In die eerste 17 jaar van die Cornelitz-huwelik skenk Maria geboorte aan sewe kinders en van almal buiten een is die doop-inskrywing bewaar. In al ses die inskrywings word Jan Cornelitz as pa van die kinders aangegee. Tuis was alles egter nie pluis nie. In Mei 1689 getuig twee vroue voor die hof Maria het hulle vertel Frederik Botha is eintlik haar tweede kind se pa. Frederik het saam met Maria se man om ’n deel geboer en die saak was waarskynlik ’n poging om Maria in toom te probeer hou. Die vroue het ook gesê Maria het hulle vertel haar eerste kind, Theunis, is eintlik Ferdinandus Appel s’n. Ten tyde van die vermeende owerspel was Ferdinandus Appel ’n ongetroude man van 20. Maar in 1700 spat die vonke rêrig toe Jan om ’n egskeiding vra. Voor die hof het Jan Cornelitz beweer Frederik Botha is die vader van ál Maria se kinders en dat hy swak in sy eie huis behandel is. Maria het nie die beweerde vaderskap van haar kinders ontken nie, maar gesê Jan was “onbeqwaamd” en hy het haar selfs aangemoedig.
