Van Rooyen Genealogy
Welcome to the Van Rooyen database I have been working on for over two decades, and remains an ongoing project.
The database reflects the descendants of the first Van Rooyen progenitor in South Africa, Cornelis.
You will find my own direct family research, so other names such as Naude, Raubenheimer, Louw, Jonker and others will appear, but they are limited, whereas with the Van Rooyens I hope to document all I can find.
I have added additional functionality to this database. Please send in any info you'd like to add to the database (which must be emailed to research@vanrooyen.africa) and family photos you'd like featured. Please do not create a user. Changes can only be made by sending them via myself.
With thanks, Gina Shepherd
