Note : Headstones are fairly new and looks as if it was created long after the death of this family. In an telephonic conversation it was mentioned that it seems the family members who erected it used genealogical information found of the deceased. It was however confirmed that they were buried on the Farm Avontuur, Uniondale District: This can therefore only be seen as a secondary source with limited information, already found on their profiles.
