    Volgens Pretorius deur drie Eeue: b3c7dl JOHANNES JACOBUS; = Tulbagh 28 Mei 1752; x 13 Junie 1773; ELIZABETH RACHEL MEYER; d/v Willem Meyer en Elizabeth Loots Hoewel hy die ou familieplaas Buffelsvallei,na sy Vader se dood op 'n openbare vendusie koop in 1777, laat hy tog byna onmiddellik die plaas in die hande van sy twee jonger broers en sy jongste suster wat met die Calitz familie ingetrou het en sodoende die dorp Calitzdorp stig. Hyself trek, moontlik agter sy vrou se mense aan, reg noord-weswaarts en in 1787 gee die opgaafrol horn aan as bewoner van die plaas Elandskraal "gelegen aant bovende einde van de Grote Visch Rivier" d. w. s. in die wyk Agter-Sneeuberg, op die vlakte net suid van die huidige Cradock. Hy behou egter kontak met sy Pretorius klein-neefs in die Pretoriuskloof wat hy bereik deur met die Lootsbergpas-pad te reis, waar die Lootse woon met wie twee van sy jongere kinders in die huwelik tree. Al ses sy seuns verhuis egter teen die helfte van die eeu na die Riemland, hoewel die middelste seun, Johannes Andries, eers 'n draai maak by Bloedrivier waar sy seun, onder die naam Jan Pretorius J'sn, saam met Retief vermoor word.

    Johannes married Elizabeth Rachel MEYER, a4b1c1d5 on 13 Jun 1773 in Cape, South Africa. Elizabeth was born about 1755; was christened on 20 Apr 1755; died in in Cape, South Africa. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
