Catharina "Groote Catrijn" van Paliacatta, SM/PROG - Children of Groote Catrijn in 1673 Muster roll.

Private User, please could you post the link to Upham's reference. If I remember correctly he gave some of those an asterisk suggesting that they were worthy of further study. Have you checked the Muster roll for the other years between Athonij and Catrijn's marriage and deaths for children, and if so how does that tally?

Private?

1. Catrijn Wagenmakers vd Kaap *c.1657 ffyp has as disproved.http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/g5/p5248.htm I seem to have MPed to prevent merging ibto another CW profile. Will disconnect once I've had the chance to find the other one. (Unless someone gets a chance before me).

Petronella Everardsz, SM.e-family.co.za/ffy/g5/p5748.htm

Please someone research her.

Anthony Everaerts has no Sources. Disconnecting.

The Muster rolls for 1673 - 1679 all give two children. The 1682 entry only gives 1 child.

Cape Mothers article by M. Upham

"Anthonij came to this marriage with no children and they had no children together. Petronella (7) and Christoffel (4) are mentioned as his step-children, but Christoffel keeps his Snyman surname." The family are out of the news, except when they sued their neighbour about a duck (1674).

The children mentioned in the Muster rolls (1673 - 1679) were Petronella and Christoffel.

The 1682 Muster roll entry only gives 1 child.

In April 1683 preparations were made for Petronella's burial (p.19 In hevigen woede).

Yes, Sharon Doubell and Private User, thank you, we are now at a better place; from my recall it is only those two children that seemed certain, Christoffel and Petronella, of whose death we are certain.

Thank-you Sharon.

:-) Thanks are due all round; but it's nice to be appreciated. Thank you too, guys.
