Please add Frans Jacobus van der Merwe Van_der_Merwe-7768 as son, as confirmed by his baptism record [[1]] on 18 April 1808 in Graaff Reinet

You will also see his name on the death notice here above as second child.

Van der Merwe-4795 and Van der Merwe-4569 appear to represent the same person because: Death date the same. Note that it seems that he was married twice.

The death notice states that his mother was Adriana A.[ettha] Snyman; Age at time of death was 88 years and 4 months - I'm not sure if this death notice (and the children associated with it) belongs to this profile with this baptism ....

LNAB (LastNameAtBaptism/Birth) should be spelled as is the custom van der Merwe unless otherwise stated on the baptism.

Van Der Merwe-4772 and Van der Merwe-421 appear to represent the same person because: Duplicates. Van_der_Merwe-421 already existed. I'll do the final integration of the bio after the merge, thanks!
