Mary Elizabeth Kolbe

MARGARETHA'S SISTER, and the woman who married GEORGE FREDERICK ENSLIN — which is the whole answer to a contradiction this archive carried as Serious, that Margaretha appeared to marry Enslin while married to John Barry.

The documents

…It was resolved from Margaret Downing’s 1867 death notice , which lists among her children “Mary Elizabeth (dead) who was married to George F. Enslin” . The Enslin marriage belongs to Margaretha’s sister . Here are the two sisters, on one page, on one day, baptising a son each. Mary Elizabeth Kolbe with her Enslin, Margareth Kolbe with her Barry, two entries apart in the Burgersdorp register on 23 October 1853. The contradiction → And it puts them at Burgersdorp. The 1915 death notice says the marriage was at “Burghersdorp (probably)” — a son guessing, sixty-five years on, at something nobody had told him.…

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.
