Navorsingsnotas

[11 Aug 2026, SRC-400, SRC-412] ONE OF THE FIVE CHILDREN named on their mother's 1895 death notice, all of them minors when she died at 27. This model held two of the five until now. Named there as "Elizabeth Christina v.d. Merwe"; the FamilySearch id and the birth year come from the son's family-tree, which is a reference for this project and not evidence (SRC-411), but the CHILD is on an original document and only the dates are the tree's. No place imported.

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.
