Beatrix Magdalena Catharina Boshoff
BURIED AT SILVERTON, PRETORIA, on a joint stone with her husband: “nee BOSHOFF 1889-1977”. The birth year matches her 1890 Mossel Bay baptism and 1977 is a death year this archive did not have. IMAGE LOCATED, NOT YET READ. His widow, who signed the 1940 death notice at Pretoria on 26 July 1940 — and who could not name her husband's parents. SHE WAS SIXTEEN when she married him at Mosselbaai on 5 September 1905, with her parents consenting; he was thirty. Her own parents were EVERT PHILIP BOSHOFF and SUSANNA FREDERIKA ALETTA MEYER, named on her 1890 baptism — and two of her eleven children are called straight after them.

What changed
…If Stephanus Francois is David Schalk Booijzen's son, as the 1900 Pretoria death notice says, that boy carries his grandfather's name outright; under the parentage this archive published instead, he carries a great-uncle's. A third point for the new reading, and still not proof. Added to the disputed row, which stays Serious. Also: Beatrix Magdalena Catharina Boshoff was born 16 June 1889 and baptised at Mossel Bay on 16 February 1890 — she was SIXTEEN when she married. Anna Maria van der Merwe stops being a rumour · Found The ancestor chart was rebuilt this morning with a fifth wall against her, marked Disputed, and the reason printed beside it was “only a family tree puts her here”. THAT IS NO LONGER TRUE.…
The documents
…Eight columns — and none of them asks where anybody was born, which is the whole difficulty. Entry 1318 , Duplicaat Origineel Register , Mosselbaai, 5 September 1905 . What the register gives Stefanus Francois Booyzen , 30 , JONKMAN — a bachelor — METSELAAR , a mason, woonplaats tijdens het huwelijk: PRETORIA . He married Beatrix Magdalena Catharina Boshoff , 16 , jongdochter of Mosselbaai, with her ouders consenting, in the N.G. Kerk by John Murray . What it does not give No parents. No birthplace. This register has a column for woonplaats tijdens het huwelijk and none for waar geboren — unlike the Zeerust register of 1892, which gave this archive Hendrik Stefanus’s Graaff-Reinet. The question is not settled and this document cannot settle it.…

A dossier is every mention of a person anywhere in this archive, gathered automatically after the site is built and linked back to the page it appears on. Identity here is by NAME, not by resolved individual — where two people share a name they share this page, and the archive says so rather than guessing. Nothing on a dossier page is new evidence; it is the same evidence, brought together.
