Josua (Jubar) Joubert is the descendant of a Huguenot emigrant.
Josua Jubar was born about 1689 in Cabo de Goede Hoop, son of Pierre Jaubert (~1665–1732) and Isabeau Richarde (1667–1740).
Josua (35) married Susanna Garde (21) (born before July 29, 1703 in de Caep de Goede Hoop; daughter of Jean Garde and Suzanne (Taillefert) Naude) on July 5, 1725 in Drakenstein, de Caep de Goede Hoop.
Josua died about 1738 in Welvanpas, Wagenmakersvallei, Caep de Goede Hoop, aged about 48.
Research Notes
Baptism record - I am quite certain that the Baptism record relates to this person, even though the spelling of the parents' surnames are a bit different to what's listed on this profile. In addition the baptism date is quite a bit later than the date of birth listed above (about 1689), but all sources I've checked including "The First Fifty Years Project"[1]
Old Cape Families - "Oude Kaapsche Familien"[2] only refer to one child named "Josua"/"Josue"[3]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Josua by comparing test results with other carriers of his ancestors' Y-chromosome or mitochondrial DNA.
Y-chromosome DNA test-takers in his direct paternal line on WikiTree:
On an inventory taken on 16 October 1740 of his mother's belongings, it states that his (surviving) children are:
- Pieter (might also be Pierre, as his Josua's father was "Pierre" but in almost all of the Orphan Chamber documentation he is referred to as "Pieter"), Jan and Susanna Jubert
- Pieter (might also be Pierre, as his Josua's father was "Pierre" but in almost all of the Orphan Chamber documentation he is referred to as "Pieter"), Jan and Susanna Jubert
