Biography

Wellington, Western Cape South Africa
Living in the beautiful town of Wellington, Western Cape, South Africa since 1981. [1]
I was born and bred in the Eastern Cape and had the privilege to attend 12 different schools. Getting to know different people and making lots of friends, with whom I still have the privilege to have contact after all these years.
In 1972 life's road brought me to the Western Cape, and I was surrounded with so much beauty that I fell in love and stayed. [1]
In 1987 due to my interest in genealogy, and little knowledge of genetics I became involved in an American based project that opened many doors for me. Leading to research about South African families far beyond my own interest - the Olivier family name. [1]
My involvement with many different research projects took me to new avenues. I met many wonderful people and their friendship and help are a huge benefit, in reaching my goals:
My goals are to help build a global tree with as many South African profiles as possible. Giving each and every profile a place in the sun, to commemorate their joy and sorrows. [1]
Adding as many private sources to WikiTree as possible for future generations[1]
WikiTree opened so many doors leading to so many opportunities that I am confident that this goal will not be as difficult as I anticipated. The collaboration, and help gives me hope that I will see this goal realised sooner than later. [1]

Hi Ronel,

Ek so pas terug van Kaapstad, en omgewing. Wou so graag by jou uitkom, maar vakansie tyd het my ingehaal. Ongelukkig is Lutheran church baptism rekord vir nou glad nie beskikbaar nie. (was by outsiders within). Sodra ek enige nuus kry, oor die kerk bestuur se besluit sal ek jou laat weet. (rekord is by die kerk) Baie Groete, Geoff.

Hello Ronel

It looks to me like you've done some amazing work. Congratulations.

I am trying to trace my tree, but have hit a brick wall early in my journey.

I am hoping that you can assist?

Hello Ronel,

On behalf of the G2G Integrators Project Leaders, we are doing a six-month check-in with members. Please let us know if you are still active. If you are active, please let us know in which ways you most enjoy contributing to the project.

All of us at WikiTree would like to thank you for your contributions and hope that you are enjoying exploring your roots.

Hi Ronel

Thank you for the message - I seldom use wiki as I find it rather tiresome adding sources etc just due to the fact that I don't use it as often as Ancestry or Geni where my main trees are.

I have been working on my direct maternal line for my mtdna & hubby has been in putting data as he has been housebound for 13 days with Covid. Please merge any duplicates for us.

I link via dna to thousands on Ancestry & here due to my links to most of the early settler families in SA. It took ages to find my great grandmothers van Eeden line as she - Dorothea Regina was baptised with a third name 'willemina' that she appears to have dropped.

Thanks for your message, regards Deirdre

Dear Ronel,

The Profile Improvement Project (PIP) is performing its first annual check-in with our project members. We are in the process of transitioning to a team structure. There will be three participant PIP Teams to start -- The Maintenance Category Team, the Unknowns Team, and the Biography Team. There is also the Voyage Team who guide new Voyagers. See the Profile Improvement Project Teams for a brief outline of each team. Please let us know which team(s) you would like to participate in.

For those of you who joined the Project before the Voyage started in late 2018, we would like to invite you to consider a "fast track" Voyage, especially if you plan to join the Biography Team. If you’re interested, choose a profile that you have completed to the best of your ability and compare it to the Voyage Biography Standards. If you’re at Level 2 or better, include a link to the profile in your response to this check-in for a “fast track” review.

We would also like to invite you to join the email GoogleGroup and text chat Discord channel for our project. (When you request to join our GoogleGroup, please be sure to include your Wiki ID). You will find more information on the GoogleGroup.

We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project and WikiTree. The Project’s mission is to:

Make profiles beautiful! We clean up messy biography sections and sources, and try to set standards for attractive, useful, and well-written biographies, starting with those we manage.

We know you’re working on profiles *smile* We would like to hear about successes you’ve had toward the Project’s goals. We would also appreciate any feedback you might have to help us improve the Project. Please share your thoughts in a reply to this comment or privately via private message to either of us.

Sincerely,

Debi Hoag and Robin Shaules Co-Leaders, Profile Improvement Project

I have recently registered as a volunteer on wikitree. But to be honest I have no idea what I should be doing or who to ask. Could you please point me in the direction. What does a volunteer do?

Hello Ronel,

I would like to join the Dutch Cape Colony project. Living in South Africa, I have great links to this topic including my primary focus, Paulus Maree. Paulus Maree is one of many profiles that Philip has worked on and is my 8th great grandfather. I recently connected my family to the main tree by finally working out the connection between him and Isabella Susan Maree. I have not been able to contact Susanna.

Hi Ronel - a question of clarity on the Source-a-Thon --- does the SA springboks get points only for SA project profiles sourced, for South African profiles out of projects or any profile sourced by a springboks team member. Just wondering - I will be joining.
posted by Sharon Caldwell
Hi Sharon

Each participant are allocated a point for every unsource profile sourced Your point will be added to the team you choose when you asked for your race number in G2G

Aah so happy that you will join us. Great news. Thanks Looking forward to this

Thank you so much Ronel for the very warm welcome. I am so looking forward to learning!

Welcome to the annual Help: Connect-a-Thon All the new profiles you make this weekend are being counted. The goal is to use a profile that is not linked to WikiTree's main tree and then add all that family you can find. The competition starts at 14H00 today (Friday) Good Luck and enjoy.
