Research notes

[5 Aug 2026, DOC-0240] Read off the deduction table on the back of the Minnies Kraal No. 112 diagram - survey record E2090/55 - which lists all eight portions cut from the farm in the single 1955 campaign, each with its own diagram and 1956 deed. Gedeelte 6 ('Ged' is Gedeelte, Portion - : SG diagram 8737/1955, 882.6769 morgen, deed 2301/1956. The diagram itself is not held here; this row rests on the parent's deduction table. TRANSCRIPTION CHECKED AGAINST THE GROUND: the recorded extent and the modern cadastral polygon for this portion agree to within about 1%, which is what gives confidence in a faint table.

[13 Aug 2026] Renamed to the one form this model uses for every portion - the portion's own name, then the parent farm, its number and the portion in brackets - so that a name is legible in a list, a search result and a map popup without the reader having to know which farm number is which. It read "Minnies Kraal Portion 6 (No. 112 Ptn 6)" before. Nothing about the ground changed.

The research behind this page, kept separate from it: dated working notes, open questions, and what is not yet settled.

What the record is missing

Nobody is on record as ever having held this third order · B8 never-held
Minnies Kraal No. 112 Ptn 6 is in the model and drawn on the map, and carries no ownership record of any kind, not a grant, not a transfer, not an occupation.

What would settle it The Surveyor-General's diagram for the farm number names the grantee and the date; the deed reference on it opens the transfer chain.

Found by breaks.py reading the model against itself, not written by hand, each one is a shape of missing record, not a fault in the data. The whole set is on the questions page.
