Hi dear all

Johannes Bezuidenhout

Your opinion on these 2 profiles would be very much appreciated. What do you think? Thanks Wilma B.

In his about section:

PLEASE DO NOT MERGE / CONFUSE WITH Johannes Bezuidenhout (b4c1d5e3) * 1775

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Death Notice: KAB MOOC 6/9/49 500 (1949), which is signed by Magdalena Geertruida Booyens and confirms exactly with the SAF Vol 3 Date of Birth (see below), namely 11 June 1777.

His Death Notice states that his parents were Cornelis Bezuidenhout and Catharina Oosthuyzen, which makes the merge with the above-mentioned Johannes Bezuidenhout (b4c1d5e3) highly tempting.

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:718Z-2J2M
However, such a merge would create a series of "overlapping" children born from two different mothers at impossibly close intervals.

For example,

Johannes Bezuidenhout and Magdalena Geertruida Booyens baptised Pieter Christiaan Bezuidenhout (born 2 May 1817) in Beaufort-West on 11 Apr 1819 (see his profile for a link to his baptism record);

and

Johannes Bezuidenhout (b4c1d5e3) and Martha Catharina Coertze baptised Martha Maria Bezuidenhout (born 14 Oct 1817) in Graaff-Reinet on 8 March 1818 (see her profile for a link to her baptism record).

Dear all - Kindly have a look at this profile. Who can help us to solve this? I am stuck. Much appreciated! Thanks!

It is just too involved for me to catch up with at this stage - sorry! Things are pretty awful here at the moment and I am very busy - the demand for scrubs is as high as ever - I manage two sets a day so time for Geni is i limited to quick help messages.

Okay - I'll take over. Good luck with the sewing. It's bad in SA too right now. Sterkte.

Of the two Sources on Johannes Bezuidenhout

The children on the 22 July 1833 MOOC of Johannes Bezuidenhout / Maria Catherina Coertze

Heirs of the estate
1) Maria Catherina Coertze
2) Francina Christina Bezuidenhout 39 years of age
3) Marguerietha Bezuidenhout 37 years of age
4) Coenraad Johannes Bezuidenhout 35 years of age
5) Maria Catherina Bezuidenhout 33 years of age
6) Johannes Cornelis Bezuidenhout 31 years of age
7) Aletta Elizabeth Bezuidenhout 29 years of age
8) Joseph Willem Jacobus Bezuidenhout 26 years of age
9) Petrus Gerhardus Bezuidenhout 23 years of age
10) Gideon Albertus Bezuidenhout born 21:st July 1813
11) Martha Maria Bezuidenhout born 13 October 1818
12) Anna Johanna Bezuidenhout born 16 February 1820

https://media.geni.com/p13/d4/56/cc/db/5344484680ed5add/mooc_8_48_2...

Are different to the major children on the 4 Oct 1848 DN of Johannes Bezuidenhout

Parents: Cornelius and Cather.. Oosthuysen?

Cornelius Johannes Stephanus B
Anna Catherina B
Matthys? ?
Wynand Cecil
Catharina Magdalena
Pieter? Christiaan?

https://media.geni.com/p13/d4/56/cc/db/5344484680ed5add/mooc_8_48_2...

This suggests that the Sources are for two different Johannes Bezuidenhouts

And Magdalena Geertruijda Boijens - who signed on the DN - the wife of Johannes Bezuidenhout not of Johannes Bezuidenhout

1/11/2021 at 1:37 AM

Yes - confirmed by the mother on their baptism docs, most of the Bezuidenhout Unlinked/Coertze children had been given to Bezuidenhout/Boijens

I've moved them back.

Removing the erroneous DVNs

1/11/2021 at 3:35 AM

Now we're faced with the problem that none of the children attributed to Johannes Bezuidenhout and Magdalena Geertruijda Boijens oh his DN

*Cornelis Johannes Stephanus *Anna Catharina *Matthys Marthinus *Wynand Carel *Catharina Magdalena *Pieter Christiaan

are attached to them on Geni. Instead:


Son of Cornelis Bezuidenhout, and Catharina Oosthuizen
Husband of Magdalena Geertruijda Boijens
Father of Wynand Willemse Bezuidenhout, b4c1d5e3f1; Margaretha Elizabeth Bezuidenhout Strydom, b4c1d5e3f3; Roelof Wynand Johannes Bezuidenhout, b4c1d5e3f4; Maria Catharina Bezuidenhout Erasmus, b4c1d5e3f5; Elizabeth Bezuidenhout Steyn, b4c1d5e3f7; Roelof Jacobus Bezuidenhout, b4c1d5e3f8; Gideon Albertus Bezuidenhout, b4c1d5e3f11; Martha Maria Bezuidenhout Janse van Vuuren, b4c1d5e3f12 and Aletta Elizabeth Bezuidenhout Greber, b4c1d5e3f6E

1/11/2021 at 3:41 AM

cf Wynand Willemse Bezuidenhout seems to be a child of Joahhenes and Maria Christina Coetzer, acc to this https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSV8-D9KK-5?cat=99...

1/11/2021 at 3:46 AM

moved. removed erroneous DVN

1/11/2021 at 3:57 AM
1/11/2021 at 4:11 AM

Roelof Wynand Johannes Bezuidenhout is the son of Maria Catharina Coertse / Coertsen? on his baptism https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DYVJ-QL?i=318&...

baptised on same day as his sister Maria Catherina Erasmus

1/11/2021 at 4:19 AM

who is obviously also the child of Maria and not Magdalena

1/11/2021 at 4:30 AM

I'm going to presume that Aletta Elizabeth Greber born 1804 to Johannes and Maria Catherina is the Aletta Elizabeth b 1804 on Johannes' MOOC.

1/11/2021 at 4:37 AM

Roelof Jacobus Bezuidenhout b 1806 bap same date as Elizabeth to same parents

1/11/2021 at 4:44 AM

Gideon Albertus Bezuidenhout is obviously Gideon Albertus Bezuidenhout b 21 July 1813
Son of Johannes Bezuidenhout & Maria Catharina Coertze

1/11/2021 at 4:48 AM

Woops - No!
Baptism gives birth as 24 sep 1814 and mother as Maria Catherina Nortje
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSKD-Y33J-P?cat=95...

I'm unlinking him from Magdelena and Johannes and creating new parents for him.

1/11/2021 at 5:12 AM

And then we have Martha Maria Bezuidenhout Janse van Vuuren, b4c1d5e3f12 Martha Maria Janse van Vuuren bap 8 Mar 1818 where she is said to be born on 14 October 1817 to Johannes Bezuidenhout and Marta Catherina Koertze https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSKD-Y3QB-Y?cat=95...

is she the same as the Martha Maria Bezuidenhout
Martha Maria Janse van Vuuren whose parents Johannes Bezuidenhout & Maria Catharina Coertze remember her birthdate as 13 October 1818 on his MOOC in 1833? https://www.geni.com/documents/view?doc_id=6000000071212292829

I must assume they are, and the elderly parents are misremembering her birth year in 1833.

1/11/2021 at 5:56 AM

oh dear - looks I have to revisit Elizabeth aka Aletta Elizabeth

There is def an Aletta Elizabeth Bezuidenhout Greber
Aletta Elizabeth Greber
whose Death Notice: KAB MOOC 6/9/66 2552 (1854) https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSQF-CS92-7?i=467&... gives her father as "Johannes Cornelis Bezuidenhout" and her mother as "Maria Catharina Coertze".
and her husband as Johannes Fredrick Anthonie Greber
No children
Gives her age as 52 - so, born 1802

1/11/2021 at 6:03 AM

On Johannes's 1833 MOOChttps://media.geni.com/p13/d4/56/cc/db/5344484680ed5add/mooc_8_48_2... the parents cite an Aletta Elizabeth Bezuidenhout who is 29 - so Born 1804

1/11/2021 at 6:05 AM

We have a baptism for an Elizabeth
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSV8-D9LM-Q?cat=99... born 1804 to a Johannes and Maria Catherina Coertze.

1/11/2021 at 6:20 AM

On Geni a Johannes Jurie Steyn is married to Elizabeth Bezuidenhout on geni - but with no documentary or other proof. MH has a profile that pinpoints the marriage at Oct 3 1831, but makes the wife's birth Nov 12 1812 and no parents.

I'm going to assume he is married to a different Elizabeth than this one and disconnect him from this one, pending sources.
