[edit] Books about the Roux family
- Die Familie Roux by Johannes van der Bijl, M.Sc., A.M. (Harvard). Published by the Raad vir Geesteswetenskaplike Navorsing, Pretoria, 1978. ISBN 0-86965-464-0
- This book contains a detailed family tree of the descendants of Roux, Paul (1665), from the time of his arrival in the Cape until the 1900's. While it mentions Roux, Antoine Augustin Joseph (1825) as the root of another possible family tree, it does not contain any information on his descendants after the first generation.
