Research notes
[TREE] Added 2026-07-31 by kin_sweep.py under the one-degree rule: child of Jacobus Abraham WaltersM. Thin record, name, dates and the family link only. NO PLACE IMPORTED: the tree's place strings are systematically wrong and are not evidence.
[11 Aug 2026, SRC-395] ONE OF THESE TWO IS "LENIE (OF WALLY)" AND THE OTHER IS "MIETA", and this record does not say which. The 1987 list names seven surviving children in an order that is not clearly birth order, and both of these are a Maria and a Magdalena: PER-000719 is Maria Jacoba Magdalena, born 1902, and PER-000721 is Magdalena Maria, born 1906. LENIE is the natural short form of Magdalena and is what the same page calls their MOTHER, Magdalena Maria KrugerM, which argues for PER-000721; MIETA is a short form of Maria. Against that, taking the list as birth order gives the opposite answer. No noemnaam is written on either row until it is settled. LEAD-0165.
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.
