My gran was married to a Jacobus albertus Johannes Swanepoel.. She was born in 1905.. They got divorced in 1930.. they lived near Koffiefontein for a while and tweefontein.. He might have been from philipous.. filipous.. Not sure how to spell it.. maybe northern cape or Orange free state.. Its the only branch I have not started so have no idea where to start.. he was estranged so I know nothing more!!!
Any pointers

He had no children with Magdalena but married when he was 50. I am absolutely positive that this is my grandfather who married in late 1920's. I said born in 1905 only because that was the birth date of my gran so had to be about that time.. He had 3 children with my gran Glori Gertrude Sassin and they had a terrible divorce and I don't think he had much to do with his children after 1935... my gran would have made it difficult but he had 3 daughters Laura, Gloria and Vivienne Sadie my mother!!! The 10 children are you saying were his brothers and sisters!!!
The father was B3c1d4e6f1g1 Willem Johannes

This is the farm Oranjevlei where he lived with his mother early 1930,s mentioned in the divorce papers.. If he has 10 uncles and aunts.. would love these connections... My Aunt Laura is over 80 today and would love to know she has maybe some cousins alive older than 70
