Johannes Waldeck obtained burgher status on 17-sep-1817.
How does one obtain the details of his application ? He is supposed to have
arrived in Capetown about 1790. What possibly could the reason be for the
long time lapse between arrival & obtaining burgher status ? He is known to
have traded as a shop-keeper from 1809 onwards. Was trade possible by
non-citizens ?
