Willem Petrus Lubbe (b1808 -d.)

Aangesien Willem getroud was met Gerharda Oberholster, is hierdie aangehegte e-pos waarskynlik 'n bewys daarvan dat Willem wel deel van die Oberholster trekgroep uitgemaak het.
Het iemand enige verdere inligting re die groep se bewegings gedurende die Groot trek en daarna?

Dear Carol

Have you tried http://www.national.archives.gov.za for references to
estates etc.

Some of the Lubbe's were most likely part of the group of so-called
Trekboers who have settled in the Southern Orange Free State since the
1820's. When the Voortrekkers moved over the Orange River etc. a few hundred
of them were already staying their.

One of their leaders was Michiel Adriaan Oberholster (for an article of him
see SA Biographical Dictionary Vol. 5). Attached to a letter, dated
3.8.1842, to Sir George Napier is a list of 192 of the followers of
Oberholster. The names of the following Lubbes appeared on that list:

Wellem Petrüs
Lubbe

Andries J
Lubbe

Johannis H
Lubbe

Willem J
Lubbe A zoon

The old National Archives, Cape Town reference for this letter is CO 1361
Despatches Received (See PJ van der Merwe: Die Noordwaartse Beweging van die
Boere voor die Groot Trek (1770-1842), Die Staatsbiblioteek, Pretoria,
1988 - page 346). The reference has subsequently changed. One of my
forefathers, Willem Daniel Jacobs (born ca 1804) was married to the eldest
daughter of MA Oberholster. The town of Fauresmith was founded on the farm
of WD Jacobs.

Best wishes

Daniel Jacobs
