*** THE ENTRY THAT MATTERS: 'De wed: Ockert Brits', under SWELLENDAM, at the foot of the leaf. *** A WIDOW OF OCKERT BRITS MEANS OCKERT BRITS WAS DEAD. Read from a screenshot supplied by , described by him as a 1759 death register. | TRANSCRIBED AS READ. Heading '1759'; columns Woonplaats | [name] | maanden | dag: | qualiteyt. | SWARTLAND: Een Jong gebooren kind van Jendrik [?]Witsde - Jann: 19 | Een Soon van Tobias Mastert ge:t Ernst - Maart 10 | Een dogter v: Jaspar Smidt g:t Catharina - April 1 | do Merten Rabbert, Elisabeth - 13 | do Pieter v:d: byl, Aletta - Juny 5 | Jongkind, Willem Meyburg - 6 | Een vrouw wed: v: en d' Oude [?]Guilliame - Sept: 12. | SWELLENDAM: Pieter Paulus Groensberg [?T:Hau:] - Octob: 10 - BURGER. | CABO: Een kindt van Johan Michel [?]Drimlard ge:t Aletta Catharina - Nov: 3 | Een Soon van Barthol: [?]Botz ge:t Jacobus - 1 | Magdalena Louw wed: v: burg: [?]Steve [?]prieret - 8 | Juff: Johanna Magdalena van Bergh wed: def:r Dan: Godf: [?]Carnsbek - 10 | Jan Hendrik van [?]Helslding - 12 - BURGER | Een songgebooren kind v: Mich: Berning - 21 | Johannes Casparus van Graan - 22. | [?]WAVEREN: Een Soon van Den Eerw: G: Remmerius Harders ge:t Pieter Volkardus - [?]Octob: 21 | Cattarina [?]welk huy: W: v: Jan Horn - Nov: 9 | Een kindt van [?]Jesse Ane Brugman ge:t Johannes Hermanus - Decemb: 5. | SWELLENDAM, the last block, IN A LARGER HAND AND WITH NO MONTH, DAY OR QUALITEYT FILLED: Johannes Strydom | Lowies Steyn | DE WED: OCKERT BRITS | De Juff:r van Willem van Zyl. A further 'Cabo' line begins below and is cut off. | *** WHAT THIS DOES TO FIX-0011, WHICH WAS RAISED THE SAME DAY. *** That correction cites three documents putting Ockert Brits alive after his recorded death of 11 Nov 1737: the 1751 Drakenstein roll, an 11 May 1755 baptism, and the 1760 Swellendam roll. THE FIRST TWO STAND. THE THIRD CANNOT, if this leaf is what it appears to be: a widow of his at Swellendam in 1759 or 1760 puts him dead before the 1760 roll was sworn, so the OCKERT BRITS heading a household at Swellendam folio 6 line 12 in 1760 is somebody else - almost certainly a son of the same name, which is one of the two explanations LEAD-0236 had already offered and could not choose between. | THE WIDOW IS VERY LIKELY CATHARINA BASTIJAANS PYL (PER-000768), his wife on the 1751 roll and the mother of Dina Carolina Britz. The leaf does not give her first name. [TO VERIFY] | *** WHAT IS NOT ESTABLISHED, AND 5a-ii IS THE REASON. *** The provenance is Frans's description and has not been checked against a title page, a film or a folio number: no repository, no volume, no image number arrived with the screenshot. AND THE FOUR SWELLENDAM ENTRIES AT THE FOOT CARRY NO DATE, unlike every other line on the leaf, so they may be a block continuing onto the next leaf or the opening of the following year. THE ROBUST READING DOES NOT DEPEND ON WHICH: 'de wed:' describes her either way, and the year on the leaf is 1759. | WHAT WOULD SETTLE IT: the next leaf, and the register's title page.
