Hi hmarryatt,

I only know that my grandmother's name was dollie. But she born a Wassermann and got married into the Botes Family. She was not born a Botes.

To the rest, guys you can also go on facebook and look up Henriette vander merwe. She has all the information of the family. She is the daughter of my aunt Betty, or look up Henk Botes on facebook. He is the last remining HG Botes, the fourth generation. He is much older and will give you all the history of the farms Mooidam, Hammanskrall and the third farm. There is still land that is owned by my Grand fathers cousint's wife Sannie Botes.

Hi everybody that is looking for the Botes family tree. I am the grandson of Hendrik Gerhardus Botes(Hennie) born on 24 March 1911, from Brandfort in the Free state. My great grandfather Had three farms named Mooidam, Hammanskraal but the name of the third farms might have been Walmansdal but I am not sure. I cant remember.  He was married to Hubrecth vander linde. My grand dad Hendrik Gerhardus Botes(Hennie) was Married to Izabella Elizabeth Wassermann(Dollie) Born24 September 1911 and got married on 28 March 1933.  My uncle Drikie inhert the farms after my Grandfather died and in 1987 he sold the farms and moved to Beinsvlei just outside of Bloemfontein. He died in 2001. If you want more info let me know. I am a grandson to the biggest Botes farmers in Branfort Free state and spended every holiday on the farm when I was still a child.
