Biography

Suffix

a1
During his lifespan no official records could be found, for Hendrik Corneliszoon, where the last name Olivier was used. The last name Olivier first appeared, after his death, in 1702 : We find the referral in the Muster Roll of 1702 page 14 “de Wede Hendrik Olivier 9 k’’
Henceforth the family was known as Olivier : The documentation, found after 1702, frequented the use of Olivier: [1]
Gedurende Hendrik Cornilizoon se leeftyd, kon geen dokumentasie gevind word, waar na hom verwys word as Olivier nie. Die van Olivier kom die eerste keer, na sy dood, voor in die Monsterrol van 1702 . Ons vind die verwysing op bladsy 14 “de Wede Hendrik Olivier 9 k’’
Hierna het die familie bekend gestaan as Olivier : Die doukumentasie, wat gevind word na 1702, gebruik Olivier meer gereeld. [1]

Hendrik married Beatrice Gijsbertz,Gysbertha VERWEY Beatrice Verweij * c. 1656 from Woerden in Netherland, on the 30.5.1677 in the Dutch Reformed church, Cape of Good Hope, almost 10 years after his arrival [15]
Hendrik and his wife had 09 children (10 according to the inventory)[3] and during his life and time he enjoyed life hunting and farming
One of the hunting expeditions was describe by D Sleigh in "Eilande" "Acording to Pieter Denysens statement, Gerrit Cloete, Hendriken and Ockert Olivier (brothers) was hinderd by the Ngonnemoa tribe when they went out hunting Hippopotamus, on the banks of the "Bergriver".[I will use my own words because of the language use in the statement]Ronel Olivier When they arrived at the hunting-ground, after the first shot, they were surrounded by about forty to fifty assegaibearers (spearmen). Gys Verwy's dog was killed with an assegai with the words "look here" Ngonnemoa then spoke in Dutch and said: "Dutchman. One word "Kalem" Apparantly that means Be Quiet or we will cut your throat. After that the "lunsrieme" on the wagan was cut to pieces and the hunting party was told "Now you can walk home" [16]
Hendrik Olivier died before 1701-06-30 in Cape of Good Hope [17]
Although Hendrik Olivier left his widow with "thien onmondige kinderen" (According to the Inventory) (up to date we could only find 9) [3] all minor's, his wife was successful in farming the land and providing for her and her children with the help of 5 slaves. [17]
In the early period, Wealthy freehold farmers were largely responsible for opening up the frontier. Beatrix Verweij, a widow and the owner of two freehold farms near Cape Town, was one of the first to apply for such a grazing permit [in de duine agter de grawwe heuvels]" [18]

After Hendriks death the farm "Clara Anna Fontein", was given to Beatrix Verwei.[20]

Criminal Sentence

Date: 1673
Criminal Sentence : The stealing and slaughtering of two Cows
Ref No. CJ 780:147  : Trijntie Theunissen Van Harmelen :: Hendrick Cornelissen van Ouderkerk :: Jan Teunissen van Houten - Sentence 1673 - SARecords
In 1673 Hendrik was working for his future Mother in-law. Trijntie Theunissen Van Harmelen, aka Catharina T. (Ganzevanger) Verwey widow of Gysbert Verwey. Some stray cattle was found among the widows herd and was slaughtered Thus leading to the conviction :
Court of Justice, Criminal Sentences 1652-1697, CJ 780 ref. 147 pp. 574-676, Trijntie Theunissen van Harmelen - Hendrick Cornelissen van Ouderkerck - Jan Theunissen van Houten. ""Sentences of Trijntie Theunissen of Harmelen, and her two servants (kneghts) Hendrik Cornelis of Ouderkerck and Jan Theunissen of Houten, for (their part in) the stealing and slaughtering of two cows in 1673. The document starts off with an introduction of the protagonists and a summary of the crime(s) they were found guilty of, followed by the usual statement that crime cannot be tolerated in a law-abiding society and that an example should be set, and finally the actual sentence and when executed.It is alleged that on the 26th of August 1673 Trijntje ordered two of her servants, to slaughter and salt down two cows which belonged to some Hottentots. The cows had presumably been taken home by mistake with the rest of the herd after a days grazing by another servant Jan Mahu. Their mistress was not home that evening, so he informed the other servants, Hendrick and Jan. The following day the two strange cows accompanied the herd to graze in the fields and were once more taken home with the rest of the herd in the evening, and subsequently killed, skinned, cut into pieces and salted down by Hendrick Cornelissen and Jan Theunissen. As rumours spread in the following days, Trijntje instructed Hendrick Cornelissen to bury one of the cow hides in the garden in an attempt to cover up the deed. The sentence dictates the Trijntje was to be tied to a pole with a cow hide above her head and a rope (noose) around her neck, and to be severely scourged, branded and subsequently be confined on Robben Island for a period of twelve years, as well as the confiscation of all her goods and property. Hendrick Cornelissen and Jan Theunissen were to receive similar entences, but instead of twelve years they were to serve six years in chains on public-works. The sentences were passed on 22 and executed on 23 September 1673. Through the intervention of some respectable woman and Trijntje's own children, she and one of her servants were spared the branding [1.]
Trijntje was also known as Catharina Theunis Gansevanger, the widow of Gijsbert Dircksz Verweij. Her loyal servant Hendrick Cornelissen, also known as Hendrick Cornelisz Olivier, later became her son-in-law when he married her daughter, Beatrix Gijsberts Verweij on 30 May 1677. From contemporary sources such as the Cape Town baptism and marriage registers, and the lists of free men, it is evident that Trijntje Theunis and Hendrick Cornelisz did not serve the full terms of their sentences. In fact Trijntje, who had 4 minor children at that time, was recorded on the list of free men (and woman) by 1674, and Hendrick, together with his brother Ocker Cornelisz, by 1677.[22]
Hy word 'n burger in 1677.[4]

  25. Source "Cornely Keller" Die ouderdom by indienstreding skat jy te laag in. Onthou die minimale leeftyd vir soldate en matrose was 18 jaar en maksimaal 40 jaar. By soldate was die gemiddelde ouderdom 22 jaar by eerste aanmonstering, en by matrose self hoër. Dit wil natuurlik nie sê dat die broers nie agtien kon gewees het nie, maar ek skat die kans bie klein in dat hulle so jong was. As hulle geen tweelinge was nie, moes tenminste één 19 of ouer gewees het. Verder, indien ons sommige bronne moet glo dat Hendrik al direk na aankoms vryburger geword het, dan lyk dit my 'n bietjie jong, tensy hy al aangekom het met 'n 'meerderjarigheidsverklaring' (Venia Aetatis) van die Hof van Holland, of as hy by aankoms een aangevra het by die politieke raad. Miskien is daar iets oor terug te vind in die argief in Kaapstad. Groet, Corney Keller. Received via e-mail by Ronel Olivier March 17, 2015.

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 Hendrik:
