Burial ground CEM-059

Uitnood 147 farm cemetery, Swartberge

2 graves recorded · 2 identified in this project · Uitnood No. 147 (Loan Farm Uit-Nood) · 1955

IN THE WILLOWMORE DISTRICT, NOT PRINCE ALBERT - and 23.0 km from Klaarstroom, which is why it is here. Of the twenty rural albums eGGSA hold for Willowmore, this is the only one inside 30 km of the basin; the next nearest is Vondeling station at 53 km and the rest are Baviaanskloof, 110 to 165 km east. Two stones and both are this project's families: a Hitge by marriage, and an Oosthuizen who died in 1842 - SIXTEEN YEARS BEFORE THE ROOT COUPLE OF THIS WHOLE HISTORY. [12 Aug 2026] Filed against PAR-000100: the recorded coordinate falls inside that polygon, and the album's farm name and number both agree with it. The polygon decides this, not the title - farm numbers repeat across registration divisions.

A name links to its own photograph on the eGGSA site, which holds the picture of the stone. Names and dates in this table are eGGSA transcriptions except where a stone was read here.

Photographed here, not yet read

2 photographs of this ground carry a caption on eGGSA that nothing in this project has yet matched to a person. The words are eGGSA's transcription of the stone, kept exactly as written; nobody here has read the photograph. Each one links to its own page on their site. 2 further photographs of this ground are already in the table above.

The photographs are eGGSA's and stay on their site; this project links to them and does not copy them. Their albums are expressly incomplete, so a name missing here is not evidence that person is not buried here.
