About Helena du Plessis

Goeie dag,

In die Familia Volume 55-2018 Nommer 3 van SEP 2018. Artikel: Helena DU PLESSIS (neé DU PLOOY) Kinderlose moeder van vele deur Simon DU PLOOY (sjduplooy@mweb.co.za) gee Simon DU PLOOY volledige navorsing aangaande Helena DU PLOOY, b3c9, en wie haar man was. Volgens hom was haar man nie Pieter DU PLESSIS, b1c1d1 of Pieter, b1c5d19 of Pieter, b6c1d1 nie, maar in der waarheid Pieter, b1c5d5e2. Simon dui ook aan dat hul geen kinders gehad het nie.

Beste groete,

Y. DROST, a1b2c2


Helena du Plooy [Testament: KAB MOOC 7/1//100 Verw. 81] x (14.2.1796 Kaapstad) Pieter du Plessis, b1c5d5e2.

Important: Numerous sources are INCORRECT in stating that she was married to Pieter du Plessis b6c1d1 (*1760).


Helena du Plooy could not be the wife of Pieter du Plessis, *19 Mar 1760, son of Jan du Plessis and Johanna Helena Bekker for two reasons:

1. Pieter's 1st wife died in 1788 and he remarried Anna Maria Elizabeth de Klerk on 24 Aug 1794, who died in 1849, they had 14 children.

2. See Helena du Plooy and Pieter du Plessis marriage record: Cape Archives [NG Kerk] Marriages 179 - 14 Febr, 1796 does show a marriage to a Pieter du Plessis: "Pieter du Plessis van Cabo de Goede Hoop, burger aan Stellenbosch, JONGMAN met Helena du Plooy van Cabo voorzet. jonge dogter." This Pieter would have shown wedw, as his first wife had died in 1788.
