Navorsingsnotas

[DIAGRAM] Named on SG Dgm B 358/1833 (DOC-0155) as the man the loan farm Uit-Nood No. 147 was surveyed for, in the Traka field cornetcy, District of Beaufort. Titled to Bf.W.Q.5-32 on 15 April 1841. "Senior" on the face of the diagram implies a son of the same name, and Oorlogs Kloof No. 172 next door (DOC-0073) was surveyed the same month by the same surveyor for LUCAS VAN VEUREN, entered on that form as "P. Zoon". Petrus is the obvious P., so this reads as father and son on adjoining ground. NOT PROVEN: it rests on an initial and a neighbourhood, which 9 says is not enough on its own. See LEAD-0054. Compare PER-000492, Martinus van VeurenM, already in the model. [1 Aug 2026]

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

Petrus van Veuren Senior and Lucas van Veuren "P. Zoon": father and son on adjoining ground? prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0054
Was Lucas van VeurenM of Oorlogs Kloof No. 172 the son of Petrus van Veuren SeniorH of Uitnood No. 147?

Wat dit sou uitmaak A death notice or estate account naming Lucas as a son of Petrus, or a baptism entry giving Lucas a father Petrus. Either would turn an initial into a relationship.

Wat die rekord kortkom

The record stops in 1833 and never resumes second order · B2 trail-ends
Uitnood Nr. 147 (Loan Farm Uit-Nood) was worked as far as 1833~, with Petrus van Veuren SeniorH the last owner on record. 193 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.

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.
