1903 CLAIMS COMPENSATION PROTECTED BURGHER
WAKKERSTROOM AND PIET RETIEF. JOHANNES PETRUS NELL
REF CJC 296:
He became a burgher of the Transvaal in 1875. He built
his farmhouse of stone with iron roof in 1881 at a cost of £700 using
skilled labour (totally destroyed). He
ran a private school at his home for his 4 youngest children and children of
relatives. He surrendered
voluntarily at Sandbank dist. Piet Retief on 19th
February 1901, arrived Volksrust on the 19th March and remained there for 10
months when he was given leave to go to Natal and where he remained until the
end of the war. His sons all served with the Piet Retief commando. Philip Jacobus Nel and Jacob Louis Poklenberg Nel
surrendered together with him. Stephanus Christiaan Nel and Willem Martinus Johannes Nel surrendered 1 March 1901.
The family lived together at Volksrust until his sons joined the
National Scouts. Upon claims amounting to £460 he had received £193, the rest of
the claim having been referred to the ARM Piet Retief. The commission
decided that he deserved special consideration as he was old and infirm, the
farm he owned was heavily mortgaged and his sons had all rendered service. He
was unlucky in receiving no receipt for his sheep (£1403 claimed) or bales of wool
(£100) but recommended an additional £100 to repair his home (his claim for
this was £897). He lists his address as Kromrivier, Piet Retief (Anita Campbell)
