the direct line, argued on the line from a record this archive has read inferred, not stated from the family tree, unverifiedAll 6 relationships shown are written in a record this archive has read. The Olivier line →MARRIED AT GRAAFF-REINET ON 8 DECEMBER 1816 — the same small Karoo town where Petrus Jacobus Booysen was baptised in 1788 and his son born in 1812. Four children documented, all baptised at Cradock between 1820 and 1826. Named together on two of those baptisms, in 1823 and 1824, and again on their daughter's 1891 Sterfkennis where a bad hand turns the surname into something this archive read as Alberts. HIS THREE NAMES are why a Booysen grandson in the Transvaal was called Ockert Johannes Stephanus, and HER daughter Aletta Catharina is why there is an Aletta Catharina Johanna a generation on.

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.
