Jan van Riebeek commanded the initial Dutch settlement fleet of 3 ships (Dromedaris, Reijger and Goede Hoop) which in 1651 travelled to the great southern oceans, landing on 6 April 1652 to establish the settlement of today's Cape Town, Cape of Good Hope.

Roelof de Man joined Van Riebeek at Cape Town on 5 January 1654 as the colony bookkeeper, sailing from Vlie, Netherlands on 23 August 1653 on the ship Naerden together with 4 other ships (Vreede, Lam, Draeck and Calff) - the latter two arriving sometime after the first three. Roelof's ancestors and family held prominent positions in the Culemborg community such as Alderman (Cornelis de Man in 1492 and 1507), Mayor (Aert de Man 1539-41 and Roelof de Man 1599), Churchmaster (Roelof de Man 1542-43 and Willem de Man 1561-62) and Postmaster (Otto de Man 1580-81).
