I have come accross Catharin's Cornelisz Baptism records, and it states her father was Evertsz Cornelisz and mother Maria Syn Siegertz. It looks like an 'S" in Syn, but perhaps that stands for another letter. Not sure. Date of baptism 2 July 1673.

I cannot copy and put under her Sources on Geni.
Name on FamilySearch is:
Catharina Evertsz Cornelis van der Zee

ID No. 9XGN-C7B

The "Evertsz" part of Catharina's surname suggests that she was the daughter of Evert. The first baptism to take place on or after 1 July 1673 (the arrival date of the ship "Europa") at Cape Town for a child with the name Catharina (or variants thereof) happens to have been the following day. The parents were given as Evert Cornelisz and Maria Syn Siegertz (on baptism records)

Just not sure her parents d.o.b. are correct though.

I read a note somewhere on her profile, that Maria Willemse was her guardian or foster mother or something like that, but her actual mother on her baptism records say her mother was Maria Syn Siegertz.

I thought you may have more info on her.

So I am not sure her mother is entire accurate on her profile.

And I also don't know what the correct name of her profile should be, with all these different names and surnames!?
