↑ Another source [M. Upham, "Claas van Malabar" in N. Claassen, & G.H. Claassen, Die Claas(s)en afstammelinge in Suid-Afrika, Centurion, Outeurs, 2001.] wrongly gives the marriage date to Adriaentje van Catrijn as July 9, 1683 [according to the same source he only arrived in the Cape in 1686], but does provide the date of baptisms [birth dates perhaps?] for both children: Hendrik Sep 24, 1702 and Gerrit Apr 10, 1705.
