David Schalk Booijsen
First on his father's 1876 death notice, and a major — and now with a date. His baptism of 4 JANUARY 1807 names his parents as PIETER JACOBUS BOOIJZEN and ANNA MARIA VAN DER MERWE, which is the only document in this archive that puts Anna Maria in the family at all. His father was eighteen when he was born. He married ADRIANA CHRISTINA VILJOEN — on 3 NOVEMBER 1828 AT CRADOCK, a date and a place this archive did not have until WikiTree was read on 13 September 2026, and FROM WIKITREE, NOT FROM A DOCUMENT THIS ARCHIVE HAS READ — and named a daughter ANNA MARIA in 1835, after his own mother. His nephew, born 1848, carries the same name — the two are told apart only by a generation.
The 1876 notice lists eight children and names no mother for any of them. They are drawn under this marriage because it is the only one recorded — not because the document says so.

First on his father's 1876 death notice, and a major — and now with a date. His baptism of 4 JANUARY 1807 names his parents as PIETER JACOBUS BOOIJZEN and ANNA MARIA VAN DER MERWE, which is the only document in this archive that puts Anna Maria in the family at all. His father was eighteen when he was born.

What changed
…A child born in 1806 settles it — they were married by then, so the 1825 record is a different couple. WHAT IS STILL NOT PROVED is that she is the mother of the 1812 man in the direct line, so the wall stays; only its reason has changed. Also found: PETRUS JACOBUS BOOIJSEN, born 29 May 1873 and baptised at LADY GREY, son of David Schalk Booijsen and Elizabeth Margaritha Marais — the eldest of the eight on the 1900 Pretoria notice, now with a date, in the same church where his uncle married six years later. The last six graves, and three things this archive had wrong · Found FamilySearch answered again, so the six register images left unread were read.…
The documents
…It still is not. But the pairing in this line is no longer an assertion, and the 1793 will can now be set aside for good rather than merely resisted.

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.
