   English: Age (97.8.12). Jean Blanckenberg, known researcher of Wynberg (she specializes in research on land), a few years ago called me from a storm that raged in 1822 in the Western Cape. A survey of the damage caused by the storm, were made and the documents have been preserved. She recently for my references to the sources given in this regard, and I did today then look er alia, the following two entries on basis damage in Franche angle L Zeberits - three gables cases - 2 of outbuilding and one of the Mool. C Mijer - a gable case of the shed. She mentioned that she also sources in hand which had detailed diagrams of farmyards appear - as she will find I pass on the relevant sources 1/19/125 STB contains information about a large fire on December 28, 1803 in Stellenbosch raged. There appears also returns the damage people suffered. There are returns for inter alia the following individuals Abraham Mechiel Ackermann Coenraad Engelbrecht Ackermann Josias Hoffman (a? B1c2) (father of Anne Marie HOFFMAN) Jacob Wiehaan Borghardt Ulkes Smit Willem Lamberts The residents could apply for interest-free loans to help them to get back on track. Information regarding the repayment of the loan for the period 1804-1834 is also available. Then she pointed to my 1 / STB 13/35 which covers the period 1762-1793. The tape contains dokterssertfikate and statements by citizens explaining why a particular citizen is not able to follow the re milite obligations. Here are excerpts from some of the documents (they are surely long enough that they died descendants I will not blame because I did not make the information public) The Chirurgyn Georg Carel Lodwyk Geering declared on 30.10.1769 regarding Jan le Roux Peters J (?) Soon 'come to me is complaining about pain in abdomen Sijn. So adds to denselven naukeurig gevisiteerd and found that the Selve eenen fraction hadde 'The Chirurgyn John van den Bosch on 12.14.1765 declaring 'that den farmer Jan Hendrik Venter subject to eene continuele jigt soo on hands and feet' (Greetings Daniel Jacobs dmjacobs@@absamail.co.za ; Bellville, Western Cape).

   Afrikaans: Ouderdom: (97.8.12). Jean Blanckenberg, bekende navorser van Wynberg (sy spesialiseer veral in navorsing oor grond), het 'n paar jaar gelede vir my genoem van 'n groot storm wat in 1822 in die Wes-Kaap gewoed het. 'n Opname van die skade wat deur die storm aangerig is, is gemaak en die dokumente het behoue gebly. Sy het onlangs vir my verwysings na van die bronne in die verband gegee en ek het vandag daarna gaan kyk: 1/STB 19/126 bevat o.a. die volgende twee inskrywings n.a.v. skade in Fransche hoek: L Zeberits - drie gewels gevallen - 2 van een buite gebou en een van die mool. C Mijer - een gewel gevalle van de stal. Sy het genoem dat sy ook bronne onder hande gehad het waarin gedetailleerde diagramme van plaas werwe verskyn - as sy weer die betrokke bronne opspoor sal ek dit deurgee: 1/STB 19/125 bevat inligting oor 'n groot brand wat op 28 Desember 1803 in Stellenbosch gewoed het. Daar verskyn ook opgawes van die skade wat mense gely het. Daar is opgawes vir o.a. die volgende individue: Abraham Mechiel Ackermann Coenraad Engelbrecht Ackermann Josias Hoffman (a?b1c2)(voorvader van Annemarie HOFFMAN). Jacob Wiehaan Borghardt Ulkes Smit Willem Lamberts Die inwoners kon aansoek doen vir rentevrye lenings om hulle te help om weer op die been te kom. Inligting m.b.t. die terugbetaling van die lenings vir die periode 1804-1834 is ook beskikbaar. Dan het sy my ook verwys na 1/STB 13/35 wat die periode 1762-1793 dek. Die band bevat dokterssertfikate en verklarings deur medeburgers waarin verduidelik word waarom 'n spesifieke burger nie in staat is om militêre verpligtinge na te kom nie. Hier volg uittreksels uit 'n aantal van die dokumente (hulle is darem seker al lank genoeg oorlede dat hulle nasate my nie sal kwalik neem omdat ek die inligting openbaar maak nie): Die Chirurgyn Georg Carel Lodwyk Geering verklaar op 30.10.1769 t.o.v. Jan le Roux Pieters J (?) Soon: "bij mij gekomen is klagende over pijn in sijn onderlijf. So hebbe denselven naukeurig gevisiteerd en bevonden dat de selve eenen breuk hadde" Die Chirurgyn Johannes van den Bosch verklaar op 14.12.1765: "dat den land bouwerJan Hendrik Venter onderhewig is aan eene continuele jigt soo aan handen als voeten" Groete Daniel Jacobs (dmjacobs@@absamail.co.za ; Bellville, Wes-Kaap).
