Andries Johan BRÜMMER⁽⁸⁰⁶⁾ was born on 11 Mar 1833.⁽⁸⁰⁷⁾ He was born on 11 Mar 1833 in Graaff-Reinet, Cape Province, South Africa.⁽⁴²⁵⁾ He was baptised on 19 May 1833 in Cradock, East Cape, South Africa.⁽⁸⁰⁸⁾ He died on 24 Jun 1875 in Lady Grey, Eastern Cape, South Africa.⁽⁸⁰⁹⁾ He was buried in Old Cemetery, Lady Grey, East Cape, South Africa.⁽¹¹⁾⁽¹⁴⁾ ⁽⁸¹⁰⁾
Based on the following facts, it is assumed that Andries Johan Brïmmer (b5c5) is buried in the Old Cemetery of Lady Grey, Block F, Grave No. 28. This grave has no headstone.

(1) The Old Cemetery Register indicates that an Andries J Brümmer is buried in the old Cemetery, Block F, Grave No. 28 and an Andries J Brümmer (Infant) is buried in the old Cemetery, Block F, Grave No. 27. The two graves are next to each other which indicates a possible relationship between the two - in this case possibly grandfather and grandson.

(2) At the time, there was only two Andries J Brümmer's in Lady Grey - one was the father of Pieter Wouter Brümmer and the other was an infant son of Pieter Wouter Brümmer. The infant is buried in Block F, Grave No. 27, therefore, Grave No. 28 must belong to Andries J Brümmer, the father of Pieter Wouter Brümmer.

3) According to South African Genealogies, Andries Johan Brümmer (b5c5) died in Lady Grey, therefore he is most possibly buried in the Old Cemetery at Lady Grey.

4) Andries Johan Brümmer (b5c5) died long before his wife and the grave next to him, Block F, Grave No. 27, was possibly kept for his wife, Maria Elizabeth De Wet. However, she married Philippus Jacobus Fouché after 1875, and after that, the grandson, Andries Johannes Brümmer died. It was possibly decided that she would be buried with her new husband and that the grave should be used for the grandson, Andries Johannes Brümmer.
He was also known as Andries Johannes Brummer.⁽⁴²⁵⁾
Ms. M. Joubert - SA Genealogical no.: b5c5 Parents: Michiel Johan Wieghard BRUMMER and Elizabeth Catharina PUTTER.

He was married to Maria Elizabeth DE WET on 11 Jan 1858 in Aliwal North, Cape Province, South Africa.⁽⁸¹¹⁾ Children were: Pieter Wouter BRÜMMER .

Andries Johannes BRÜMMER⁽¹⁴⁾ was born on 31 Dec 1896.⁽⁸¹²⁾ He died on 12 Oct 1897.⁽⁸¹³⁾ He was buried in Old Cemetery, Lady Grey, East Cape, South Africa.⁽⁸¹⁴⁾ ⁽¹¹⁾⁽¹⁴⁾
Grave Address as obtained from the Old Cemetery Register : Block F, Grave No. 27.
