--------------------
Hermanus Gerrits 1701-1730. Susanna’s eldest child by Gerrits was married to Anna Maria Brits allegedly on 5.12.1723, according to De Villiers/Pama. No record of this marriage has been found in the appropriate DRC register which has no entries after 19 October for 172319. If 1723 was indeed the date of
the marriage, Hermanus and Maria had had 3 illegitimate daughters before they were married, all legitimised by the ceremony whenever it took place. The issue as given in De ViIliers/Pama are incomplete and incorrect for, according to the 1731 deceased estate inventory of Herrnanus20 they were as follows:
Christina 13 years
Susanna 11 years
Dina 9 years
Gerrit 4 years
Hermanus 2 years
Magdalena 8 months
The Alida appearing in De VilIiers/Pama p.242 had obviously already died. Dina has been omitted entirely and Christina has been placed last instead of first. Her baptism c. 1717-1718, according to the above age, has also not been located in either Cape Town or Stellenbosch. Hermanus died on his farm “Raapenberg gelegen aan ‘t Liesbeeksrivier” in mid-December 1730 aged 29
years. Of the five issue of Gerrits and Susanna only Sophia Elisabeth lived to a good age, namely 82, Hermanus and Maria died at 29 and 33 respectively, Hilletje as a very young woman and Susanna as an infant. Raapenberg went to his widow, Anna Maria Brits who on 12.7.1733 married Claas Jonasz, a full
black, the son of Claas Jonasz d’oude and Dina of Bima. Shortly before the death of Hermanus, his brother-in-law, Rudolf Brits husband of Maria Gerrits, took over the Gerrits farm. Leesbeek thus creating a Brits/Gerrits enclave that stretched from Koornhoop of Hans Jacob Brits Sr. across the Liesbeck to the Black River which included Liesbeek and Raapenberg. Later these farms extended beyond the present Raapenberg railway station. The southern and northern boundaries of this little empire were roughly the present Rondebosch Common and Valkenburg. Generally speaking the transactions in relation to these last two farms, which for a period became fused into one, are extremely complex and many problems arose. In 1773, with their transfer as a whole to
Comelis de Waal from the estate of Anna Maria Brits23, the authorities were faced with finding a satisfactory solution to the distribution of her assets after her death in 17.12.1772 and the proceedings are of considerable genealogical interest. Those involved in the operation were the surviving children of Anna Maria and the heirs of her one deceased daughter and they were named as follows:
1. her daughter Christina Gerrits (cl) then married to Johan Andreas Tomas Kempf
2. her daughter, Dina Gerrits “burgeresse” c4
3. her sons Gerrit Gerrits c5 and Hermanus Gerrits c6
4. her sons by Claas Jonasz II namely Claas Jonasz III and Willem Comelis Jonasz.
5. the children of her deceased daughter Susanna Gerrits married to Johannes Mostert namely:
Jan Christiaan de Goede “getrouwd met Maria Magdalena Mostert” Hermanus Mostert and
Johannes Jacobus Mostert2425.
Although Comelis de Waal, who already owned the adjoining farm Valkenburg became the registered
owner of Liesbeek/Raapenberg in 1773, it seems obvious that Adam Frederick Koeleke, husband of
Sophia Elisabeth Gerrits, b4, either leased or worked the windmill on this property from 1771-1781. To
assist in this operation Koeleke, and after his death in 1776, Sophia Elisabeth herself, hired Niclaas
Christiaan Rode as “Knegt in de wintmolen” as preserved contracts reveal26.
