…Hendrina Petronella Jacomina Dry, 1886; died at 29 Frederick Fortunatus 1863–1952 Burgersdorp the forename reappears as Frederik Fortsenatus Booÿsen, 1899 Richard Peter 1866–1946 Lady Grey — — (a duplicate) — — the tree also lists a “Kathleen Mary Barry (Booysen)”. The 1915 death notice shows she is the same woman as Kathleen above. Withdrawn. Read rows five and seven together. Catherina Maria Sophia Barry died on 30 July 1859. Catherine Maria Sophia Barry was born on 4 August 1859 — five days later , and was given the dead child's name.…

The cousin marriage

…y–Booyzen unions across three generations — a fourth, which this archive previously counted, turned out to be the same marriage entered twice. How that was settled → Barry married When Catherine Maria Sophia “Kathleen” Barry (1859–1940) Willem Hermanus Booyzen (1851–1905) 22 Dec 1879 the direct line — withdrawn — — — the tree’s separate “Kathleen Mary Barry (Booysen)” is the same woman as row one; John Barry’s 1915 death notice lists only one Barry daughter married to a Boyson Dorothea Regina Barry (1892–1956) Henry James Booyzen (1887–1956) 17 Jul 1912, Elliot her father is Hendrik Nicholaas Barry; his mother is Kathleen Barry Anna Johanna Maria Pretorius (1906–1944), via her Barry mother George Downing Mountjoy Booyzen (1901–1947) 30 Dec 1924, Ver…

…Fatal George Kolbe died in 1844 and Margaret Downing in 1867. Neither can be in a photograph taken in the late 1870s. Probably their son George Augustus Kolbe (b. 1836) and his wife — the repeated forename is the obvious route by which the caption went astray. → Kathleen Mary Barry (Booysen) Listed in the tree as a sister of Catherine Maria Sophia “Kathleen” Barry, also married to a Booysen, with no dates. Resolved RESOLVED by John Barry's 1915 death notice, which lists only ONE Barry daughter married to a Boyson. The arithmetic closes: 8 surviving + 2 predeceased + 1 duplicate = the tree's 11. They are the same woman. → John Augustus Barry I — date of death THREE dates.…

The documents

…Both are new and entirely unexplored. Two corrections fall out of this page. 1. The death date is 3 August 1903 , not the 25 August the tree carries — a 22-day discrepancy. 2. A duplicate person is resolved. The tree lists both Catherine Maria Sophia "Kathleen" Barry (1859–1940), married Booyzen and a separate sister Kathleen Mary Barry (Booysen) with no dates. This notice lists only one Barry daughter married to a Boyson. The arithmetic closes exactly: the tree's 11 children = the notice's 8 surviving + 2 who predeceased him + 1 duplicate . They are the same woman, and the archive's earlier claim of "two Barry sisters marrying Booysens" is withdrawn . 1947 · George's death notice corrects his own death date Signed by G.…

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.
