QUERIED 20 Aug 2026 with data/csg_index.py. *** THIS IS THE QUERY SRC-461 SAID IT HAD RUN AND COULD NOT REPRODUCE. *** SRC-461 searched the WESTERN CAPE PROVINCIAL warehouse on UPPER(P_FARMNAME) LIKE 'MODDER%FONTEIN'. That field holds an INTEGER id, not a name, so the search it describes cannot return what it reports. This one runs against the Chief Surveyor-General's own national name index, which is a real gazetteer, matches on SUBSTRING, and returns a division code and farm number per row. | *** NO MODDERFONTEIN, UNDER ANY SPELLING, IN UNIONDALE, OUDTSHOORN, CALITZDORP, LADISMITH, KNYSNA OR MOSSEL BAY. *** That is SRC-463's negative, now confirmed from an independent and better-suited source, and it is the check | WHAT THE CAPE DOES HOLD, nearest first: MODDERDRIFT No. 106 Prince Albert (already ours, PAR-000069); MODDERFONTEIN No. 114 Beaufort West (SRC-511 - and see there, because it is a 1954 name); MODDERASFONTEIN No. 66 Swellendam; MODDER RIVIER No. 209 George; MODDER-SPRUIT No. 68 Mossel Bay; six MODDERFONTEINs in RIVERSDALE (417, 569, 570, 573, 579, 685) plus MODDERFONTEINE No. 647, of which 417 is the 1776 Kafferkuils farm of PER-001855 (SRC-466); MODDERFONTEIN No. 7 Laingsburg; and in Clanwilliam Nos. 225 and 459 A, the Citrusdal cluster. | *** SRC-461 SAYS THERE IS NO MODDERFONTEIN IN BEAUFORT WEST. THERE IS. *** One of the six divisions it names as empty is not empty, which is the second reason not to lean on it. See SRC-511 for what that farm turns out to be. | A NAME IN THIS INDEX IS NOT A PARCEL YOU CAN DRAW. The CSG index keeps farms the provincial cadastre has dropped as cancelled or consolidated; Beaufort West 114 is absent from the province and present here. Read the diagram before concluding anything from a hit. | [20 Aug 2026] AND IT SETTLED A TRANSCRIPTION THE SAME DAY IT WAS BUILT. SRC-483 could not decide between 'Oliphants Kraal' and 'Ockerts Kraal' on a Swellendam opgaafrol. This gazetteer holds ONE Ockerts Kraal in the Western Cape - SWELLENDAM 502 - and no Oliphants Kraal outside MALMESBURY (57 and 61). A name index adjudicating between two readings of one word is a use nobody planned for it.
