Hi Des, Thank you so much for your support and excellent mentoring!!! Much appreciated!!! I wanted to give you a fantastic badge but you have them all! I write this message instead and suggest that WikiTree create another badge just for you!

Desireé, Thank you for your consistent improvement of WikiTree by participation in the Sourcerers Project during 2023!

Desireé, What can I add to the appreciation shown by others. Absolutely fabulous might do for a start. I have no idea how you find the time to support WikiTree to the extent that you do. I think I can speak for all your fans when I say we love you. I'm getting old now and have slowed down considerably so I can appreciate the effort required when you are contributing to our trees. You are filling in detail that I couldn't have imagined finding in my own researches. Thank you, John

Thank you so much for stepping up and taking on a project c role for the South African project

Baie dankie Des dat jy jouself bereid verklaar het om as koordinator op te tree

Ek wil ook van hierdie geleentheid gebruik maak om my dank uit te spreek vir alles wat jy doen vir ons projek.

Dit word opreg waardeer

Thank you for giving of your time to enhance our South African family

We are delighted to have you on our team !

Goeie more Desireé

Hoop dit gaan nog goed.

Ek sien jy is intensief besig met die Brits geslag wat uit die Olivier lyn voorspruit en het dus al die "nie direkte" Brits kinders "weeskinders" gemaak om jou navorsing van die familie te vergemaklik.

Dankie vir al jou harde werk

Dit word opreg waardeer

Lekker werk !!! R

We appreciate your consistent work in improving WikiTree through the Sourcerers Project in 2022!

Hi Desireé, how can https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/De_Villiers-2794 born 1769 be a brother of https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/De_Villiers-1718 born 1815? Please be very careful when connecting profiles with recurring name conventions … !

Thank you, Desireé, for every one of your more than one thousand contributions to our Shared Tree during the month of September. The Appreciation Team honors you for all of your efforts.

Hi Desireé, a warm albeit belated welcome to WikiTree! Thanks for adding sources to the profile of Debora Susanna (Malherbe) Hauptfleisch (bef. 1770 - 1808). As you see, many / most of the South African genealogical lines and profiles of the eigtheenth and seventeenth periods (and earlier) have already been made. Many have also been validated with primary sources.

A few handy links:

1. Getting Started
2. Adding to WikiTree.
3. Pre-1700 Quiz (self-certifying in order to understand better how to de pre-1700 genealogical work on WikiTree)
4. What are duplicates? Why should and how can they be avoided?
5. G2G Help - for any questions you may have ....

Perhaps you would like to join the South African Roots Project ? Besides links to sources, there help pages that are also useful.

(In Afrikaans) - in Suid-Afrika, Nederland en elders word die tussenvoegsel in vanne met klein letters gespel, tensy dit anders op die primêre rekords gespel word, byvoorbeeld van der Merwe, van der Walt, van den Berg, du Preez, de Villiers ens. Die vanne wat aangemaak word met tussenvoegsels in hoofletters (dit gebeur automaties in WikiTree) , kan jy regmaak deur dit in “edit” mode te verander in 'n van met klein tussenvoegsels (met as rede aangee dat dit die konvensie is vir Afrikaanse vanne), en dan weer te “save”.
