Son of Charles Olivier and Martina Betina Olivier (nee Kemp), of South Africa. Brother of Maria, Johanna, Charles, Cornelis, Egbert, and Martin. Born Petrus Steyn, South Africa.
26 Aug 2026: Unit leftover "2 South African Infantry Battalion" → Royal Canadian Corps of Signals (SAWGP Regiment, no Unit). | Locality was wrongly set to "Gauteng" -- corrected 28 Aug 2026 (second pass, this time verified against Cemetery rather than AddInfo text, after the first AddInfo-based pass was found to be unreliable and reverted). This person's own Cemetery is unambiguously outside South Africa; several other people at the same cemetery already correctly show a blank Locality. Cleared rather than guessed at a specific region.
4 Sep 2026: Regiment leftover "Royal Canadian Corps of Signals" (a branch, not a specific regiment) moved to Corps, per John's decision on the broader Regiment/Corps field-swap review.
