Baptism name Jannetje not Johanna !

Van die stamvader Johannes Pretorius se tweede vrou vertel Pieter de Neyn in sy "Lusthof der Huwelijeken,"hoe sy, tesame met enige ander dames uit die omgewing van Kommandeur Jacob van Borghorst, die lewe gered 't van 'n Hottentotkleintjie, toe sy nog 'n jonge meisie was. In die nabyheid van die Goedehoop fort was namelik 'n troep Hottentotte besig om 'n rneid van hul stam te begrawe, wat 'n kleine suigeling nagelaat het; en volgens die barbaarse gewoonte van die ras sou hul die lewende kind saam met sy moeder begrawe. Mej. Victor en die ander vroue het ewenwel deur mooipraat met die Hottentotte verkry, dat hul die lewe van die kleintjie spaar, en sy is met hom na die fort teruggekeer. Dié vrou was die regstreekse voorsaat van die bevryder van die Suid Afrikaanse Republiek.
