About Petrus Stephanus van der Merwe

I strongly suspect that this Petrus Stephanus/Stevanus van der Merwe is the same as Petrus Stephanus van der Merwe
If you agree, we could merge the profiles (PH20221207)

Marriage in 1867 in Potchefstroom - perhaps an error recording his surname as Janse v Vuuren instead of vd Merwe??

The address details in this death document are aligned with the details on his daughter's and wife's death docs... signed by son-in-law WJ de Lange
His age is given as 87, so a YoB of 1848
His daughter Maria Elizabeth married Willem Jacobus de Lange in 1906, so this is almost 100% the right record for this Petrus Stephanus vdMerwe
