• Notes

  Cristoph Grünwald arrived at the Cape by 1690 as Corporal in service of the H.O.I.K. from Kõningsbergin in East Prussia (now Kalingrad, Russia). In 1691 he became burger and blacksmith. The marriage couple lived on the farm "Hou den Mond" [Keep your mouth] outside Stellenbosch, which was allocated to Christoph in 1701. Between 1705-1708 they bought first one half and later the other half of "Groenhof" at the north-eastern side of Stellenbosch. With the christening of their children, his name was written in the christening register as Christoffel. Duitse naam verhollands na Christoffel Groenewald. Van Konigsberge afkomstig volgens Pama I; Korporaal in diens van die H.O.I.K. 1690; burger en smid 1691;
