  5. [S21] Date estimated by compiler, Delia Robertson and, unless there is corroborating information, should not be considered as anything more than a guide - based on baptism of younger sibling. Also Carel seems to have had only one child in 1721 after his marriage, and given the prolific reproductive tendencies in this family, it is a possibility that he died soon thereafter.
