- Hugenote nasate ly oor trou aan Boere Coenraad en sy seuns Machiel en Gabriël was die eerste pioniers wat hulle in die Marico-Bosveld, die Waterberg en Soutpansberg gevestig het. Toe die Voortrekkers onder Louis Trichardt in 1837 hulle in die Soutpansberg gevestig het, het die betroubare Gabriël as boodskapper opgetree en ook ruilmiddels, soos ivoor en wildsvelle, vir die Trekkers na Delagoabaai weggebring. Hy en sy broer Doors het ook aan die Hendrik Potgieter-trek allerlei dienste bewys. Hulle het onder meer met die Trekkers saamgereis om die weg na die binneland en Mosambiek te wys en hul kinders het dikwels as veewagters vir die Trekkers opgetree. Vanweë dié diens het die latere Volksraad van die Transvaalse Boererepubliek dit goedgekeur dat die Buyse die reg verkry om vuurwapens te besit. Ook is die gebied aan die westelike punt van die Soutpansberg rondom Mara, wes van Louis Trichardt, "in ewigdurende besit" aan die Buyse gegee. Hul nasate woon steeds daar op die nedersetting Buysdorp.

The Birwa living around the Blouberg hills of the Northern Province recorded the arrival of Coenrad De Buys (junior), Michael De Buys and Doris De Buys, who settled among them as hunter-traders in close contact with the Tsonga and Afro-Portuguese of the East Coast. These De Buys’ of mixed Boer-Birwa origins, helped the first Trekkers in the north - first the scouting party of Scholtz in 1834-35, then the Trichardt and Jan Van Rensburg treks in 1835, and the Soutpansberg colony of Potgieter in 1848.
Doris du Buis's Timeline

Coenraad married or cohabited with several indigenous women, including the niece of the great Matabele king, Mzilikazi. Three of the nine offspring of this latter union, the brothers Michael, Gabriel and Doris, played a decisive role, not only in the establishment of Buysdorp and the early dynamics of the region, but were eventually instrumental in the development of a value system of exclusivity despite a lifetime of intensive involvement with other people in the area. Michael, the second born of his nine recorded offspring, eventually was the first recognised leader of the Soutpansberg Buys people in their present whereabouts. His older brother was Gabriel and his younger brother was Doris.
