- Vernacular Architecture Society of South Africa, VASSA Journal number 16, December 2006. Published posthumously: the draft and illustrations reached the editor days before Pretorius's death, and Antonia Malan saw it through the press, with Francois van der Merwe checking the text and Malan taking responsibility for any remaining error - which the article says in its own footnote.

Die sitasie soos dit gegee is
SECONDARY, and it cites its own primaries - RLR volumes for the loan place and the Deeds Office for title - so a claim taken from here should be attributed to the article until the RLR or deed has itself been seen. THE FARM IS OURS: 'De Tijgerhoek / Tygerhoek / Tierhoek ... (Clw. Q1.41, later no. 689 Cal.)' is PAR-000186, and the article's 1837 grant of 4446 morgen matches the 1823 survey extent this project already holds. It is named for the leopards that still take sheep there. [TO VERIFY] the marriage date: the article gives Carel Aaron van der Merwe x Elsie Johanna van Heerden as 21 January 1792; UNI-000310 in this model says 1793-01-20.
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.
