n Dogter Hester Hendrina Aletta Venter Gebore 29.05.1789 Doop 11.02.1790 Kaapstad. Doop:-https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HY-DZN4-WP2?i=137&cc=... (Hester Hendrina Aletta Venter)

Ek het van die dokumente na Johann Ahlers gestuur as bewyse. (Johann Ahlers)

Sy is met Johannes Coetzee b5c5d7e1 getroud. (Johannes Coetzee)

Daar was en is n groot probleem want n persoon het al die kinders ontkoppel van Johannes Coetzee en van die kinders is tans by verkeerde ouers. Ek het vir Herman Potgieter gevra om die regstelling te hanteer.

Daniel Botes is ook bereid om te help. (Daan Botes)

Hier is die Geni Profiel waar al die kinders is wat foutief is. Jan Abraham Coetzee Jan Abraham Coetzee

Sy broers en susters moet ook gemerge word.

Do we have sources for Hester's marriage to Johannes Coetzee and their children?

Hallo Sharon,

Ons was n hele span wat saam gewerk het en die Stambome is nou op plek. Herman Potgieter het al die merges hanteer.

Johannes Coetzee 1803 was met Hester Hendrina Venter 1805 getroud. Johannes Coetzee 1784 is met Hester Hendrina Aletta Venter 1789 getroud. Die persoon wat die ontkoppeling gedoen het blyk hy het die vrouens as een beskou.

Vertrou die inligting is voldoende.

Hallo Sharon,

Hester Hendrina Venter word op die doopregister van Graaff Reinet as die dogter van Tjaart Nicolaas van der Walt en Maria Elizabeth van der Walt aangegee. Gebore 01.02.1807 Doop 06.02.1807. Wonder net is die man se van per toeval verkeerd geskryf of is hy Venter. Volgens Hester Hendrina Venter/Coetzee se Sterfkennis word haar pa as Tjaart Nicolaas Venter aangegee. Doop:-https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSV8-D921-T?i=258&...

Sterfkennis:-https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSQF-MSS7-Z?i=143&...

Private User thank you for that > I don't see Venter on this DN: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSQF-MSS7-Z?i=143&... van der [Wie weet? ;-)]

Acc to the SAF data n the Overview, Venter is her mother's maiden name.:
Maria Elizabeth VAN DER WALT * dist. Colesberg c. 1788 4.9.1788 † “Vlakfontein”, dist. Middelburg Kp 7.6.1863 d.v. Hendrik van der Walt en Hester Venter

So: Hester Hendrina Coetzee 1807-1866:
do Tjaart Nicolaas v der Walt & Maria Elizabeth (do Hendrik v der Walt & Hester Venter)

  • Nicholas *Catharina Cornelia *Floris Andries *Hester Hendrina *Johannes Jacobus *Jon Hendrik *Maria Elizabeth *Hubrey Catharina

x Johannes Jacobus Coetzee (1803 - 1876)
(so: Floris Coetzee & Catharina De Klerk)

  • Floris Andries *Johannes Jacobus Adriaan *Jan Hendrik *Renske Wilhelmina Catherina *Hubrey Catherina Florina Fransina

Of course this is a problem: Tjaart Nicolaas Venter - which isn't Tjaart Nicolaas v der Walt & Maria Elizabeth V der Walt (do Hendrik v der Walt & Hester Venter)
Whole thing looks worryingly incestuous :-/

Alt Data Surname Coetzee de Klerk

Johanna Elizabeth Coetzee and Maria Elizabeth (i) Coetzee do not show on Hester Hendrina Coetzee 's DN.
Neither are sourced and neither has a death date.

Can the managers of these two see if they can find validating primary source docs, please?

These children on Johannes Jacobus Coetzee 's DN tally with most of the children given as majors on Hester Hendrina Coetzee 's DN in 1866

It's hard to figure out how Hubrey Catherina Florina went from a major in 1866 at her mother's death, to a minor - Hubrey Catherina Florina Francina - in 1876 at her father's death.

Given that Johannes is still listed as married in 1876 - should we assume thatt the first Hubrey died or dissappeared, and this similarly named one is a new child from a second marriage?

Huibrecht Catharina Florina Coetzee
Huibrecht Catharina Florina Coetzee, b5c4d9e8f9
Gender: Female
Birth: 06 March 1839
Death: 14 February 1875 (35)
Immediate Family:
Daughter of Johannes Jacobus Coetzee, b5c4d9e8 and Hester Hendrina Van der Walt
Wife of Nicolaas Abraham (Nic) Coetzee, b5c4d9e2f10

Johannes Jacobus Coetzee does have a sister called Huibrecht Catharina Florina Francina Magdalena Coetzee de Kock, b5c4d9e9

Huibrecht Catharina Florina Francina Magdalena de Kock, b5c4d9e9
Birth: 03 August 1816
Death: 07 August 1898 (82)
Immediate Family:
Daughter of Floris Petrus Coetzee, b5c4d9 and Catharina Cornelia de Klerk Coetzee
Wife of Daniel Jacobus de Kock; Nicolaas van der Walt, b8c6d2e2 and Petrus Arnoldus Pienaar, b2c3d4e3f3

I'm going to assume that Johannes Jacobus Coetzee (d 1876) has a marriage subsequent to that with Hester Hendrina Van der Walt (d 1866), and there is a child called Hubrey Catherina Florina Francina (named for her dead half sister and her paternal aunt) born to this marriage, who is still alive in 1876 when her elderly father dies.

This mother is a Venter, though.

The solution is contained in the facts in this doc:

Baptism 1816 Graaff Reinet

Anna Maria Elisabeth Venter (17 Jan 1816 -) Baptism 1 Sep 1816
d/o Maria Elisabeth Van Der Walt & Tjaard Nicolaas Venter
Getuigen: Tjaard Nicolaas van der Walt & Maria Elizabeth vdWalt


Which makes it clear that there are two Maria Elizabeth vdWalts:

  1. One is married to Tjaard Nicolaas Venter
  2. The other is married to Tjaard Nicolaas van der Walt

I think we've mixed them

Maria Elizabeth van der Walt b4c1d6
x Tjaart Nicolaas van der Walt

Maria Elizabeth Venter
x Tjaart Nicolaas Venter

Tjaart Nicholas vdWalt (above) is the brother of Maria Elizabeth vdWalt Venter (below)! - he happened to marry a woman with the same name as his sister! (They probably thought it was cute!!)

Eish - that's taken about 10 hrs to do :-/
