Who stood with them

Who signed at a baptism, a will or a survey is not incidental. It is the clearest surviving record of which families stood close to which.

What we don't know

A sourced gap beats an unsourced fill. These are the open questions on this person, stated rather than papered over.

Research notes

[SRC-074] First wife of PER-000208, married Uitenhage 6 Mar 1808. A STRYDOM MARRYING AN OOSTHUIZEN in the generation before Rondabel was surveyed for a Strydom (1833) and granted to David Jan StrydomM (1841). Another thread to pull on the Oosthuizen-Strydom question, alongside Johanna Machteld Petronella StrydomM (PER-000138).

[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000540 into this row. PROVEN DUPLICATE, resolved on the FamilySearch id. Both rows carry K69K-QNS; an FS id names one person, so these are one person recorded twice. Created by the 31 Jul 2026 one-degree tree pull, which matched on tree id alone - and 255 model people carry no tree id, so any of them one hop from a tree-linked person was added again. Survivor is the pre-existing row; it carries the prose, sources and land links. Moved across: tree id=. Dates sharpened from the merged row: death_edtf 1846 -> 1846-07-30.

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.
