Hy trou vir 'n derde keer met Martha Margaretha van Taak by wie hy twee seuns gehad het. It is interesting to note that the type of stone and the style of engraving of Nel’s and van Taak’s gravestones are similar although nine years apart (Grave 4 and Fig. 4). The sourcing of grave stones in the late 19th century would be an interesting project. (https://www.vassa.org.za/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Jrnl-15-full-text-web.pdf)

Die seuns, Jacobus, gebore 1 Desember 1843 en Jan Harmse, gebore 7 Mei 1847, se lewens was nou met die plaas Sewefontein verweef.

Who was interred in
this graveyard? Working backward through time we can discount the van Wyk
family, as when they purchased Papkuilsfontein they were resident on another
nearby farm, Matjesfontein, and already had a family graveyard. The
genealogical details are taken from Heese and Lombard unless otherwise noted.
