Magdalena Elizabeth Basson
active die 1860s
No birth date is recorded for this person. The family puts an outer limit on it: born no later than 1847, because their child born 1863, so at least 16 years earlier. That is a hard limit, it cannot be otherwise. It is an upper bound and not a birth year, and nothing in the model records it as one.

Wat ons nie weet nie
- Geen geboortedatum is aangeteken nie.
- Geen sterfdatum is aangeteken nie.
- Nie een ouer is aangeteken nie, dus hang hierdie mens nie aan die boom bo hom of haar nie.
- Geen gedateerde rekord bind hierdie mens aan 'n bepaalde stuk grond nie.
- Niks gedateerds is hoegenaamd oor hulle aangeteken nie; hulle is hier omdat 'n ander rekord hulle noem.
A sourced gap beats an unsourced fill. These are the open questions on this person, stated rather than papered over.
Navorsingsnotas
[11 Aug 2026] A DIRECT ANCESTOR, named on ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS rather than taken from a tree: she is named as the mother of Sibella Aletta Sophia MostertH on the 1863 baptism entry (SRC-402) and on the 1942 sterfkennis (SRC-403), the latter as "Magdalena Elizabeth Mostert gebore Basson". NO FAMILYSEARCH ID YET, which is a gap worth closing - the standing rule for imports on this project is that a row should carry one so it can be re-checked against the live tree. Name and the family link only; no dates and no place beyond what the documents give.
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.
