1. Pieter Vitringa Coulon
Pieter, Maria (ca. 1864-1953) and Johanna Vitringa Coulon were children of the Dutch colonial official Julius Vitringa Coulon (1824-1878), who served on the Gold Coast between 1853 and 1866, and Adjua Hogen from Elmina. At the time of Muller's visit, Pieter was registrar to the District Commissioner's Court at Elmina. Johanna has her daughter Mercy Hughes sitting on her lap. Descendants of the two women still live in Cape Coast and Elmina.
