DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Andreas by comparing test results with other carriers of his Y-chromosome or his mother's mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known yDNA or mtDNA test-takers in his direct paternal or maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Andreas:
The project profile [email address removed] has been added to the trusted list of this progenitor profile [Privacy Tab] and then also activated as active manager (though this progenitor profile still has to be validated with a [transcription of a] baptism [image]), and [has been / will be] Project Profile Protected). All remaining active managers have been moved to the trusted list. Appreciatively thanks, Philip (project research coordinator)
There is evidence that Andries Oels(en was probably sentenced for a long term in about March 1668 after he arrived on the Huis te Velsen. He appears twice in the " Muster Rolls of officers and men at the Cape 1656-1699" in the collection VC 39 volume 2. VC 39 2, "Rolle van de Compagniens dienaaren aan de Cabo de Boa Esperance bescheijden adij den 14 Maart 1670," page 127 - Andries Oels; Christiaenstadt; Bandieten aen t fort VC 39 2, "'a:o 1672," page 154 - Andries Oelsen; ; In de Hout baij In the first case his place of origin is given. He is a convict at the fort. In the second case no place of origin is given and he is at Houtbaai, possibly as convict labour for the woodcutters.
Oelofse-6 and Oelofsz-2 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate. LNAB still needs to be sourced though both versions are not Norwegian. This will happen at a later date - we also have to merge the spouses and the children. I'll do the final integration of the bio after the merge, thanks!
