• General Comment. ² She was born in 1860 or 1861 (her birth certificate could not be found). She was the epitome of a little Victorian lady, with a lovely personality. AJVR records that he remembers her well, with her upright body and her lace high-necked bodices. Sadly she was blind for years before her death, and was looked after by a Mrs. Peterson. Her daughter, Eileen also lived there. There was continued debate as to whether she reached 100 or only 99. She died in 1960. La Rochelle then passed to the 4 children until her daughter, Vera West, bought it. Then to Vera's sons Ray and Elles, until Ray sold it (Elles was in USA). A later owner applied for and received the National Monuments listing.
She was a very competent pianist. Elles remembers her playing a Chopin Etude. She was an artist too, and also spoke French.

Gertrude married Anthony Van Ryneveld, son of Daniel Johannes Van Ryneveld and Anna Christina Wilhelmina Berrangé, on 8 Jun 1886.¹ (Anthony Van Ryneveld was born on 25 Feb 1860 in Graaff-Reinet, Eastern Cape, South Africa,¹ ^,2 ^,3 died on 25 Aug 1936 in Cape Town, Cape Province, South Africa ¹ ^,2 ^,3 and was buried in Cape Town, Cape Province, South Africa.)

There will inevitably be errors and omissions and the whole purpose of creating this online record, is to invite feedback and corrections.
The data is specifically for non-commercial use and my clear intention is to build family records. The data may, therefore, not be used in any way for the purposes of financial gain.

Caveat:- Throughout the project UK GRO birth, marriage and death index data appears. The GRO data appears in Quarters. Q1 = January, February and March, Q2 = April, May, June , Q3 = July, August and September and Q4 = October, November and December. Similarly, Mar Q = January, February and March, Jun Q = April, May, June , Sep Q = July, August and September and Dec Q = October, November and December. Where these dates occur, they represent the date of Registration of the event rather than the date of the actual event. Logically, registration occurs AFTER the event. In some cases this may be days or months or even years after the event. The important thing is that the event was recorded and a copy of the document of registration could be obtained if necessary. This also applies to South African NAAIRS records.

Similarly, the UK system is confusing to the uninitiated because registration districts can span several counties. Accordingly GRO locations may not record the true location of the event. They do record where the record is actually kept or recorded.

Caveat #2:- I have used URL's throughout the website as sources. The URLs are often from paid subscription sites so you may not be able to access them without an account. Inevitably there are broken URL's. I have been to every URL recorded here and at the time they were operational. In this regard, the Ancestry24 records are a problem. There are numerous references in the South African data citing Ancestry24 records. Unfortunately Ancestry24 has closed down and these records are no longer available on line.

The early South African records on this site would not have been as good as they are without the work done by Delia Robertson. Where there are website addresses containing http://www.e-family.co.za... I record the citation should read Robertson, Delia. The First Fifty Years Project.
