I'm helping a friend look for any more info on Gerardus Hendrikus Franciscus Wingels. The only certain source I have is a marriage in 1926, it says that he was born in Holland. I think I've found a possible death record and have added it in the research notes section. This death notice brings up a possible match on familysearch to this profile, and I'd love to hear any thoughts/suggestions. I really don't know what I'm doing when looking at records from Holland. Any help would be much appreciated!
He was born 16 June 1891 in Waalwijk, son of Johannes Franciscus Wingels and Elisabeth van Riel.
He departed to Durban, Z. Afrika on 1 August 1922. See image, line 44.
That is fantastic, thank you Jan!!! The son of Johannes Franciscus Wingels and Elizabeth van Riel had come up as a possible match on familysearch, which is what prompted this question in here. I couldn't see a way to tie him to SA...thank you thank you thank you, my friend is going to be so happy
