↑ See the bio of Vosloo-42: "By die doop van Kruysman se oudste kind, Christina (Crùysman-1), op 28 Junie 1705 in die Paarl, word die moeder net as Martha aangedui. Dit is deur ander navorsers aanvaar dat hierdie Martha dieselfde persoon as Maria Vosloo is. Dit is natuurlik nie ’n uitgemaakte saak dat hierdie Martha wel Maria Vosloo was nie. As Martha en Maria Vosloo wel dieselfde persoon is, is die doopseel van Christina die enigste dokument waarvan ons kennis dra waar na haar as Martha verwys word."
