Notes about Maria "van de kust COROMANDEL" van Negapatham

Geertjen Gerrits was vermoor {Hof verwysing: AR VOC 4030 (14 Maart 1692) fol 328.} Maria/Marie van Negapatnam was 'n slavin van Geertjen en Jan Coenraad Visser. 'n Vrydag aand in Maart 1692 het Geertjen en Maria in die kombuis gewerk, toe die slaaf Claas van Mallebar deur die kombuis geloop het om hout te gaan kap, Geertjen het met hom geraas omdat hy nie betyds gereed gekry het vir haar om te bak nie. Geertjen het ook nie Claas se verskoning aanvaar dat hy vir die koeie gaan soek het in die berge nie. Claas sê toe: "Jou oud hond, Jij moogste den selvs gaan haalen" - Geertjen probeer toe om Claas te slaan met 'n stuk hout, maar Claas vat die byl in slaan die byl reg in haar nek, dit was noodlotig en haar kop was amper afgekap. Hierdie het plaas gevind voor Maria van Negapatnam (Robert Shell Children of Bondag p 219). Maria hardloop toe na Jag Visser en skreeu: "Baas, Baas! Moeder is dood! Moeder is dood!". Shell verduidelik dat aan die Kaap was die huisvrou beskou as beide nonna enmoeder en die baas as vader. In hierdie geval kon Geertjen wel Maria se de facto skoonmoeder gewees het want die seun Coenraad Visser het met haar gehad.

Coenraad het 'n paar kinders met die slavin Maria van Negapatnam ook bekend as Maria van Bengale gehad. Maria was gebore c1669, en sy word gedoop as 'n volwassene c 1722 te Stellenbosch toe sy 53 jaar oud was.

Jan Coenraad Visser doop die volgende kinders, die moeder was Maria van NEGAPATNAM / Maria van Bengale /van de Cust Coromandel:
