Forie-2, may have been the actual person married to Isabella Steijn.

Reasons:

1) Fori-1 (1717) would have been 50 years old at date of marriage and go on to sire the youngest child in 1786 at 69 years of age.

2) Flori-16 (1726) would have been 40 years old at date of marriage and go on to sire the youngest child in 1786 at 59 years of age.

3) This Pieter Fourie (Oct 1735) would have been 31 years old at date of marriage and 50 years old at baptism of the youngest in 1786.

Scenario 2 is more likely than 1, with 3 most likely. Furthermore – …

4) The Fourie witness at baptism of Loúwis Foúri was Susanna Foúri with Jacobus Steijn, indicating the couple Fourie-226 and Steyn-111. Susanna was sister to Fourie-228 but only a niece to either Fori-1 or Flori-16 currently connected to Steijn-1.

5) The Fourie witness at baptism of Hermanus Fouri was Louis Fouri with Maria Botha, indicating the couple Fourie-233 and Botha-224. Once again, Louis Fourie-233 was brother to Forie-2 but only a nephew to either Fori-1 or Flori-16 currently connected to Steijn-1.

Jammer Dirk. Jy het gelees voordat ek die {tik} fout reggestel het .

Sy was getroud met die een wat laaste gebore is :-))) maar geen bronne nou op die oomblik nie

Ronel, die Pieter wat jy sê is jonk oorlede was dan die oudste van die twee Pieters. Hoe is dit dan hy wat met Isabella Steijn getroud is?
posted by Dirk le Roux
Pieter ~ 7/2/1717 is jonk oorlede, maar het nog gelewe toe sy ouers n testament op 2.12.1718 opgestel het Steyn is volgens wat ek weet met die jonger broer getroud op 22/2/1767, maar ek kan nie my dokumentasie kry nie so ek kan niks bewys nie.
Done. Does the argument that birth order listing of Louis Fourij's inventory indicates the younger "Pieter" to have survived make sense?

Then I think we need to remove the Petrus from this profile to prevent future confusion.

The "First 50 Year Project" also list him just as Pieter and him being married to Isabella. http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/g6/p6209.htm

Unfortunately it does not lead to any more primary sources for us to look at.

Esmé, I think the Petrus on this profile is from confusion with the younger brother
posted by Dirk le Roux
Dirk, I do know it has its errors but why is this profile named Petrus if the Baptism record clearly states Pieter.

I also looked at the possibility that Isabella could have married another Fourie as the age gaps do not seem right to me

It might even be possible that Isabella Steijn was married to another Pieter Fori. The youngest child Theunis Theodorus was born 1786, which would have made 1717 Pieter 69 years old or the younger Petrus "Pieter" 60 years old at the time.
