| Description |
Afrikaans: Bart Pretorius (22 Augustus 1803 – 25 September 1889, Broederstroom), 'n Voortrekker en een van drie jonger broers van Andries Pretorius. Hy is op 4 April 1836 as veldkornet van die Voor-Sneeubergwyk ingesweer, en het as laerkommandant saam met die Wenkommando teen die Zoeloes uitgetrek. Hy was een van vyf ruiters wat uit die Bloedrivierlaer gejaag het om die Zoeloes uit te lok om weer te storm, kyk: Die Groot Trek Gedenkdagboek, 1838–1988. De Jager-HAUM Uitgewers (Pta). Piet, Bart en Wynand het hulself in die 1840's naby die Krokodilrivier by die huidige Broederstroom (na hulle vernoem) gevestig, kyk: Willie Meyer (2012), Magaliesberg Kaleidoscope. Bart het c.1845 'n huis te Broederstroom gebou wat steeds staande is, en sy graf is ook nog te siene, kyk: eGGSA Andries Pretorius het sy broers in 1848 na die omgewing gevolg maar hy sterf 5 jaar later. Sy seun M.W. Pretorius het hom weereens daar gevestig.
English: Bart (Hercules Albertus) Pretorius (22 Aug 1803 – 25 Sep 1889, Broederstroom), a Voortrekker and one of three younger brothers of the Voortrekker leader Andries Pretorius. Photographer and date of photo unknown. Bart was sworn in as field cornet of the Cape Colony's Voor-Sneeuberg Ward on 4 April 1836, and once he arrived in Natal he trekked out against the Zulus as laager commandant with the Wen/Victory Commando. He was one of five horsemen who sallied out of the Blood River laager to provoke the Zulus into charging again, see: Die Groot Trek Gedenkdagboek, 1838–1988. De Jager-HAUM Publishers (Pta). During the 1840s Piet, Bart and Wynand settled near the Crocodile River at the current Broederstroom (named after them), see: Willie Meyer ( 2012), Magaliesberg Kaleidoscope. Bart built a house at Broederstroom c.1845 which is still standing, and his grave can also still be seen, see: eGGSA Andries Pretorius followed his brothers to this area in 1848 but died 5 years later. His son M.W. Pretorius once again established himself there. |
