| Baptisms - Witness | Maria Elisabeth Jooste and Barend Pieterz Blom, Catharina de Beer and Willem Lodewyk Wiederholt witnessed the baptism of Agatha Blom on 20 November 1695  Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), de Caep de Goede Hoop.4 She and Pieter Erasmus witnessed the baptism of Louis de Jager on 13 August 1703 Nederduitsche Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town).7 She potentially witnessed the baptism of Gerrit Knoetsen on 11 July 1706 Nederduitsche Gereformeerde Kerk, Drakenstein, de Caep de Goede Hoop, this witness has not been positively identified. This candidate is offered based on the family's Danish/Holstein connections - the Helms being Danish. My thanks to Mansell Upham for pointing this out.8,9 ![[1706] 11de Julij.

Notes [by Richard Ball on the above web page]:  This child is clearly recorded in the Drakenstein baptismal register as 'Geertruij' but it to me it seems most likely that this was a mistake of the scribe and that the child baptised was, in fact, Gerrit Knoetsen. In the list of the Knoetsen wards of the Weeskamer, 1727, he is listed, with his brothers and sisters, and comes between Catarijn and Maria Coressen. (Cape Archives: MOOC 18/4).](../picicon.gif) She and Pieter Erasmus witnessed the baptism of Jan Hendrikse Oosthuyse on 4 November 1714 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, Drakenstein, de Caep de Goede Hoop.10  She witnessed the baptism of Engela Meyer on 2 May 1717 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, Drakenstein, de Caep de Goede Hoop.11  |
