Third witness at the 1870 font, and presumably the bride's people — the only trace the archive has of Johanna Margaritha Pretorius's own family.

Every record naming Andries Gottlieb Pretorius →

No family is drawn here, because none is recorded. This archive holds Andries Gottlieb Pretorius 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 →

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.
