The list of children of Carel Pieter (1871.02.19;1930.08.11) amd Aletta Johanna Magdalena MEYER (1886.01.12;1969.09.19) is incomplete. The death certificates of both lists the following compatibly:
Johanna Margaretha (Cronje) Dannhauser,
Aletta Johanna (Cronje) Serfontein,
Johannes Izak Cronje
Carolina Petronella (Cronje) Serfontein
Hendrik Petrus CRONJÉ (1921.10.10;2002.06.12)
Anna Helena (CRONJÉ) Bruwer (1927.03.20; 2014.11.13)
The last two have been omitted.
I also notice that the following is listed: Maria Sophia Cronje and Maria Sophya Cronje. This is the same person. She died young. The spelling of the middle name is a problem. The tomb stone says Sophia. I advise Maria Sophia CRONJÉ (1904.08.22;1908.02.13)
In the mean time the data of Hendrik Petrus MEYER (18650127 - ) is to be corrected as follows:
This area Roodewal is not in the Koppies district but in the Kroonstad district on the way to Viljoenskroon. Meyer amongst others, owned farms Wolvenfontein and Twee Dronk, the last was inherted by his daughter, my grandmother, Aletta Johanna Magdalena MEYER (1886.01.12;1969.09.19). The date of death for HP Meyer was 1939.07.14. The Free State archives contain a really full file of his estate documents, also of his second wife Susanna Elizabeth, born Van der Merwe. They both died in 1939.
Meyer, my grandmother is listed as of unknown descent. Her tombstone reveals: Aletta Johanna Magdalena MEYER (18860112-19690919). Our private records of which none is official claims her direct ancestors as
Father: Hendrik Petrus MEYER (18650127 - ) - Rooiwal, Koppies area.
Mother: Maria Sophia VOSLOO (18620414 - )
