our history

The Past en the Present: Jakarta 1998

August 1998 the Donald Pesch family went on a trip to Indonesia to show the young generation their roots. In the archives of the museum Sejarah (Jakarta) we found the portraits of all the Vice Roys in the record office. Pity that there was not enough light in the building to make a photograph. Tidah apa, apa (No problem) and we were allowed to take the 223 years old painting outside. This is only possible in Indonesia!

In the courtyard another surprise was waiting for us. To our great delight we saw in the center of the courtyard a sculpture with the arms of Jeremias van Riemsdijk. No doubt about it. See for yourself!

On the old Dutch graveyard Tanah Abang now called Taman Prasasti you can still find the tombstones of the colonial times. It is quite an interesting place for Dutch people to visit. Here we found the now 226 year old tombstone of Jeremias van Riemsdijk. On the bottom of the stone you see number 22 of his cellar. With the big iron ring one could lift the stone to get entrance to the cellar. In the 18th century a temple-like building was built over this stone on the 'Hollandse begraafplaats'. It now lays in the open air, so erosion can do its devastating work. What a pity!

Jakarta, Taman Prasasti, August 1998. In the centre of the picture the three male descendants of Jeremias van Riemsdijk, Joeri, Raul and Donald.

At the border of the Ciliwung river, deep in the south of Jakarta, we found the old Van Riemsdijk family graveyard that once was part of the estate Tanjung Timur (Tandjoeng Oost or Groeneveld). It is now an Islamic burial place, but four graves of the family Van Riemsdijk were still in good condition (1996). In 1998 however we found one gravestone broken. The inscriptions of two stones were beautifully kept. In the Genealogy we can read on page 173 the following:

What is written here above is what we found engraved in the two stones (see picture below). Nearly 128 years after Dina van Riemsdijk and Tjalling Ament were laid to rest here, we found their graves in perfect condition.

August 1998. The new generation is confronted with their past.

His gravestone and that of his wife, daughter Dina and her husband Tjalling Ament are still intact on the old family graveyard deep in the south of Jakarta near the ruin of the estate Groeneveld.

Januari 1, 2003, 00.10 hour Raul announced, to our great surprise, his marriage to Hilde on August 23, 2003. The ceremony will be in the Naarden townhall and 'Grote Kerk' opposite the townhall. Reception will be in the Schubertlaan 10, dinner at Fagel restaurant in the Vesting and the party afterwards will be held in 'Het Arsenaal'.
Best men are Henk Jan Birkhoff and Maarten van Nieuwstadt, not Joeri, for he is already Rauls bestman as long as he lives.

The surprise came shortly after midnight.

Martijn Derksen and Joeri practising for Agust 23, 2003!

And August 23, 2003 was a glorious day, the sun was shining and everybody was happy!

Background information and dates (The names of the lineal descendants, the DNA-line, is printed in red as well as the year of birth and death)

Batavia, October 1, 1933
Jhr. Mr. P.R. Feith, a lawyer/solicitor at the High Court of Dutch East India, formerly mayor of Batavia and Mr. P.C. Bloys van Treslong Prins, land archivist and lawyer in Batavia completed the genealogy of the famous landlord of the Campea estates, Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk and his descendants. We learn from this genealogy that Willem Vincent was the son of Jeremias van Riemsdijk, who was Governor General or Vice Roy of the Dutch East Indies from December 28, 1775 till his death on October 3, 1777. The genealogy starts the history of the family van Riemsdijk with the Vice Roy’s parents.

The Vice Roy’s father was named Scipio van Riemsdijk, born December 27, 1671, died in Utrecht on September 8, 1737. He was a vicar in Bunnik (near Utrecht) and was married to Johanna Bogaert, born in Utrecht, February 1680, died November 15, 1761. Their son, Jeremias van Riemsdijk (born Utrecht October 18, 1712, died in Batavia, October 3, 1777), departed February 25, 1735 from Holland to Batavia in the service of the VOC with the ship named ‘Troostwijk’. He arrived there pennyless September 24, 1735.

The harbour of Batavia about 1760, twenty five years after the arrival of Jeremias.

The crown on his career was the moment when he was chosen with unanimous votes to Vice Roy of the Dutch East Indies in December 18, 1775. November 23, 1772 the value of his possessions was 240.000 Rijksdaalders (nowadays amount to millions of dollars, see page 3 from the genealogy). Jeremias married five times. All his wives were Dutch from origin. He produced a total of 16 children. Only four children reached the aged of 21! His fourth wife was Adriana Louisa Helvetius (born Batavia, January 19, 1736, died November 23, 1772), They married May 2, 1751. The bride was 15 years old!

Jeremias van Riemsdijk, the Vice Roy or in dutch 'Gouverneur-Generaal'. According to what we see on the painting, he suffered from a stroke. We found the painting in the archives of the museum Sejarah in Jakarta in the record-office.

1740 the innercourt of 'Het Kasteel' where Jeremias held residence from 1775 - 1777

Inside 'Het Kasteel', the conference room. The woodcarved screen (front right) opposite the entrancedoor indicates that there is a meeting. The screen is now on exhibition in the museum Sejarah, in Dutch colonial times the townhall (het stadhuis).

From this table and these chairs Indonesia was ruled nearly 200 years. The table and the chairs are now in the museum Sejarah (Jakarta).

Before Jeremias was Vice Roy he lived alongside the 'Tijgersgracht'. This canal nowadays filled-up and a busy traffic-artery called Jalan Pos Kota. On this picture his carriage arrives home, a servant is waiting with a big parasol to give the master shade.

The townhall (now called Museum Sejarah) stands in the middle. At the left side of this picture you see the "Tijgersgracht' where Jeremias lived with his family.

We now continue the genealogy with the second child of the marriage of Jeremias and Adriana Helvetius who was called Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk, born in Batavia, November 23, 1752, died February 15, 1818. He was buried on graveyard Tanah Abang in cellar 22.

Willem Vincent was owner of the ships ‘Oost Indiën’, ‘De Goede Trouw’ and ‘Oost en West’ (1810) He also was the famous landlord of Tanah Abang. A part of Tanah Abang was later the public churchyard in Batavia. (Nowadays a small part of Tanah Abang is still the old Dutch cemetery, called ‘Taman Prasasti’) He possessed also Campea, Cibunbulan, Cibinong, Cimanggis, Papisangan, Tanjung Timur and Sadeng, all these estates situated near Bogor. Together these estates were far bigger than the province of Utrecht in the Netherlands. The amount of inhabitants on the estate were more than 100 000 persons, most of them obstinate Javanese natives. They frequently rebelled against the Dutch occupation. Reason for Government intervention to restore the peace.

Page 3 of the genealogy.

Willem Vincent Helvetius married July 4, 1773 in Batavia with Catharina Margaretha Craan. His father Jeremias was a rich man (see picture above). Willem Vincent Helvetius became even richer. He was the richest man in Batavia. His income in 1777 was 453.000 Rijksdaalders, nowadays amount to millions of dollars), he lived like a Royal. His wife Catharina died August 9, 1792, two months after giving birth to a dead child.

In stead of having a new wife he preferred to have several mistresses. Most of them were good looking Indonesian non Christian women. Among the mistresses of Willem Vincent Helvetius was a non-Christian woman from Mandhar (Sulawesi). She was called by the name ‘Dekkan van Mandhar’, which means in Dutch ‘from the side of Mandhar’. Her real name we will never know. January 30, 1815 she gave in Batavia birth to a second son Wilhelmus Diederik Benjamins alias Willem Frederik. He is considered to be the youngest son of Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk. He died in Bogor December 19, 1858. Wilhelmus Diederik Benjamins was landowner at Grogol, near Batavia. By government permission (September 25, 1836) he was allowed to carry the family name Benjamins.

He married (October 22, 1836) Frederica Wilhelmina Gertruida Kemper, born in Batavia October 1, 1821, died Batavia June 27, 1893. They had nine children. After 19 years of marriage the couple divorced. Their eight child, a daughter Albertina Jacoba Antoinetta Benjamins, was born in Grogol March 19, 1850. She married, August 29, 1868 to Gustaf Leopold Pesch (son of Marten Pesch, born 1793 in Aachen, Germany. He was landowner of Cilincing and married to Louise Frederika Cooning, born Batavia 1817).

Unfortunately Albertina, died in childbirth after giving birth to a dead child, July 23, 1884, only 34 years old. Gustaf Leopold, born Batavia, January 20, 1843, died in Bogor, September 16, 1903.
When Albertina Benjamins married Gustaf Leopold Pesch the name Pesch was introduced into the line of descendants of Van Riemsdijk.

Albertina and Gustaf had nine children, three of them died as infants. Their eighth child Willem Frederik Pesch was born in Batavia, March 25, 1881 and died in Sukabumi July 19, 1921. He married Emilie Celestine van Lingen, born in Batavia July 18, 1883, died The Hague, July 20, 1951. You see the young couple Willem Frederik Pesch and Emilie Celestine van Lingen on the picture below. They are the great-grandfather and mother of Raul, Joeri, Quint, Jillian, Debby, Sharon and Dana.

Evi's husband and Freddy's wife are also present.

To know more about Evi Pesch (Freddy Johans Pesch sister) and her descendants you have to wait until the Evi van Daalen - Pesch family will update the genealogy of the Pesch family with their family history and branche Van Daalen - Pesch. You can then consult their website.

Epiloque

The lineal descent of Pesch family-Van Riemsdijk ends here. Thanks to the genealogy (authors Feith and Blois van Treslong Prins) we can pass detailed information to the future generation. With luck the Pesch family genealogy will be a never ending story. In this summary we started December 27, 1671 in Utrecht. For the ones who want to make more inquiries, we recommend that the (church) registers of Utrecht can be useful for reference. From the summary we learn that the Pesch family is multicultural. Their heritage is both European (Dutch, German) and Asiatic (Indonesian). This remarkable mix of races and cultures created handsome, warmhearted, civilized persons who know how to enjoy life.

To honour the Indonesian heritage we will print the photograph of the Freddy Johan Pesch family in traditional costume here below.

What's in a name?

2008-01-07T00:47:00.001+01:00

Wilhelmus Diederik Benjamins (1815-1858) , the adopted son of Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk (1752-1818) and his mistress from Sulawesi Dekkan van Mandhar had the family name Benjamins instead of Van Riemsdijk. We presume that early nineteenth century Dutch men of high rank did not want their male adopted children of mixed blood to carry the official family name. For that reason they gave their bastard children fancy names, like Benjamin(’s) or the family name spelled backwards to forwards. For example (van) Riemsdijk became Kijdsmeir.

A remarkable fact that we noticed in the genealogy is that the female adopted child Maria Catharina van Riemsdijk (1815 -1888) was allowed to carry the familyname Van Riemsdijk. We presume that, because she was a girl, the name Van Riemsdijk would very soon change into her husbands name. In fact it did when she married, in 1833, 18 years old, with F.H.C. van Motman, see third picture below (more information on page 452 Genealogy).

Maria Catharina van Riemsdijk was the daughter of Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk with his Sulawesian mistress Mietje van Mandhar. She was born only 23 days after her halfbrother Wilhelmus Diederick, the second son of mistress Dekkan van Mandhar and Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk.

On the painting below you see the 32 years older halfbrother of Maria Catharina and Wilhelmus Diederick. This halfbrother was the son of Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk and his Dutch wife Catharina Margaretha Craan. The two pictures give you an impression of the difference in colour and race between the children of Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk with his Dutch wife (Catharina Craan) and the ones he had with his Indonesian mistresses.

Daniel Cornelis Helvetius van Riemsdijk was the son of Willem Vincent Helvetius and his Dutch wife Catharina Craan.

Willem Helvetius van Riemsdijk

2008-01-07T00:42:00.001+01:00

The good old days?

Willem Vincent Helvetius was the second child of Jeremias and Adriana. Jeremias had five children from previous marriages of which three died as infants. Adriana's first child also died at childbirth. Her second child Willem Vincent Helvetius was born Batavia, November 23, 1752. He was baptized November 26 in the 'Hollandse Kerk'. He had a six years old halfbrother Isebrandus and a half sister of nearly three years, called Johanna. His father Jeremias lost four children in ten years time, as well as three wifes. In the eighteenth century this was not an unusual circumstance. Many children died at birth or very young, many women died in childbirth. People died of illnesses or diseases that nowadays can easily be cured.
Willem Vincent Helvetius was twenty years old when his mother Adriana died in childbirth at the age of 36. Her youngest child was two years.

Willem Vincent Helvetius married with Catharina Margaretha Craan on July 4, 1773 in Batavia one year after his mother’s death. The bride was born in Batavia June 1, 1754. The couple produced fourteen children.

Catharina died August 1792, 38 years old and three months after giving birth to her fourteenth child, that only lived one month. Her husband Willem Vincent never married again. He lived another twenty five years.

In stead of having a new wife he preferred to have several mistresses. Most of them were good looking Indonesian non Christian women.

Willem Vincent Helvetius was at that time the richest man in Batavia and lived like the European Royals of that Era. He could call himself the biggest landowner of Batavia. In 1777 his income was 453.000 Rijksdaalders (nowadays amount to millions of dollars). He had seven children with his mistresses and all seven were adopted by him. Two children died and five of them participated (just as his ten remaining legal Dutch children) in his will. They also participated as heirs-at-law for equal parts in the revenues of the enormous patrimonial estate. For that reason they and their descendants are mentioned in the genealogy.

Familyarms of the Craanfamily

See picture below in the woodcarving of the window above the door you can see the crane of the Craanfamily in the centre.

The house Tanjung Timur (Tandjoeng Oost) or Groeneveld. A most beautiful 18th century mansion at the outskirts of Batavia. It is build in the closed Dutch style. Willem Vincent Helvetius got the mansion in 1781 by devision of his father-in-laws property. The mansion was owned by the family until it was confiscated by the Indonesian gouvernment after the Independance. It was ruined by a fire in 1985.

Build in 1756 the direct descendants of Van Riemsdijk lived in the mansion from 1781 till World War II. After the independance of Indonesia Soekarno confiscated the property and nine police families were lodged in it for 30 years. While cooking on a stove a fire broke out and the house became a complete ruin. Photo above made in 1985.

Nothing left from what once was a beautiful estate. Picture made in 1996

Daniel Cornelis inherited the estate 'Groeneveld' from his father Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk. All his three daughters lived on the estate and were burried on the estate's graveyard. They would turn in their grave when they knew of the deplorable state their beautiful mansion is in nowadays.

Voor de geinteresseerde lezer volgen hier pagina 1 en 2 van de Genealogie. Niet alleen voor de directe nazaten maar ook in het algemeen zijn deze bladzijden interessant. Zij geven inzicht in de laatste periode van de VOC. Van Riemsdijk volgde Van der Parra op als Gouverneur Generaal. Het portret van Van der Parra en zijn vrouw zijn nu nog te bezichtigen in een van de zalen van het museum Sejarah in Jakarta. Deze Van der Parra was op 5 maart 1780 als peetvader getuige bij de doop van de zesde zoon van Willem Vincent Helvetius van Riemsdijk en zijn vrouw Catharina Margaretha Craan. Dit betekent, dat men onderling met elkaar bevriend was en elkaar dus ook de bal toespeelde. Na de dood van Jeremias van Riemsdijk volgde Reynier de Clerck hem in 1777 op als Gouverneur Generaal.
Van deze Reynier de Clerck wordt ook melding gemaakt in de genealogie. Hij en zijn vrouw waren op 24 februari 1765 getuige bij het huwelijk van Johanna, de dochter van Jeremias van Riemsdijk bij zijn derde vrouw. Alweer een duidelijk bewijs van het kleine wereldje van de VOC.
Het woonhuis van Reynier de Clerck is onlangs met sponsoring van het Nederlandse bedrijfsleven geheel gerestaureerd en in de oude glorie hersteld. Het is een bezoek meer dan waard en het geeft ook een indruk van de grote weelde waarmee hoge VOC dienaren zich omringden.
