Dear Ilse

I am looking for information on the "Nesserak", which docked in Table Bay, Cape in 1713


I am looking for the German ancestors of :

Johannes Augustus Dreyer born on 1 January 1668. In Grube, Holstein, Germany (Died 6 April 1759 in the Cape)
Arrived in the Cape in 1713 as a midshipman on the vessel "Nesserak" under the name of Isaac Dalgue.
I would appreciate any help on ship's lists.
Regards

Ian Dreyer

was also Saldanha Bay (160km from Cape Town)
