Biography

Research Notes

The youngest child of Theodorus Ernst Botha and Gesina Elizabeth van Rooyen, Jacobus Petrus Botha, was baptised in 1845, so Gesina could not have married Theodorus Christoffel Botha in 1841. In any case, she would have been 47 years of age and he only 20. T E Botha and G E van Rooyen had a child named Gesina Elizabeth Botha, b. 18.9.1826.
On 3 Jun 1845 Jacobus Petrus Botha was baptised, with parents Theodorus Christoffel Botha and Gesina Elizabet Botha.

It seems a strange coincidence that Gezina van Rooyen is married to two Ernst Botha's - the one in 1814 the other in 1841. These two spouses have different birthdates and sets of parents. I suspect that there is some conflation going on.
