Mauri
son of Ramasami
Village confirmed by 3 family members

A passenger's wife and children shared one native village, so when 3 family members who travelled together on the UMTATA II 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.
