Kerklidmaatskap was gewoonlik gekoppel aan 'n sekere polities - kulturele groep wat gewissel het tussen konserwatief en meer konserwatief onder die Voortrekkers en Boere. So is Gert Andries Jacobus Alberts, die Dorslandtrekker, se doop op 17/5/1836 in die Nederduits Gereformeerde Kerkrekords op Cradock opgeteken; sy tweede huwelik met Petronella Francina le Grange op 14/12/1879 opgeteken in die trouboek van die Reisende Gereformeerde Gemeente in die Kaokoveld in S.w.A. en is hy begrawe uit die Hervormde Kerk te Palanca in Angola waar hy op 21/4/1925 oorlede is.
