Probate record:

There is some debate as to whether this DN actually refers to this person. 1. The age on this DN is 96 years and 10months - suggesting a birth date of c. 1745
2. Geesjie was Baptised Dec 17 1780 - probably after her mother was freed. Her parents married in 1780

See http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/RemarkableWriting/CapeMeltingPot-FFY.pdf p59; p 81 - Oltman and Dorothea were married 1780

3. See the Baptism entry added to the profile - the children were all baptised on the same date.
4. Oltman only arrived in South Africa in 1754 - so his child could not have been born in 1745
5. although not stated she will have been between 18 and 15 years old looking at her father's inventory in 1790 - birthdate therefore around 1773/5. 6. The big plus is that her son Johan Hendrik Wulff is named on the DN. Conclusion - either there are some very bad errors on the DN (most likely), or it is not the same person.
