Keulder-147 and Keulder-4 appear to represent the same person because: duplicate profiles; the correct first name as per the death notice attached to Keulder-147 is Maria Geertruida
posted by Anton Eugene Bergh
Bergh-3 Anton Eugene Bergh
The Death Notice appears to exclude a marriage to Jeremias Johannes Bower, as it states she is the widow of a Piet van Rooyen and of Mr Nel (probably Jeremias Daniel Nel).

Could someone please help and take a look at the death notice I have attached and see if they can read it more clearly and make more accurate deductions ....

I've had a look at it and have come to the same conclusions as you.

Bergh-3 Anton Eugene Bergh
Looking at it a bit further, it appears that Maria Geertruida's death notice mentions her daughter as Mrs PL Vogel and Mrs PL Vogel's death notice refers to her mother as Geertruida Frederika and her father as Jeremia Josias Bouwer. So it may be that Maria Geertruida Frederika had 3 husbands with Piet van Rooyen being the middle one.
