Hermann Boerhaave is one of the most famous Dutch botanists known to us today. He was a devout Calvinist. I would like to know about his daughter, Maria Joanna Boerhaave (but I believe she changed her last name when she married).

  1. I too could find NOTHING on her.  I only attached the first few sites I visited.  There were MANY more.  They all were identical with no details.  Sorry.

    On September 14, 1710, Boerhaave married Maria Drolenvaux, the daughter of the rich merchant, Alderman Abraham Drolenvaux. They had four children, of whom one daughter, Maria Joanna, lived to adulthood.


  2. I found this.

    Johanna Maria Boerhaave, born. Leiden 19 march.

    baptized in the Hooglandse Kerk (Leiden) 20 march 1712,

    died. 28 Sept. 1791,  Leiden

    she was the only one of boerhaave's 4 children who outlived her father.
