1. | Matthys GREEFF, b2 was born in 1687 in Stellenbosch, Cape, South Africa; was christened on 25 May 1687 (son of Matthias GREEFF, a1 and Susanna CLAASEN V.D.K); died before 1717 in Cape, South Africa. Notes: GC de Wet, in his commentary on Resolusies van die Politieke Raad (Vol VI p129), writes that "Jan Jurgen Roos van Eisenach, soldaat, arriveer 1710. In 1711 bode van die Laddrost Stellenbosch, 1715 bode van die weeskamer. 1715 Vryburger. Hy was getroud met Sara Coetzee, weduwee van Matthijs Greeff. Hy is in 1722 oorlede."Neither Matthijs nor Roos could possibly have died in 1722 because the taxation and inventory of the deceased estate of Roos himself (dated 21 Dec 1718) mentions that he was married to the widow of Matthijs Greeff. Thus Roos could not have died in 1722. Nor could Matthys, whose widow married Roos. Matthys married Sara COETZEE, b9 on 7 Dec 1710 in Stellenbosch, Cape, South Africa. Sara (daughter of Dirk COETZEE, progenitor and Sara van der SCHULP, daughter of Dirk COETZEE, progenitor and Sara VAN DER SCHULP, b1) was born on 28 Oct 1694 in Stellenbosch, Cape, South Africa; was christened on 29 Oct 1694; died in in Cape, South Africa.
