There are errors in this entry:
Catharina de Berault, baptised on 5th November 1684, supposedly the daughter of Louis de Berault and Catharina van de Kaap, and said to have married Barend Pieterse Blom, is the subject of this baptism entry:
eodem dito (5 November 1684)
{De name der gedoopen} Catharina
{de ouders} [Kees] de Bo[e]r en Catharina
{de getuigen} Marytie van Juffr. Beroo
The above is from the eGSSA transcription of Cape Town Baptisms for 1665-1695. The original had the details across the page in columns which were transcribed vertically and I have added the headings in braces for clarity. The entry refers to Catharina Cornelisz, daughter of Cornelis Claesz of Utrecht, aka Kees de Boer, the very same Catharina referred to at the end of the Barend Pietersz Blom entry, where it states that some sources give her baptism date as 5 November 1784 and explains that this refers to the daughter of Kees de Boer. However, Kees de Boer married Catharina van Bengalen / Malabar / De Cust Coromandel on 15th March 1676 - "Den 15 Dito (Maart 1676) Cornelis Claasz van Uytregt vrijborger en Catharina van Malbaar" (Cape Town Marriages 1665-1695; eGSSA transcription) - and could not have fathered a daughter baptised more than a century later.
There is an article by Mansell Upham ("The Soetkoek Syndrome", written in 2001 and reproduced in a posting in the RootsWeb BUITENPOSTEN mailing list in February 2005), in which he concludes that the wife of Barend Pieterse Blom was one Catharina de Beer, origin unknown, and not a daughter of Louis de Berault and Catharina van de Kaap. The article explains in some detail how a "mythology" developed around the subject, but there is a simple alternative to disprove Louis de Berault's connection with Catharina "de Berault": Catharina was baptised in Cape Town in November 1684, and Louis de Berault did not arrive at the Cape until nearly four years later, on the Zuid-Beveland on 19th August 1688, along with his sister Anne and her husband Rev Paul Simond (I cannot find a primary source for this - perhaps someone can oblige - but I do not believe it is disputed).

Catharina de Beer
b. circa 1678
Father-putative* Hans Beer b. c 1650, d. bt 9 Apr 1679 - 19 Aug 1679
Mother-putative* Iba Antonica van Timor b. c 1662
Catharina de Beer was born circa 1678 in Mauritius.
Catharina de Beer was baptized on 8 February 1693 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), de Caep de Goede Hoop.
She married Barend Pietersz Blom in 1692.

Page 13: By this time [1679] his [Amsoeboe's] daughter Iba is presumably already mother to two illegitimate halfslag daughters (later baptized at the Cape as Willemina [sic] and Catharina van Mauritius becoming known as Hermina Carels: and Catharina [de] Beer / Bero, respectively).

:: Two female-line descendants of Ansela van de Caap have now been identified belonging to mtDNA haplogroup L0a1. (http://www.geni.com/projects/South-African-mtDNA-Female-Progenitors...). :: The exciting news is that they represent 2 different lines stemmingfrom Anna van der Swaan, Ansela 's granddaughter. The matching results confirm that Anna van der Swaan belonged to L0a1. Unfortunately only one of Ansela 's daughters produced a mitochondrial lineage (continuous female line)...so this is the closest "triangulation" that can be made to Ansela herself, but with no evidence in the genealogical record to doubt that Anna van der Swaan was the biological grand-daughter of Ansela....it seems reasonable to conclude that Ansela also belonged to haplogroup L0a1. :: The FFY Project reports that an 8th gen. descendant of Catharina de Beer (believed to be the daughter of Iba van Timor) belongs mtDNA haplogroup N (http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/ui86.htm). While a second result (descending from the same line) would be desirable to confirm this finding, the evidence thus far indicates that Iba van Timor and Ansela van de Caap (Campher) could not have been biological sisters, as their descendants do not share the same mtDNA haplogroup.The finding seems to confirm that Catharina de Beer was indeed a descendant of the exiled Amsoeboe and Inabe van Timor (haplogroup N is consistent with Timorese ancestry) - while Ansela van de Caap was not. :: Not only is Anselas haplogroup of L0a consistent with African ancestry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_L0_(mtDNA) but the Wits University HGDDRU lab reported that one of her descendant's results yielded identical matches to:
