It might be that C.J. van der Walt is wrong in his research on this. It might be that Frederik Botha only married one Hester Venter (that there were two of them I do not doubt, although there have surely been some conflation along the line somewhere - Ian McArthur claims that Hendrik Van_der_Walt-102 (born 14 Jan 1745) never had children (according to the Venter-website) though there are baptism images that prove otherwise. Perhaps his de- and re-connection of parent profiles using that website as "source" has somewhere conflated this whole marriage.
I understand your message Philip/ but Hester Venter (Venter-56) must be removed because Frederik Botha was only married to one Hester Venter If you look at the dates It will become clear that Hester Venter x van der Walt still had van der Walt children in 1792 and the marriage date for Venter and Botha is 1773
