The 1705 Monsterrol is a list of all Company employees at the Cape in 1705. Each employee is listed in a hierarchy which is headed by the Governor, Willem Adriaan [Adrien] Van der Stel (q.v.) which explains why the data are listed in their original sequence: namely, to preserve the status order for the user of this data. Each employee is listed with their occupation, wage scale and when they arrived. This is a document which is found in Holland and thus may be new to most researchers here. The compiler has added a column of how many slaves each owned, based on aggregation of the discrete list of slave transfers, also included in this data collection. (q.v.).
