Navorsingsnotas

[SRC-010, SRC-625] Trooper, 2ND BRABANT'S REGIMENT, killed in the skirmish in DIE GANG on 2 February 1901, the same action in which Lance Corporal Boyd and Johannes KleuM (PER-000518) died. Buried beside Boyd and reinterred with him in the churchyard of the CHURCH OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD at Klaarstroom (CEM-477). *** HIS GUILD CROSS IS WRONG TWICE OVER, AND eGGSA SAYS SO: the name is engraved HIRSCHFORD and the date is given as 4 FEBRUARY 1901. *** The eGGSA caption follows the stone, which is why this project's harvest carries him as 'HIRSCHFORDS -1901' and why no search on Gishford would have found him. A worked example of 5a: a transcription is a promise about what is on the paper, and what is on the paper can itself be wrong. The house spelling here is GISHFORD, from the cameo; the stone's HIRSCHFORD is kept as the variant.

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.
