Source: Geslagregister van Abraham le Clerq - Van Vogelvalleij na Verre Velde by M D de Klerk. De Klerk means writer. "Die voorgeslagte van Abraham de Klerk in Nederland is na verskeie artikels, publikasies en dokumente nagegaan is en verder onder kritiese ondersoek deurgeloop het met sekerheid bepaal." Sy vader was Pieter Abraham de Klerk wat op 4 Oktober 1634 te Serooskerke op die eiland Walcheren gedoop is. Hy was die 5de kind van sy ouers. Die doopgetuies by sy doop was Jan Siix en Mari Jacob. Op 5 Jan. 1670 het hy as 17 jarige sy geloofsbelydenis afgelê. Hy het die smidsberoep beoefen soos sy vader te Weststraat in Serooskerke. Hy is oorlede nadat sy jongste seun Joost op 16 Oktober 1678 gedoop is. Sy vader se ouers was Pieter Abraham de Clercq en Adria-enken (Adriaentje) Joos Onoff.
"Abraham se moeder was Sara Barents Cochet, d.v. Barent Jansz Couche (Cousiee) en Jannetje Joosse van Vooren. Sy is op ca 1652 te Oostburg in Zeeland gebore en in April 1714 oorlede (na die 1713 pokke epidemie aan die Kaap.)"
BUT cf The article "Die herkoms van die de Klerks" by Eben de Klerk (Familia XXVI/1989 no 1 pg 2) includes a paragraph that the parents of Pieter de Clercq were Pieter de Clercq and Clasyna Cordie of Serooskerke. This was disproved in a reaction by CE Hulstaert, "Reacties en aanvullings op Die herkoms van die de Klerks" (Familia XXVI/1989 no 3 pg 63) based on research by HLJ van der Linden, of the Genealogische Werkgroep van Walcheren.
In this article van Hulstaert furnishes conclusive evidence to the contrary, sourced from the actual Church register of Serooskerken.
The author proves that Pieter Abrahams was the son of Abraham de Clercq and Adriaanken Joost Onoff of Serooskerken, and lists the children that were previously ascribed to Pieter de Clerck (sr) and Clasyna Cordie under the real parents. - on http://www.greeff.info/tng01/getperson.php?personID=I26545&tree=PedigrFAGreeffEsagi
