Biography

Huibrecht Jacoba was born about 1853.[1]

Marriage

Second Marriage: 9 September 1879[2]

Event place: Verterstad[2]
Groom: Johannes Christiaan Lessing[2]
Bride: Huibrecht Jacoba Coetsee nee Kruger - widow[2]

Note

The Burgersdorp Baptism register records that Levina Catharina Willemina Kruger was baptised there on 11 Apr 1869, born 2 Feb 1869. Parents Johannes Abraham Kruger and Huibrecht Jacoba Johanna Coetsee. On the marriage certificate shown here the bride, the widow of Kruger (NOT born Kruger), signs as Coetsee. Heese (p.500) shows f1 Johannes Abraham Kruger marrying Huibrecht Jacoba Johanna Coetsee. When she married Lessing he was 44 and she was 26. [3]

Another profile, now merged here, gave her the maiden name of Coetsee. The note above suggests that her prior husband was surnamed Coetsee. This is the same surname as that of her mother.

I think there is no other deduction to be made that her LNAB must have been Coetzee and her names only Huibrecht Jacoba.

On her marriage certificate when she married Kruger on 23 Feb 1868, she was indicated as Huibrecht Jacoba Coetzee - "jongedochter" and 15 years old, therefore born approximately 1852/3. On her profile her date of birth is given as 1 Nov 1852. Huybrecht Jacoba Coetzee was born on 1 Nov 1852 and baptised on 13 Mar 1853 at Burgersdorp - "South Africa, Dutch Reformed Church Registers (Cape Town Archives), 1660-1970 ," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSFQ-Q2YB?cc=1478678 : 30 April 2022), > image 1 of 1; State Archives, Cape Province. Also on her death certificate it is indicated that she was born as Coetzee and the parents' names correspond with the names of the parents at the baptism.
