This may be the same person Leij-19. Cape Melting pot mentions Cornelia Leij as Jan Nyhoff's Spouse.
This is their marriage https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSFQ-SR2W?i=25&cat=993508
This is Barend Hendriks baptism showing Cornelia Ley as mother https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:VRLS-MYW
I believe this is her husband as mentioned in Cape Melting Pot Nijhoff-20
I was at the C.T. archives on 13th but just not enough time... & found Neuhoff only on those cards. Thank you so much.! I will adjust. !
Sorry was on the phone. Yes I also added Date estimation banner as well.
Changed her birth date to about 43 yeas before her death date as she could not have been born 1781 Died ten years later with 5 children of whom the eldest was 23 years of age :)
