General Notes
Voortrekker
DN has his death date as 6 MAR 1892.
Lived in the Agter-Sneeuberg (vroeer ondedr Graff-Reinet en later onder Cradock.) , Somerset.
South African Genealogies; GAFN, p340; Manuskrip van Dr J.A.Heese, RGN Library states: It is possible that he moved to Natal much later after his father as his 5th child (&after?) was born in PMB Visagie tells the same story in Voortrekkerstamouers.
At the time of his birth his parents were living in the Veldkornetskap of Veldkornet S. Coetzee
He was only 10 in 1834 when the Trek started. It must be assumed that he possibly moved back to Graaff Reinet as his parents would not have left him behind at that age. I question Heeses's assumption.
