Message received from Paul Snook :

Concerning a member of my wife Deirdre Snook/Hebergs family Hellberg-50 who lost two wives in Graaff Reinet prior to 1837, he must have followed his son Helberg-190 the teacher on AH Potgieters trek which left Graaff Reinet 1834 and headed up to the Zoutspansberg.

There is no record of him in the Voortrekkerstamourers Book, but I have attached an image of his will and death record to his profile.

I suspect he trekked north after his wife Heyla, De_Beer-516 died in Graaff Reinet, 1837.

Does the Project have any additional information concerning Adams migration to the Zoutspansberg.
