(Lender) Loan On 11 September 1676Evert van Guinea made a declaration that he still had to received the amount of f 150 (at 6% interest) in loan from Joannes Valckenryck and promised to repay it the following year when the return fleet anchored in the harbour. The loan was recorded as paid and cancelled on 28 August 1719 — some four decades after his death.2 
Names in the record, in publications, etc.25 March 1674, the name of Joannes was written in the record as Jan Valckenrijck.
NotesOn 25 March 1674 Joannes Valckenryck and Hendrick Valckenryck These individuals may have been related, perhaps father and son, or brothers, or even cousins.3
Between 20 April 1692 and 23 July 1713 after the disappearance of the Ridderschap, apparently due to pirate activity around Madagascar the Council of Policy despatched officials on board the recently repaired Tamboer to the island to investigate the matter. To assist the officials they also sent the company owned Malagasy slave interpreter Inserwole van Madagascar otherwise known as Ysserwolle and Cornelis - the latter being his baptismal name. From Madagascar the Tamboer proceeded to Batavia from where Inserwole was returned to the Cape.

The first Cornelis van Madagascar appears in the record on 8 March 1677 (1676?) when he is sold by Arijaen van Asperen the captain of the Voorhout to Joannes Valckenryck for Rds 87 in a joint transaction.

As far as can be thus far asertained, there were two adult, company owned, Malagasy slaves baptised Cornelis at the Cape on 20 April 1692 and 20 November 1695 - the Malagasy names were not recorded in either instance. They were Cornelis van Madagascar and Cornelis van Madagascar

The census (monsterrol) of 1695 does not include any company owned slaves named Cornelis.

The last record thus far located mentioning a Cornelis van Madagascar is on 23 July 1713 of two slaves Dianira van der Caap and Cornelis van Madegascar owned by Simon van der Stel who baptise their son Johannes Cornelis van der Caep.4,5
