Okker Cornelisz: Olivier 1
died circa 1705 2
Notes:
For his affair with Maria Jans Visser, wife of Willem Willemsz van
Devenster, see my notes. While the Council of Policy was dealing
with the problem of the husband and wife, sometime in the middle
of 1676, Ocker Cornelisz was confined on Robben Island, presumably
being released after the departure of the couple to Batavia during
September 1676.

It was ordered by the Council of policy (C9, 18 August 1676) that on
his return from Robben Island, Ocker Cornelisse was to be obliged to
support properly the two children he had fathered in his adultery with
the wife of Willem Willemsz, and in 1677 we find, in the muster roll of
that year, Hendrik and Ocker Corneliss with two children, unnamed,
but presumably these two.

His inventory of 1705 states that he left 12 children,
majors and minors, but does not name them.
