SUMMARY
Library of Congress Linked Data Service name-authority record for Johanna Brandt, retrieved via EXA discovery citing the LOC's own structured authority fields (not prose synthesis). States Birth Date 1876-11-18, Death Date 1964-01, Birth Place Heidelberg (Gauteng, South Africa), maiden name Van Warmelo (per 'Die visioene van Johanna Brandt,' 1994, p. 9). The record's own citation notes list a 'Wikipedia WWW site, Aug. 12, 2009' consultation as the most recent dated source note visible on the fetched record, which is the basis for the year field here (the record itself, per LOC/NACO convention, is a living, periodically-revised entry rather than a single-dated publication). Cited secondary works disagree on the exact death day (13, 21, or 23 January 1964); the authority record's own controlled field gives only month precision ('1964-01'), which is the precision used in this case's prose. Deterministic library-catalog authority record.
