Birth*

François Lavia was born circa 1650.¹

Slave Transactions

On 11 February 1687 Anthoni van Malabar was sold by François Lavia to Jan Stevensz Botma de Oude, for Rds. 22. I have assumed the purchase to be Jan Stevensz Botma de Oude, because in 1688 JSB de jonge was still living with his parents.²
