Paul Maree / De Mare De Salgas - WARNING: AT RISK PROFILE LINE

Second, Problems seems to occur with GENI merges in the Mare family because: there are two Ignace Mares, and two Catherina Mares. In each case, the elder had a portrait painted of them, as did their father, Paul Mare. Merge confusions seem to occur most often over conflating the elder Catherina Mare with her name-sake niece, Catherina Mare, who then also became her daughter-in-law (with the effect that they both become Catherina Van Vuuren on marriage.)

Therefore, I think it should look like this (if we remove extra siblings)

A) Paul Maré marries NN
-A1) Ignatius Maré (1684)
-A2) Catharina Maré (1692)

B) Gerrit Jansz van Vuuren (1667) marries Suzanne van Vuuren (1671)
-B1) Susanna Janse van Vuren, SM (1691)
-B2) Johannes Janse van Vuuren (1694)

THEN THE BROTHERS & SISTERS, MARE & VAN VUUREN, MARRY EACH OTHER in 1706 & 1713:
-A1 m B1) In 1706 Ignatius Maré (1684) marries Susanna Janse van Vuren, SM (1691)
--C1) Ignatius Maré (1729)
--C2) Francina du Plessis (1718) (apparently named after her aunt)

-A2 m B2) In 1713 Catharina Maré (1692) marries Johannes Janse van Vuuren (1694 )
--D1) Gerrit Janse van Vuuren (1716) (apparently named for his grandfather)
--D2) Susanna Janse van Vuuren (1732)

THEN THE COUSINS MARRY in 1738:
--C2 m D1) In 1738: Francina du Plessis (1718) marries her cousin , Gerrit Janse van Vuuren (1716)

I've been forced to lock lots of these, otherwise they get mis-merged on a weekly basis :-) I really hate doing that, but in this case it's a full-time job fixing it the whole time.

So please just contact me if you want to add more info onto the profile, or if you have more info that challenges the above.
Let's get it right together :-)

See related Discussion http://www.geni.com/discussions/110795 about whether these Ignace i & Catherina i are brother & sister or father & daughter.

Private has contacted me about this issue. (Yaaay, finally someone wants to talk about this one :-) )
She provides details to follow up in research, so it seemed useful to put them here too - so everyone else can follow our discussion, OR JUMP IN & HELP US, as we untangle the best version to put on these profiles:

"Dear Sharon,

I am contacting you about this profile: Francina du Plessis

The daughter of Ignace Mare baptised in 1718 was called Franciskelle: 'Anno 1718; Den 27ste Nov: Franciskelle, doghter van Ignatius Marre en van Sùsanna Janse Van Feure. Getuijgen de ouders selfs.'

She married Pieter du Plessis: '17 April [1745]. Pieter du Plessies van Cabo de Goede Hoop Burger aan Drakensteijn Wedu. En Francina Marais van Cabo voornoemd Jonge Dogter.'

See http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/g10/p10776.htm

I don't find another Catharina Mare, except the one who married Jan Janse van Vuuren, amongst Ignace's children.

Their first child was baptised 9 Feb 1716: 'Anno 1716; Den 9de Febr; Gerrit, soon van Jan Janse van Veùren en Catharina Marai. Getùijgen Sùsanna Janse Van Veùren en Ignatius Marai.'

This Catharina Mare must then have been born at least about 1696 or 1697 or earlier, which accords with the sister/daughter of Ignace Catharina Mare born 1692.

I think there was only the one Catharina Mare.

Why do you think there were two?

Sincerely
Jansi Syfert"

OK, I have to Follow this step by step, Sorry if it looks painstakingly slow:

Private says "I don't find another Catharina Mare, except the one who married Jan Janse van Vuuren, amongst Ignace's children"

-I think the other Catherina Mare you are looking for is the one who marries "Gerrit, soon van Jan Janse van Veùren en Catharina Marai"

Let me go and search out the source for that.

(PS We need to add these sources from the 1st 50 Yrs project to all these profiles too. Please come and help do that)

Hmm, so far the only source for Gerrit marrying Catherina is ancestry, and no good validation for it: http://records.ancestry.com/Gerrit_Van_Vuuren_records.ashx?pid=4366...

I've started a Discussion http://www.geni.com/discussions/111508 asking Judith Susanna Hendrika Meyer if she has sources, or for their daughter.

Hi Sharon, I'm following what you are doing and will wait for clarification before changing my records. Good job opening this up.

The SAG has a number of mistakes in the Van Vuuren register. From what I can see it appears that Daniel and Andries Van Vuuren [both married Viljoens] are incorrectly placed as the children of Johannes Van Vuuren & Catherine Maree when they belong under Johannes Van Vuuren & Johanna Oelofse.

Gerrit Van Vuuren is placed as the younger brother of Daniel and Andries with the SAG having Gerrit Van Vuuren as the husband of Catherine Maree. It is also a good idea to confirm Gerrit Van Vuuren's parentage as it is quite possible that Johannes Van Vuuren son of Gerrit Jansz may have been documented as Gerrit Van Vuuren, when in actual fact they are the same individual with the possible full name of Johannes Gerritsz Van Vuuren [x Chaterine Maree]. Just a thought

Private User please could you add that information about the van Vuurens to the ~Irregularities project? http://www.geni.com/projects/Irregularities-in-South-African-Geneal...

It would be good to support the information with documents if you can get your hands on them?

Okay - that's really getting somewhere, Alexander Ace Researcher. Let's wait for Judi to weigh in too, but please remind me if I forget that we're in the middle of this. (I'm going on a Viking Invasion Cruise in a week's time - so am busy on the Orkney/ Scots families right now.)

Alex and June (if her work on her book leaves her available?) can you weigh in on this discussion http://www.geni.com/discussions/110795 about taking action on this?

I've had a message from Private asking us to move on this:

Hi Sharon
I've had a look at the discussion on this question and also the other discussions around Ignace Mare.

It appears that no-one had any objection to this Catherina being, in fact, Francina, b 1718.

Please unlock the profile for me to update her? I'll also upload the source documents.

And the other Catharina, Catharina the elder should be merged with the eldest daughter of Ignace - that also appeared to be acceptable to all.

And in this case a discussion about alternative data after merges is a definite must!

Private User and Private User and Judith Susanna Hendrika Meyer can you weigh in here?

Unless there are objections, I suggest we go forward with this tomorrow morning.

Looks like it should go ahead - there has been enough time lapsed on this!

Please see this discussion too: http://www.geni.com/discussions/110795?page=4

I'm in agreement as things stand. If new info arises then we can review the decision but for now I say we should go ahead.

Having changed her from being Catherina the Younger to Francina Mare - who married Pieter Charlz du Plessis,
we still have the problem of ‘divorcing’ her from Gerrit Janse van Vuuren (easy), while deciding WHO GETS THE CHILDREN (harder)

Help…..:-)

Private, do you want to continue with it?

I'll upload the source documents that I have. I've ordered her will - will upload as soon as I receive it.

Damn fantastic! You go girl!

Voorspoedige 2016

Ek het vasgestel dat Catharina MAREE (1692) die direkte lyn voormoeder van my vrou se paternale lyn is. M.a.w. my skoonpa se mtDNA. Hy is al oorlede, maar miskien kan mens sy suster oortuig om 'n mtDNA toets te doen.

Groete

Jaco

Jaco, I'm thinking you are the closest person to her to ask :-)

Voorspoed vir jou ook Jaco. Ja ek dink ook jy is die een om te vra. Jy weet in elk geval meer van die dinge as ek. Daaroor is ek dood eerlik.
Groete
Juds
