The mark describes the person, not the link. Of the 10 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.

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.

Notes carried in the tree

Reproduced as written, minus the automated copy-reference boilerplate. These are what the family and other researchers put down, not what this archive has verified.

In die jaar 1773 het al Regina se kinders saam met haar en Thomas Roodewald op “Versailles” gebly en hulle het saam geboer. Hulle het 30 000 wingerdbome gehad en werkers op die plaas het bestaan uit agt manlike en ses vroulike slawe. Daar was ook 30 osse en 300 skape. In haar testament gedateer 7 Mei 1797 vra sy dat haar slawe Diana van Bengalen en Sibella van Madagaskar nie verkoop mag word na haar dood nie maar self kon besluit watter van die kinders hulle wou gaan dien. (Regina stam vermoedelik af van Hertog Godfry van Bouillion (1058-1100). Hy het die eerste kruistog na Jerusalem gelei en sy kasteel van Bouillion (wat hy van sy kinderlose broer geerf het) verpand om die tog te finansier. (Die inligting kan nie bevestig word nie). Die kasteel in Luxemburg staan vandag nog)
