Navorsingsnotas

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.

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.

Wat die rekord kortkom

• 48 years, and the ground changes hands to nobody we can follow second order · B1 succession

  On Welbedacht (Varsche Fontein Nr. 27 Gdlt 4), C.M. FourieH is the last owner recorded from 1925-03-24, and the next entry is Maria Magritha van RensburgM from 1973, 48 years later, with no person in common. DOC-0053 records the later arrival but not the 48 years before it.

  What would settle it The Deeds Office transfer register for this farm between 1925 and 1973. 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.
