Death date and place "- Skarrild"? added from a MH match. No validation. Possibly erroneous. We had no death date before, though (just Cape Town, for place) - so I'm putting it here to be researched further.

Skarrild is in Denmark. The MH source gives, in addition to the 12 Mar death, a burial date of 22 Marts 1807.

Is it likely she was buried in Denmark?
If so, did she die there or here in Cape Town?

The husband given with this MH profile is Johannes Hendrikus De Lange, Adriaan (the husband we have)'s brother.

But the MH profile has Johannes contracting a second Marriage to: Anna Johanna Maria Oosthuizen on Apr 25 1779, before the 1807 death it has for Gesina.

Looks like a typical MH mash-up to me, but the details of Denmark burials (eg also for Johannes: Apr 5 1840, Tørring, Vrads herred, Skanderborg amt hos hans datte Helle Catrhine Margrethe) are interestingly contradictory to what we have for them - which is South Africa.

MH link: (as I don't want to confirm it, but it offers further records to consult) http://www.myheritage.com/research/collection-1/myheritage-family-t...

I am sure Lea would know more as would Daan. Personally I hardly ever look at MH matches.

Another merge in with Cape as deathplace.

I've removed the Denmark death place, pending source confirmation

Can not find death date or place of death for her --searching !
