitnood diagrams. This is the first person the record places ON it, and he is a Hitge, brother-in-law of Gerolm Marincowitz.
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
-
Seven pairs of siblings born too close together for both to be real
prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0108
Seven mothers in this model have two children whose exact birth dates fall less than ten months apart, twins excluded. For each: are the two rows one child, is one date wrong, or is one parentage link wrong?
