Cornelia was born about 1685 and baptised on 29 April 1685 in Meliskerk, (Zeeland – which is a Dutch province). The big island in the south, just before Belgium), Netherlands. It is known that her father Floris Slabbert, together with his wife and children arrived in the Cape in 1699 on the ship Sion. Cornelia died before 1720. It would appear that they had one child, Elsie Sophia Brand who was born in about 1715 and baptised on the 10 March 1714/15.
