    Notes:

    Beste Ronel,

    Ek wil dit net onder jou aandag bring dat die Gous/Gouws-familie in SAG Deel 2 vol foute is. Baie navorsing moet nog oor die Gous-familie gedoen word. Die bietjie navorsing wat ek al oor die familie gedoen het het aan die lig gebring dat Stephanus Gouws wat met Catharina Huppenaar getroud was nie b1c1 is nie, maar b6c. Hy was 'n seun van Andries Gous, gebore 1698 en Johanna Conterman.

    Notes:

    Ex Slave of Hans Geringer

    Anna is op 5.6.1698, toe 22 jaar oud, deur die skipper Cornelis Keeleman aan Gerrit Meyer verkoop vir 54 Rds. Meyer het in 1693 vanaf Nederland gekom, en is getroud met Susanna Costeux, 'n dogter van Franse vlugtelinge. Meyer se kinders, met geboorte datums, was as volg: Hendrik (12.9.1694), Susanna Margaretha (1695 of 1696), Elsabe (31.3.1697) en laatlammetjie, Jesias Engelbert (6.9.1733). Op 20.7.1702 is Anna deur Jan Laurentz aan Christiaan Weinock verkoop. Sy is toe in die Transportakte vermeld as 26 jaar oud. Dit was 'n jaar nadat Laurentz met Woutrina Mostert in die eg getree het op 1.5.1701, en 'n eersteling in die huwelik gebore is op 30.4.1702. Christiaan Weinock het op 20.12.1702 'n erf in Taffelvallei, aangrensend aan Kerkplein, gekoop. Weinock het in 1703 sy totale eiendom aan Jan Laurentz verkoop, en dit moes toe gewees het dat sy die eiendom van Geringer geword het. Die skrywer maak die afleiding dat die Laurentz-huishouding om een of ander rede nie vir Anna wou terugneem nie. Geringer het op daardie stadium eiendom in Heerestraat, Tafelvallei, besit sedert 17.4.1701. Volgens die geboortedatum van haar en Geringer se kind moes sy toe reeds swanger gewees het. 'n Kind is in 1703 gebore genoem Maria Groothenning of Maria Bock, of Maria van die Kaap. Anna Groothenning is met haar kinders in 1709 deur Geringer losgekoop uit slawerny. Sy, met haar kinders, is op 1.1.1713 in die N G Gemeente Kaapstad gedoop. Sy trou op 5.2.1713 met Geringer se vriend en vennoot, Christiaan Bock, wat drie jaar later in 1716 oorlede is.

    Sy raak na Bock se dood betrokke in 'n buite-egtelike verhouding met Jacob Marik, volgens hofsake tussen hom en Geringer, 'n geslepe bedrieër. 'n Kind word uit die verhouding gebore op 6.3.1718. Geringer is oorlede in 1719.
