• Notes

  According to research done by the writer (http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Atlantis/4364/f5.htm), Nicolaas wife's grandmother was called Latea van die Kaap. This supports his daughter-in-law (writer's grandmother, who mentioned to the writer) who was told that the Bruyns family had a trace of mix blood. There must have been some miscegenation back earlier. Latea was a very pretty girl since in a rhyme it refers to this. "Dan volgt Latea nimmer schuins De Deelgenoot van Christian Bruins" Later Latea was baptised in Stellenbosch as an adult in 1843 and she took on the name Elizabeth Gertyda Markunes.
