| Notes: | Sy mag in die rekords so aangeteken wees. Mense was duidelik op Engelse
spellings opgeteken: "Christian" vir "Christiaan", "Petersen" vir
"Pietersen", ens. maar haar name was in werklikheid PIETER HENDRIK PIETERSEN
(later OLIVIER, gebore HENNING). Sy was haar lewe lank as "Pieta" bekend. Sy
is vernoem na haar pa, Pieter Hendrik Henning, wat 'n maand voor haar
geboorte dood is. Sy is aangeteken op die Henning Familiekroniek ('n
onmoontlike webwerf om enigiets op te soek, so ek ek heg dit eerder vir
julle hierby aan as 'n aanhangsel). Die "Petronella Hendra" is beslis 'n
innovasie van iemand wat nie kon glo dat sy regtig mansname het nie! Haar
man op daardie stadium was JOHANNES CHRISTAAN PIETERSEN en nie "Christian
Johannes" soos julle gegewens sê nie. Hulle seun was CHRISTIAAN WILHELMUS
PIETERSEN wat by julle aanteken is as "Christian Willem Petersen" (ID
94509). |
