....You mention Anna de Kooningh, born in Bengal to a Dutch father and married as a free slave to a Swedish soldier, Oloff Bergh at the Cape. She was not related to the Koi, what makes her a “phenomenal historical figure”?   Her mother Angela, who had five husbands became the ancestor of the Bassons (today mainly a white surname).   Although Bergh and later Anna,  inherited Great Constantia, they did little about viticulture on the farm.
“It is doubtful, in fact, whether she ever lived at the farm. It is not even mentioned in her will, suggesting that she intended it to be sold”.

There appears to be a dilemma in the fact who can and cannot tell the stories of cultural identity.  These women were ancestors to the settlers and their descendants as well, blood related families who were later separated by the politics of discrimination: apart hate.
Both "white and "coloured" groups are ignored and denied (despised?) their claims to the country by the present “African” government!!!
