Hi Erik
Thanks SO much for the response! Yes you are correct, those dates seem strange! Originally in the South African geneology book called SA families, his birth date is shown as 1782. Only that. In more recent research, there is some debate about those dates and that is where the 1794 dates come from, but i have gone back to the Appelcryn researcher to ask for the source. I have no idea what County etc either.
I have a copy of his death certificate which just states in 1835 when he did, he was 53 years old -which matched the 1782. His wife mistakenly added that he was from Switzerland! That was confirmed by SAF that it was a mistake but I am not sure how - I don't know enough about tracking those records but I am asking around!
I have enquired with the Appelcryn researcher here whether there are any ship manifests to find out which ship he came on - the info is so little!
I will see what else I can find and get back in touch!
