Susanna Bosman 1 born 1712, Cape of Good Hope 2 baptized 17 January 1712, Stellenbosch 3 died 19 July 1755 4 will dated 9 July 1755 Notes: Her children are given as listed in her will made in May, 1746, when, recently widowed, she was confined to bed by sickness. In this same will she appoints her brother-in-law, Daniel de Vries, to run the bakery for the benefit of her children if the Executors should see fit. In her will of 1755 she mentioned as her two youngest children, only Hendrik and Elisabeth, mentioning that they should not be made to live with anyone other than the testatrices ownn parents or family. 1755, the year of her death, was a year of small-pox epidemic. It seems likely that that is what she died from. Described as on her sick bed when the will was drawn up, she died ten days later. In his will of 1785 her brother, Abraham Bosman, left a portion of his estate to be divided among the children of Susanna and Isaak but their two sons, Abraham and Hendrik, are excluded 'for special reasons'.
