BirthOrigin*

Anthoni was from Malabar Coast and perhaps born there circa 1660. Given the price paid for two male slaves, I think they may have been young - perhaps mid-teens.¹

Slave Transactions

Abraham van der Kust Malabar and Anthoni van der Kust Malabar were sold by Jan Andriessen, to Jan Valckenrijck on 21 April 1675, for Rds. 90.^2,3
On 15 June 1680 Anthoni van der Kust Malabar was sold by an unknown person to Hans Melchior Hoffman, for Rds. 30. I assume this to be the same slave purchased by her (now deceased) husband in 1675.⁴
