Hendrik Nicholaas Barry
Married ANNA JOHANNA MARIA SCHOEMAN. The second Barry–Schoeman link. A BIRTH YEAR ARRIVED ON 28 SEPTEMBER 2026 FROM A 1999 LETTER: Pama gives him 1857, and names him as the child at whom this household moved — the siblings before him were born at BURGERSDORP, he and those after him at DORDRECHT. THE MIGRATION WAS TESTED ON 7 OCTOBER 2026 AND IT FAILS. His elder siblings were baptised at GRAAFF-REINET in 1847, 1848 and 1850 — not Burgersdorp — and the 1847 entry has been read at the image, witnessed by three Kolbes. Burgersdorp runs 1852–1855, Graaff-Reinet returns in 1861, and Dordrecht appears in 1864. So Pama compressed three or four stages into two and put the pivot on the wrong child. AND THE PIVOT IS HIM, which is the circular part: he has no font, so the only evidence for the year that makes him the pivot is the book that makes him the pivot. His 1857 stays inf for that reason and not out of politeness. AND A WARNING ATTACHED TO HIM. The same letter gives him a daughter ANNA JOHANNA MARIA BARRY, born 23 November 1884 — his wife's name entire. This archive holds the WIFE, Anna Johanna Maria Barry née Schoeman, who died in 1923. No daughter is entered on that basis: a compiler confusing a mother with a daughter of the same name is exactly the error this archive made five days ago with a widow, and one letter is not enough to make a person.

- 13 Sep 2026 — Margarietha Wilhelmina Elizabeth Barry was John Augustus Barry I’s daughter
She was his granddaughter. The 1915 death notice names eight children and she is not among them; her father is Hendrik Nicholaas Barry, whose other children were baptised at Dordrecht and Slang River between 1888 and 1900. Moved down a generation — which is where the cousin marriage of 1924 needs her to be, and the archive had her in the wrong place while asserting it. Where it stands →

A dossier is every mention of a person anywhere in this archive, gathered automatically after the site is built and linked back to the page it appears on. Identity here is by NAME, not by resolved individual — where two people share a name they share this page, and the archive says so rather than guessing. Nothing on a dossier page is new evidence; it is the same evidence, brought together.
