Baptisms - WitnessMarten de Jeught potentially witnessed the baptism of Martinus Bergh on 2 November 1698 Nederduitsche Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), this witness has not been positively identified. Martin de Jeug[h]t was the skipper of the Driebergen and had visited the Cape several times including enroute to Batavia from 3 to 24 September 1698. So although he was not physically present at this baptism, it is probable that he had agreed to be the witness. No other individual of this name is recorded as visiting the Cape during this period.5
