Albert Mouton
Albert Mouton (* in the 19th or 20th century ; † in the 20th century) was the third captain of the Rehoboth Baster in South West Africa from 1924 to 1925 .
Mouton was used as a captain on April 26, 1924 . Due to the peaceful invasion of the Rehoboth area and the city of Rehoboth by troops of the South African Union , Mouton was ousted on April 5, 1925. As a result of the so-called Baster Rebellion , the office of captain was abolished and the special rights and de facto independence of the area revoked.
It was not until 1977 that Ben Africa was proclaimed the fourth captain of the Baster.
