Could this in fact be George Ruthven (*London 6 Jan 1816 ≈London 18 Jan 1816, owner of "Langkloof", distr. Middelburg), father of Willem Barend (husband of Martha Jacoba) and David Daniel (owner of "Grijsappel")? His wife had died 10 years previously and he might have lived in the care of his daughters-in-law.)
