Stories

about this farm Middelwater Nr. 169: 'n plaasgeskiedenis
Van 'n leningsplaas in die Swartberg tot agt kadastrale persele: die gedokumenteerde geskiedenis van Middelwater Nr. 169 - Stretch se opmeting van 1833 vir Okert Oosthuizen, die toekenningsdag van 1841, die heropmeting van 1883 en die kwitrent van 1884 aan J.D.J. Oosthuysen 'and another', die gedeeltes wat afgesny is vir 'n fontein genaamd Vaste Water en 'n plek genaamd Avondrust, en die kraglynopmeting van 1990 waarvan die koördinate die plaas uiteindelik op 'n kaart gesit het.
mentions this farm Die portrette wat op Middelwater gekry is
Twee geraamde portretsketse uit 'n solder op Klueplaas, wat ou Middelwater-grond is. Geen naam op die rugpapier nie. 'n Sterk omstandigheidsaak dat dit Ockert Almero Oosthuizen en Aletta Hitge is, en geen bewys nie. Die beelde word NIE gepubliseer nie: toestemming is nie gevra nie.

Navorsingsnotas

Cut from Middelwater; SG A.332/1923, deed 3007. Portion 5 of farm 169 - three documents agree (DOC-0076 face "Portion 5", DOC-0039 verso "169/5", DOC-0040 "Gedeelte 5"). "Vaste Water" is the spring marked on the 1883 diagram. Extent 9 morgen 520 sq roods (DOC-0076 face and DOC-0039 verso agree). [29 Jul 2026] Own diagram and beacon report: DOC-0076/DOC-0077. [TO VERIFY] Transfer date conflict is real and unresolved: 26.4.1923 (DOC-0076's own handwritten transfer line) vs 26/5/1923 (DOC-0039's typed verso), same deed 3007 - deed 3007/1923 itself would settle it. Grantee name also differs across DOC-0076/DOC-0077 - see OWN-000057/OWN-000058. [30 Jul 2026] Matched to cadastre 5/169 on the portion number, which three documents give (DOC-0076 face, DOC-0039 verso, DOC-0040). [5 Aug 2026] THE AREA DISAGREEMENT IS RESOLVED. This note read: the diagram's 9 morgen 520 sq roods is 8.45 ha against a cadastre parcel of 10.9 ha, 29% larger. 10.9 ha is GEOM_AREA/10 000, the field found on 5 Aug 2026 to be inflated by 1/cos(lat) on 429 records; the true polygon is 9.1 ha (Shape_Area), which sg_area_ha now carries. The diagram's figure runs 7.7% low against that - a large percentage on a nine-hectare parcel, where a single misread square-rood digit moves it further than any survey error would. Identity was never in doubt and still is not. [30 Jul 2026] INDEPENDENTLY CONFIRMED, not on the portion number alone: the Lo23 survey coordinates on DOC-0040, converted from Cape Datum, place servitude beacons A and C, which sit 0.73 km NE of it in portion 4 exactly as the diagram draws them against this polygon - and that diagram letters this same ground "Gedeelte 5 (Vaste Water)". Method and the full beacon test in SRC-053.

[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 "Vaste Water (Middelwater portion)" before. Nothing about the ground changed.

Oop vrae

Is Arthur Kleu the painter one of the Kleus of Klueplaas? And is Kleu the same surname as Klue? prioriteit 3 · LEAD-0125
Frans holds a painting of MEIRINGSPOORT by ARTHUR LIONEL KLEU (1915-2008), a shopkeeper, inherited from his grandfather. Middelwater carries the werf name KLUEPLAAS. Are they one family, and are Kleu and Klue one surname?

Wat dit sou uitmaak A common ancestor, or a Kleu/Klue baptism at Prince Albert or Klaarstroom in the nineteenth century that ties either line to the district.

Wat die rekord kortkom

The record stops in 1923 and never resumes second order · B2 trail-ends
Vaste Water (Middelwater Nr. 169 Gdlt 5) was worked as far as 1923-04-26, with Susanna Maria KlueH the last owner on record. 103 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.
39 years, and the ground changes hands to nobody we can follow second order · B1 succession
On Vaste Water (Middelwater Nr. 169 Gdlt 5), J.D.J. Oosthuyson / O.A. OosthuysenH (reading uncertain) and J.N. BothaH is the last owner recorded from 1884-03-24, and the next entry is Susanna Maria KlueH from 1923-04-26, 39 years later, with no person in common. DOC-0076 records the later arrival but not the 39 years before it.

What would settle it The Deeds Office transfer register for this farm between 1884 and 1923. A transfer names its predecessor in title, so one deed closes the whole gap.

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.
