I am working on a theory that he was married three times. Can the following be.

His second wife died Hester Prinsloo died 24 Dec 1843 - there is a marriage record for a Lukas Johannes Potgieter (listed as widower) dated 8 September 1845 - Gamtoos River, Uitenhage. His residence listed as the Bushmans river ( https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSJG-L7XM?i=580&cc=2821281) marriage to Regina Catharina Rademeyer.

She remarried in 2 Oct 1873 - listed as widow of Lucas Johannes Potgieter. Her death notice I am thinking there is an error on the dates due to marriage record giving a different date of her first husband death as 1876. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSK8-G8FZ?cc=2821281

Would appreciate anyones thoughts on this.

Potgieter-1476 and Potgieter-1475 do not represent the same person because: not the same person
Potgieter-1476 and Potgieter-1475 appear to represent the same person because: clear duplicate
Potgieter-1476 and Potgieter-1475 do not represent the same person because: See comment of Ronel. I'll do the final integration of the both bio's soon, but they are different people.

Both Sara Maritz-4 and Sara Jansen_van_Vuuren-177 had a child called Lucas Johannes Both born circa 1792 Merge set as rejected
Both Sara Maritz-4 and Sara Jansen_van_Vuuren-177 had a child called Lucas Johannes Both born circa 1792 Merge set as rejected

Please note that the baptismal record added here ( Potgieter-1475) should be moved to [1]

Set as unmerged match to do more research.
