Thank you Esme Van Der Westthuizen, for proposing the merge of my Zeantys Roux (-359) with your Helena Cartharina Roux (-398). My search for Zeantys has been fruitless. The only source I have found is in a family tree created by Frank Dormay Watney in the 1930's. His work was a continuation of a tree prepared for Frank G. Watney in the 1870's. Zeantys' name didn't appear in that earlier tree although John Pigott's did. Frank D. may have had notes on the people in his tree but he didn't include them with the tree. The Quote you provide and the book by Mr. de Bijs seem to correspond so I think the proposed merge should go forward.
