David le Fevre died before 1673 Elisabeth le Bleu died 1678

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.

children of Marie le Febre and Charles Prevot David Prevot 1675-1685 born 10 March 1675, Marcq, near Calais 7 died 9 February 1685, Marcq, near Calais 8 Marie Prevot born 1678 born 10 February 1678, Lower Marcq, near Calais 9 baptized 17 February 1678, Calais 10 Notes: She is not mentioned as one of the three surviving children of Charles Prevot in the Inventory drawn up on 26th January 1697, after the death of Louis de Peronne, Maria le Febre's third husband, so she had presumably died before that date. Abraham Prevot born 1679 born 24 May 1679, Marcq, near Calais 11 Anne Prevot 1681-before 1740 born 18 February 1681, Marcq, near Calais died before 10 October 1740, (date of inventory)  married circa June 1696 Schalk Willemsz van der Merwe 12 1673-before 1740 of from 1692 the farm De Hoop, Drakenstein later the farm Wittenberg, Drakenstein Elisabeth Prevot born 1683 born 31 October 1683, Les Attaques, south east of Calais 13 Charles Prevot born 1688 born May 1688 baptized 16 May 1688, aboard the vessel Scheldt, in Table Bay 14 Notes: He is not mentioned as one of the three surviving children of Charles Prevot in the Inventory drawn up on 26th January 1697, after the death of Louis de Peronne, Maria le Febre's third husband, so he had presumably died before that date. children of Marie le Febre and Hendrik Eekhoff Matthijs Hendrik Eekhof died before 1722 died before April 1722, (date of his wife's next marriage)  married 22 October 1719 Drakenstein Elisabeth Vivier 17 1698-before 1730 of De Vaderlandse Rietklooff, Piquetberg children of Marie le Febre and Louis de Peronne Bernadus de Peronne 20 born 1695 born 1695, (or earlier - assumed - see note above) 21 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. Maria Magdalena de Peronne born circa 1696 born circa 1696, (assumed - see note to Bernardus above)  married 25 December 1712 Stellenbosch Jacob Mostert 22 died circa 1723 farmer of on the Zoute Revier, behind the blauweberg
