Kemp-12167 and Kemp-1680 appear to represent the same person because: Obvious duplicate created because I did not have enough information.

Kemp-3557 and Kemp-1680 appear to represent the same person because: Same dates, same wife. Peter's the name he generally used; it's possible that he was christened Johan Peter/John Peter.
