To be researched: In 1728ca, a daughter was born to Johanna Catharina Campher and given the name Dorothea Esterhuisen. As there were only the three brothers Esterhuizen in SA, the possibility that Dorothea was the illegitimate child of one of them must be researched (baptismal records etc) Ref MOOC 8/23.29, 8/9.23a, 8/6/109a etc) Dorothea was baptised on 22 Dec 1726(impossible? Her mother stated in 1746 that she was 18 y.o.? Could be 1728??) and married Myndert Claasen on 21 Nov 1751 (Ref Hendrik Louw) and was still alive towards end 1800.
