Die plaas se eie geskiedenis — die toekenning, die oorspronklike opmeting — sit op daardie bladsy.

Plaasnommer: Nr. 26
Gedeelte: Remainder
Distrik: Prince Albert
Grootte, soos die kaart dit stel: 4137 morgen 397 sq roods

Hierdie perseel het geen gepaste opmetingspoligoon nie, en kan dus nie op die kaart geteken word nie. Dit is 'n gaping in die kadasterpassing, nie 'n afwesigheid uit die rekord nie.

Waarom hierdie plaas hier is

J.C. Muller het dit gehou, en geen verwantskap met die Oosthuizen, Marincowitz of Van der Merwe-lyne is aangeteken nie — hierdie grond het deur die grond ingekom, nie deur die familie nie. Nog nie op die kaart geplaas nie.

Stories

about this farm Die Prins Albert-goudstormloop
'n Erdvark krap in 1871 'n goudklont op Spreeuwfontein uit; twintig jaar later tel 'n skaapwagter 'n tweede een op en vyfhonderd mense daag op. Uit 1 042 kleims kom 504 ons. Die delwersdorpie het Gatsplaas geheet, na daardie eerste gat.

Navorsingsnotas

The Remainder of "Spreeuw-Fontein & Toornits Kraal". Amended title 19 Jun 1903 to J.C. MullerH, folio 973. Houses and a spring shown on DOC-0016.

[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 "Klein Waterval (Spreeufontein Remainder)" before. Nothing about the ground changed.

Werknotas, hier gewys omdat dit 'n private navorsingsbou is.

Die werksnotas op hierdie werf word in Engels gehou en word nie vertaal nie. Hulle verander met elke navorsingsessie, en 'n vertaling sou uit pas raak met die oorspronklike. Alles anders — die stories, die getranskribeerde dokumente en die koppelvlak — is in Afrikaans.

Oop vrae

Spreeufontein drew mineral interest again in 1910-1912, and this record ends the story in 1891 prioriteit 2 · LEAD-0190
Two NAAIRS index lines put mineral activity on Spreeufontein a generation after the rush: an ALLEGED FIND OF CINNABAR in 1910-1911 (KAB SG 3/2/1/35 sys 01 ref MDC770) and THE SPREEUWFONTEIN (PRINCE ALBERT) GOLD MINING SYNDICATE LIMITED, registered under Act 25 of 1892 in 1912 (KAB LC 295 sys 02 ref 1210). What happened on that ground between about 1908 and the First World War, and who was behind the syndicate?

Wat die rekord kortkom

The record stops in 1903 and never resumes second order · B2 trail-ends
Klein Waterval (Spreeufontein Nr. 26 Restant) was worked as far as 1903-06-19, with J.C. MullerH the last owner on record. 123 years follow with nothing. Who held it after that, and is it still one farm?

What would settle it The current title deed traced backwards, each transfer names the one before it, or the Surveyor-General's subdivision diagrams, which are what usually explain a farm going quiet.
“Riet Fontein” is named as a neighbour 4 times and we hold no parcel for it second order · B3 unheld-farm
4 separate surveys in this model put Riet Fontein on the boundary of ground we do hold (PAR-000005, PAR-000020, PAR-000025). It has no parcel of its own here, so nothing is known about who held it or when, while it borders farms at the centre of the project.

What would settle it The Surveyor-General's farm index for the registration division will give it a farm number and a diagram; the cadastre pull in `data/fetch_cadastre.py` then places it on the map.
“Groot Waterval (Remainder)” is named as a neighbour 2 times and we hold no parcel for it third order · B3 unheld-farm
2 separate surveys in this model put Groot Waterval (Remainder) on the boundary of ground we do hold (PAR-000020, PAR-000025). It has no parcel of its own here, so nothing is known about who held it or when, while it borders farms at the centre of the project.

What would settle it The Surveyor-General's farm index for the registration division will give it a farm number and a diagram; the cadastre pull in `data/fetch_cadastre.py` then places it on the map.

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.
