• Notes

  Witnesses at his baptism were Charl Jacob du Plessis and Geertruida Catharina Vorster. Geertruida Catharina Vorster born 20 Oct 1869 looks like if it is the daughter of Hendrik Rudolph Vorster married to Anna Margaretha van der Walt. Anna Sophia stayed with him in Grahams town where she died in a mental unit. (recorded from letter of Joye Aucamp nee Vorster).
