Martha Angeline Kolbe
HER STONE IS READ, AND IT TAKES BACK WHAT THIS ARCHIVE SAID THIS MORNING. “TER GEDACHTENIS VAN ONS GELIEFDE KLEINE — MARTHA ANGELINE KOLBE — GEBOREN 9 OCT. 1901 — OVERLEDEN 8 DEC. 1901 — HEBR. 6”, and cut across the base, the mason’s town: NEWCASTLE. IT STANDS IN WAKKERSTROOM MAIN CEMETERY, NOT AT VOLKSRUST. The index this archive read gives her burial as “Volksrust, Eastvaal District Council” — which is the DISTRICT, not the town, and Wakkerstroom lies inside it. WITH THE TOWN GOES THE CAMP: a family stone in a town churchyard, in Dutch, cut by a monumental mason twenty-five miles away in Natal, is not a camp burial, and this archive should not have gone near the word. She was sixty days old, she died in the middle of the war, and that is all that can be said. She carries the name of her great-aunt Martha Angelina, baptised at Colesberg in 1868.
Every record naming Martha Angeline Kolbe →
No family is drawn here, because none is recorded. This archive holds Martha Angeline Kolbe 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 →

The documents
…He was born at Burgersdorp — where the 1820 Settler is buried, and where the Settler's twin son George Augustus was born in 1836. That descent is not documented here and is not claimed.

The Kolbes
…Daniel's death registration carries the words G A Kolbe's son , which the index mangled into G A Kolbelsson — and that misprint is the line that ties the graves to the old man. Two women the war took, and one this archive cannot name Angeline Kolbe , aged 28, died at Wakkerstroom on 15 November 1900 . Martha Angeline Kolbe , born 9 October 1901, died 8 December 1901, buried at Volksrust — sixty days old. Volksrust held a concentration camp, and this archive records the burial place without claiming the cause, because it has read no camp register that names the child. Angeline is not the camp grave NAAIRS holds — that is a G.E. Kolbe, aged 35 , a different age in a different year in a different town.…

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.
