I found two records:-
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KYJ4-QPV
His wife is clearly recorded as Rachel Christina in the christening record of their daughter Mary Ann Christina in 1900.

And

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:KYJ4-HHM
His wife is clearly recorded as Rachel Christina in the christening record of their daughter Susan Magdalena in 1903.

It is highly unlikely he got the name of his wife wrong twice. In both records he is a plate layer and lives in Beaconsfield.

In any event, I have shown him with wives both named Rachel. They may be the same person.

• Children. In the Geni Data there is Roelof Johannes Van Ryneveld (Nov 1897 - 1975)

10 Jan 2013 I am more than ever convinced he is the same person as Roelof Johannes Van Ryenveld[4112] who married Martha Van Stade Groenewald[4113]

12 Jan 2013 I am even more convinced. There is almost certainly a missing generation in the Geni time line at
http://www.geni.com/people/Roelof-van-Ryneveld/6000000009014140484
There is no question his dates or his parents are wrong at Geni.
Roelof Johannes Van Ryneveld (16 Nov 1897 - 1975) is person [164] and his parents are beyond doubt.

On the other hand , The Kenya Gazette has Rolph, Daniel Johannes and Elizabeth at Farm 23 Eldoret on 20 Dec 1927.

info 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.
