The mark describes the person, not the link. Of the 24 relatives drawn here, 0 have a document of their own in this archive — but that is not the same as a document tying them to this person. This archive holds no separate proof for most parent–child links; where it does, the note above this chart says so in words.

Two children here carry one name — Anna Elizabeth Pretorius, Hilletje Magdalena Pretorius, Gerhardus Petrus Pretorius, Johanna Catharina Pretorius, Anna Dorothea Pretorius. In these parishes that is usually not an error: a child who died was very often replaced by a later child given the same name, and nine such deaths are implied across these four families by a name used twice. It is also exactly how a records-matcher makes one person out of two, which is why they are kept apart here and the reader is told.

Where this sits in the family

Not on the direct line. They are published because they belong to one of the eight surnames this archive follows.

The register spells this surname more than one way, and the search folds the forms together — so Xubrinich and Žubrinić, Joannis and Ivan, find each other.
