| Notes |
- Hans was a burgher of Drakenstein.
He was a soldier in the VOC. On 17 Nov 1722 he was discharged from the army because of a physical disability.
On 31 Mar 1731 a case was discussed by the Politieke Raad in which he was involved. 10 Khoi bushmen (sons of Grebenau) had stolen livestock from him. They were followed and found by 12 burghers. The bushmen then fired on the burghers with arrows.
In the De la Fontein report ta comment was made that he could make a living from his livestock and farm, but not without owing debts. It was also mentioned that Frederik Huppenaar (his nephew) lived with him as servant.
One of the witnesses at his baptism was Hans Jurgen Grimpe, who arrived in the Cape in 1677 from Germany.
- (Research):Hans was 'n soldaat in diens van die VOC. Op 17 November 1722 word Hans vrygestel van die weermag as gevolg van 'n ligaamlike gebrek.
Hans en Cornelia het 9 kinders (3 seuns en 6 dogter) gehad. Aangesien die gemeenskap in die Drakenstein / Stelenbosch gebied maar klein was, was dit daardie tyd maar moeilik om 'n man of vrou te vind wat nie reeds familiebande gehad het nie. Hul oudste seun, Hermanus (~ 15 Julie 1721), trou met sy niggie, Elsie Botha. Martha (~ 13 September 1722) het met Hermanus Steyn (s.v. Jacobus Steyn en Maria Potgieter) getrou. Elsie (~ 3 Februarie 1726) trou met Philippus Snuman, Isabella (~ 14 September 1727) trou met Anthony Lombaard en later met Christiaan Godlieb Lessing, Catharina (~ 2 Desember 1731) trou eers met haar neef Petrus Botha. Haar tweeling suster, Maria (~ 2 Desember 1731) het met hul neef Johannes Lodewikus du Preez getrou. Na Maria se dood trou Johannes en Catharina. Niks is verder bekend oor Hans en Cornelia se 5de kind, Amerentia (~ 5 Februarie 1730).
