Marthinus Jansz van Staden, b1

Martinus van Staden 1

farmer (1707) 2

of Paarl Diamant 3

born 1675 4

baptized 6 June 1675, Werkhoven, Utrecht 5

died between September and December 1707 6

Notes:

There is no record of their marriage and it is likely that it took

place at Drakenstein since the church registers of that church

before about 1717 are missing, whereas those for Stellenbosch

are extant from 1700 onwards.

In the monsterollen (muster rolls) of 1700 Marthinus Staden is

listed without any wife (although wives are not listed in every

year, in this year they were), In the opgaafrollen (tax returns)

for 1702 he is listed as having 1 wife and 1 daughter and living

in the Cape district - in the same year he and Aletta baptised

their first child in the church at Cape Town.

In 1705 he and his wife, named as Aaltie van der Merwe, still

have just one daughter, but now they are living in Drakenstein.

On 6th September 1707 he signed a document waiving his right

to his maternal inheritance, but by the 31st December of that

year he was dead, since Aletta is listed in the muster rolls of that

date as his widow.

By the time of the Opgaaf of 1709, Aletta had married Claas Jansz

van Rensburg, and he is listed with one wife, two sons and one

daughter, and living in Drakenstein.

It has occurred to me to wonder whether, in the baptism

recorded on the 27th June 1706 at Drakenstein, the name

'Marthe' is in fact a mistake for 'Marthinus'.
