George Augustus Kolbe of 1845 Colesberg 12 Mar 1848 Document Willem Johannes Kolbe baptised at Fauresmith, entry 18 Born 2 August 1847 , son of John Kolbe and Anna Jacoba van der Merwe — the first document this archive holds that names a child of the Commandant's household. It also corrects his birthday : the Afrikaans dictionary account, read at one remove through a Wikipedia article, gives 9 July 1847 and the district of Philippolis. A register entered seven months after the birth beats a dictionary compiled a century later.…

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.
