In the muster roll of free people taken at the Cape in 1692 his name is given as 'Diederick Janse Potter' but this Janse appears in none of the other muster rolls.

He and Zacharia are listed in the muster rolls from 1686 (I believe there are earlier references) until 1698. Then, in 1700, she is listed as the widow of Diederik Putter.

His children are listed as given in the inventory drawn up after his death in May 1699.

At his death he is listed with a house and land on the height called Roodebloem and a farm with buildings situated in the Tijgerbergen.

Roodebloem, 17 morgen in extent, lay at the foot of the Windberg in the Tafel Vallei and had been granted 31 March 1669. It was sold out of his estate on 1st August 1705 with adjoining grazing land rented from the Company. (MOOC 9/1/20, Koopconditien)

The farm in the Tygerberg was sold in 1714 to Hendrik Bouman and his estate was distributed to his heirs in 1716.
