5 August 1674, the name of Cornelia was written in the record as Cornelia Tuws.
NotesJacob Theunisz and Mayken Hendriks van den Berg were according to the early Cape records from Cooltiensplaet, which also appears as Cooltjens Plaet but today there is so such place in the Netherlands. However, there is a placed named Ooltgensplaat which was a separate municipality until 1966 when it became part of Oostflakkee, which also included Den Bommel. In 2013 Oostflakkee was one of the municipalities which amalgamated to become Goeree-Oostflakkee. This couple's daughter, Cornelia Theunisz, was described in the record as from Bommel, a strong indicator that modern day Ooltgensplaat is in fact Cooltiensplaet/Cooltjens Plaet.6,7
