• [1] His baptism record oin 1785 confirms his name, and his parents as Cornelis Janse Uys and Alida Maria Swart. Added by Ewald Schmidt on 2 May 2020 Family Search is once again incorrect. The LNAB is spelled the Dutch way: Uijs and should be transcribed that way after the baptism image has been uploaded. Van der Walt-440 06:46, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
