# The parents of Maria Marais It seems that she was one of the children of Charles Marais and Anne de Ruel. At the opgaaf of 1719 Anne de Ruel lists 4 sons and 3 daughters living with her. We have the batpism of only 1 daughter, Deborah. The family lived in the Drakenstein area, where the early church registers had disappeared by the early 1720s (see my notes here). Judging from the baptismal witness of her children this Maria Marais would appear to have been one of those 3 daughgters.
