Village confirmed by 2 family members

A passenger's wife and children shared one native village, so when 2 family members who travelled together on the UMLAZI X agree on the village, the place is corroborated — not a lone transcription that could be a clerk's typo. "Confirmed" here means agreement between historical records, not human verification.
