Foenander. The structure across the river had been built in 1787 (approximately). The water that collected (as a result of the damming) was then diverted and carried along a two mile long channel that was cut through the country side and fed to the (formerly named) `Giruwa Oya'b4 which was over the last range of mountains before the vast low lying plains. By this engineering feat it was possible to irrigate the dry lands of the Hambantota District. However, although the `Urubokka Ganga'b4 was completely dammed as stated above, the river still flows (below the point of damming) along its original course with water that feeds it by the many other tributaries. Another outcome was that the `Giruwa Oya'b4 no longer is called by its name but, is now called (and also indicated in maps) as the `Urubokka Ganga'b4.

Samuel Pieter Foenander and Johanna Dorothea Juliana Wilhelmina Schorer had the following child:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      i  Samuel Johan Pieter FOENANDER was born on 14 Jan 1799.

  2. Hi and thank you I was able to some dates to my Maternal Lineal of Pieter Foenander, as I only had the information from my Nanna Avis Beryl Foenander, her parent Charles Lancelot Foenander and mum Sylvia Beryl Buultjens.

    Wondering if you could assist in any tips in how to find information on my Paternal side as new to search family tree.

    Thank you and regards

    Charmaine
