ENTRY 19, marked by Frans, transcribed as read: '18 Augustus 1839 / Jan Adrian Venter, jongman / Cornelia Petronella Magdalena Venter, jongedochter / Boer / woonplaats MIDDELVELD, Ditto [district Colesberg] / toestemming: Jan [?J.] M. Venter, Fader; PETRUS JACOBUS VENTER'. Married in the Kerk van Colesberg by Thomas Reid V.D.M. The bride signs 'haar + merk'; witnesses [?P. McKeever], [?G.E. Ipol]. THE BRIDE IS PER-000875 (972R-847), b 9 July 1822, seventeen - which is why both fathers stand in the consent column, and PETRUS JACOBUS VENTER (PER-000589, L4Q7-841) is her father consenting: ALIVE 18 AUGUST 1839. The groom's father '[?J.] M. Venter' is not identified against the model's three Jan Adriaan Venter namesakes - 9, never on a name alone. WOONPLAATS MIDDELVELD is the family's stated ground in the Colesberg district, repeated as 'Middenveld' by entry 958 of 1848 (SRC-578). Entry 20 same day: Petrus Albertus Venter x Cath.a Cornelia Coetsee, achter Zuur Berg, consent Johannes Jacobus Coetzee - recorded, not identified.
Woordeliks gehou. Hierdie projek weerspreek gepubliseerde genealogieë en stel 'n familie se eie mondelinge oorlewering reg, so elke bewering moet nagegaan kan word deur iemand wat nie in die vertrek was nie.
