Changing the LNAB to "Van der Westhúijsen" as per the baptism record

Van der Westhuyzen-20 and Van Der Westhuijzen-35 appear to represent the same person because: Same dates, same parents, but which LNAB?

Thank you, Helga. I won't argue (too mutch !) with you about the location but I could not find the farm/area called "Rondedeel" on maps that I have consulted. Rondavel yes, Rondevlei yes. I will let you know if anything in this regard pops up. In the meantime I do not mind, leave it be!

And spelling of Aletta? No doubt with 2 L's, but then I know of related families with ladies of that name who will crucify you if you spell it other than Aletha; just like the Agenbachs in that region and I have many of them in my family where some is Agenbach, others Aggenbach and even Achenbag Regards

On the baptism register Alletta is spelled with 2 "ll" but not on the death notice.  :-)

On her DN the place of death looks like RONDAVEL to me and not Rondedeel

posted on Van der Westhuyzen-20 (merged) by Johan Morgenthal

Johan, Rondavel might be an option, but I'm not totally convinced that that is correct. The upstroke is quite high for the letter "v" and the letter after the "d" could be either an "a" or an "e". It would be interesting to see if one can find a map with farm names of the area for that time.

Regards Helga
