There is a contradiciton in the surviving documentary
records. There is a baptism for Adrianus, son of Arij van Wijk and
Cornelia Helmes in the Stellebosch baptismal register, dated
25 December 1701, and also a reference in the will that Cornelia
Helmes drew up in 1720 with her last husband, which lists her
children thus: Rolof, Aletta, Willem, Sara, Adriaan, Maria, Catarina
and Hester VanWijk. This agrees with with the baptismal evidence.

Unfortunately the only reference to him which gives his age is one
in the will of his father and mother dated 1713, which reads thus:
Roelof aged 18, Aletta 17, Willem 16, Sara 15, Maria 9, Adrianus 8,
Catrina 3, and Hester 6 months, which conflicts with the two other
references, one earlier and one later than this latter one. In this
list of 1713, some of the childrens ages are spot on with their dates
of baptism, but Sara and Adriaans would appear to be wrong. I
have taken the baptism and the later reference as indicating that
there was only one child Adriaan and that he was born c. 1701.

Details of his family from the Deceased Estate Accounts of Willem
van Wijk d'oude, 1771-72 and those of Sara Fourie also dated 1771-72.

Details of this family from the Deceased Estate Accounts
of Willem van Wijk d'oude, 1771-72 and her own Estate Accounts
of 1744.

There is no baptism extant for her. The only indication of when
she was born are the two lists of her children drawn up by
Cornelia Helmes in her wills of 1713 and 1720. In the earlier the
age of Maria is given as 9, which would suggest she was born
around 1704 which is what I have used here. On this list, however,
the ages of the sister listed before her and the brother after,
would seem to be wrong (although those of the other children
agree with their dates of baptism) we can only hope that her
age was listed correctly.

Note

By Richard Ball http://www.ballfamilyrecords.co.uk/kfp/I172.html

In his will, dated 1713, he is described as having been born in
Amsterdam and being 45 years old. In the Nieuwe Kerk in
Amsterdam is recorded the baptism of 'Adrian, son of Roelof
Adriaensz van Wijk and Trijntje Jans, 18th January 1668.
(Amsterdam information kindly supplied by Bob Kernkamp).

Since Roelof van Wijk and Trijntje Jans also lived at the Cape,
I think we can safely assume that this baptism is his.

On 21st September 1688 he was granted permission to move from the
Cape to Drakenstein (1 STB 15/2).

Also in his will he is desribed as 'sick, confined to bed'. One
can speculate that in this year of Smallpox plague that this is
what he was suffering from - certainly he died in the same year.
