The biography for Anonymous Pusey is empty. What can you add?
1. Mother said her father's line came from Europe due to a family dispute. She claims the family name was previously Van Der Merwede but two brothers quarreled and one fled from Europe to South Africa changing the spelling on landing. No supporting documentation has yet been found, nor has the family line been traced back beyond the initial arrival. 2. Henry Usher Van Der Merwe had a prior marriage, but the family have decided to honor his desire to have it not included. I have the information but since the marriage was annulled and produced no children, I did not see the fight with the family as worth it to include the info here. 3. A branch of the Pusey line moved to the USA and several cousins have been located. The data has not been uploaded here because I lack source information to back it up.
Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.
Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.
If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.
Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page.
