Hermanus Petrus Janse van Vuuren

active 1863 · Janse van Vuuren line

No birth date is recorded for this person. The family puts an outer limit on it: born no later than 1856, because their mother born 1814, at most 42 at the birth. That rests on an assumption about ordinary childbearing ages, not on a document. It is an upper bound and not a birth year, and nothing in the model records it as one.

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

Navorsingsnotas

[SRC-249] Second-named child on his father's 1863 death notice, and a minor at that date. Not otherwise traced; he does not appear in the part of the Beaufort West register transcribed so far.

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.
