Marie le Febre 1
born circa 1651, Marcq, near Calais 2
died circa April 1701, (assumed from date of inventory) 3
 | | Notes: | The details of her parents and her Prevot children come from the
Church registers of the Protestant Church at Guines, near Calais,
as transcribed by W. Minet and W.C. Walter, 1891, and recorded in
the book by C. G. Botha: The French Refugees at the Cape, 1919,
and the article by M. Boucher, The Cape Huguenots from the
Calaisis, in Familia vol.12 no.1, 1975, p.6-17.
In a list of April 1690 she is listed as the wife of Henrik Eekhoff,
with four children. G.M.Theal, Chronicles of Cape Commanders,
Cape Town, W.A.Richards & Son, Castle Street, 1886m, page 286.
In the Muster Rolls of 1692, as the wife of Louis de Pieromme,
still with four children, in 1693 the couple is still listed with four
children. Muster Rolls, VC39, vol 1, 1692, p.121, 1693, p.129
In the statement of accounts drawn up after the death of her third
husband, Louis de Peronne, and dated 26 January 1697, she is said
to have six children, three by her first husband Charles Pruvo, one
by her second husband Hendrik Eekhof, and two by her third. Their
names are not given.
The inventory of goods drawn up after her death in 1701 lists the
names of all six surviving children: Abraham Pruvo, Elizabeth Pruvo,
Anna Pruvo, Matthijs Hendrik Eeckhout, Bernardus de Peronne and
Maria de Peronne. |

Notes: She is not mentioned as one of the three

Louis de Peronne, Maria le Febre's third husband, so
she had presumably died before that date.

Notes: In the Muster Rolls of 1692, the year of her marriage to
Louis de Peronne, Maria le Febre is listed along with Louis de Pieromme
and four children. We know that four of her children born prior to that marriage
survived to adulthood so that I have assumed that when, in 1693 the couple is
still listed with four children, these are still her four children from previous
marriages, three Prevots and one Eekhof (see the notes with Marie Le Febre).
In the 1695 muster roll (no date, but likely taken at the end of the year) this
couple is listed with five children, a child presumably having been born to the
couple since 1693. The 26 January 1697.statement of accounts drawn up after
the death of Louis de Peronne, says that there were then two children of the
marriage. I have assumed therefore that one child was born before the muster
roll of 1695, say in 1694 or 1695, and that the second child was born most
probably during 1696. The children are not named.
Their names are given in the inventory of goods drawn up after Marie le Febre's
death in 1701 as: Abraham Pruvo, Elizabeth Pruvo, Anna Pruvo, Matthijs Hendrik
Eeckhout, Bernardus de Peronne and Maria de Peronne.
I have combined thes two pieces of information, taken the order of children as
given in that document and assumed that it was Bernardus who was born first
nd Maria second, but this is only an assumption.
