Johanna Booyzen

NOT THIS FAMILY, and recorded here on purpose. Death notice 6167 — the oldest Booyzen estate paper in the Cape Master's series, and a generation older in form than anything else this archive has read. Widow of Charles du Plessis; one daughter, married to Benjamin Solomon; “no property whatever except a Bond amounting per balance to £15”. Line 3 answers “both dead”. She is here because she was born in 1754 and died in 1843 — the only two dates this archive has for Magdelena Elisabeth de Beer, both off the family tree with no source stated — and because somebody will one day find her and decide she is the same woman. She is not. Her name is not Magdelena, not Elisabeth, and not de Beer.

Every record naming Johanna Booyzen →

No family is drawn here, because none is recorded. This archive holds Johanna Booyzen as a name on a document — a witness at a font, a signature on a form, a person named in someone else's list — and has no record of who their parents, spouse or children were. That is a statement about the sources, not about the person. Every record naming them →

NOT THIS FAMILY, and recorded here on purpose. Death notice 6167 — the oldest Booyzen estate paper in the Cape Master's series, and a generation older in form than anything else this archive has read. Widow of Charles du Plessis; one daughter, married to Benjamin Solomon; “no property whatever except a Bond amounting per balance to £15”. Line 3 answers “both dead”. She is here because she was born in 1754 and died in 1843 — the only two dates this archive has for Magdelena Elisabeth de Beer, both off the family tree with no source stated — and because somebody will one day find her and decide she is the same woman. She is not. Her name is not Magdelena, not Elisabeth, and not de Beer.

What changed

…The same was done this morning for Charlotta Dormehl's six Roos and van Staden step-children. AND THE LAST UNPLACED IMAGE IS PLACED: detail-1843-age-89.jpg has been sitting in the gallery without a caption or a page since it was cut. It belongs on the 1843 Johanna Booyzen notice, against the age given to the day — 89 years, 2 months and 26 days — which is the reading that puts her birth at about 20 March 1754 and is exactly why that notice is dangerous: 1754 and 1843 are the only two dates this archive has for Magdelena Elisabeth de Beer, and they came off a tree with no source. EVERY IMAGE ON THE SITE NOW HAS A CAPTION AND A PAGE.…

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.
