Francois du Toit 1 of Kleinbosch, Drakenstein 2 Heemraad born Rijssel, Flanders 3 died before December 1731, (based on will filing date) 4 Notes: He came from Flanders and arrived at the Cape in 1686, on board the Dutch East India Ship 'De Vrijheid' which, in that year, left Wielengen on the 9th March 1686 bound for Batavia, calling at the Cape between 23rd June 1686 and 3rd July 1686. (Sources: Kopie-rol van gekwalificeerde civiele en militaire VOC- dienaren in Kaap der Goede Hoop. 1725. Transcribed from one of the 42 books in this call group at the Rijksarchief in the Hague by: Dr Lesley A. Robertson CBiol FIBiol. De VOC Site. Where I have been unable to find other evidence, I have listed the children in the order established by Juna Malherbe (see 1. below). Both in their will of 1715 and that of 1730, Francois and Susanne make special provision for their youngest son, Steven or Stephanus. In the 1715 will he is left 800 gulden over and above what would be his share. In 1723 he is left the same plus the farmhouse called 'de Lemite Rivier', the reason for this is his disablitiy (gebrekkelijkheijt). In 1730 they issued a codicil changing their executors with no mention of the son Stephanus. 1.
