On the archives site, probably an ancestor:

SUMMARY   +    Copy  of an entry in Dutch in the Baptismal Register of         
               the Reformed Church, Cape Town, recording  the  baptism         
               on 6 March 1842 of Daniel Coenraad Adriaan Vos, born on         
               18420114,  the  parents  being Fredrik Michiel Luyt Vos         
               and Magdalena Sophia Nieuwenhuysen.  Certified  a  true         
               copy by A Faure.                             

It is likely that all the children would have been baptised in the Reformed Church. A lot of those records are online at Family Search.
