Notes |
- Extracted from an email from Tessyman V. Peter, 14/01/2003 to SOUTH-AFRICA-L@rootsweb.com mailing list.:
The family originated with Johann Friederich Zeiler from "Pansouva" or "Panchua" in Hungary. This has been identified as Pancevo in modern-day Yugoslavia, which may mean that Zeiler was a descendant of the Saxon peoples who settled there as a result of the blandishments of Geza II, the twelfth century King of Hungary. Johann Friederich Zeiler emigrated to South Africa and he enters our history with his marriage on 23rd Nov 1794 in Cape Town to Dorothea Catharina Mulder (or Muller), the daughter of Nicholaas Mulder. The couples son, Johannes Jocobus Zeiler (after whom the Queenstown Street is named) was born on the 12 Jan 1798 and baptised in the Dutch Reformed Church Cape Town on 21 Jan 1798.
Johannes Jacobus grew up in Cape Town. He married Dina Fredrika Schildbach, daughter of Jan Pieter Schildbach and Hendrina Dorothea Geyser, in the Lutheran Church in Cape Town on 25 Jan 1818.
After 1822 Johannes J. Zeiler left Cape Town and lived on the farm "Schaape Kraal" in the Tarka area of the Eastern Province where he was listed as Justice of the Peace at Tarka and by 1843 he is shown as a member of the Cradock School Commission.
In 1858 J.J.Zeiler moved to his newly-acquired property outside Queenstown, Fordyce Fountain (known today simply as Fordyce). J.J. Zeiler and his wife Dina are both buried in the farm cemetery.
In 1895, Fordyce passed into the hands of the McComb family, who had followed the Zeilers from Cradock. Stephan Johannes van Wyk McComb married Dorothea Francina Zeiler, daughter of Johannes Jocobus Zeiler, who was born on 15 Jun 1837 and died on 7 Sep 1874 and buried on Fordyce. Stephan and Dorothea McComb are my maternal Great Grand Parents. After Dorothea's death Stephan married Aletta Jane Crowe Lovemore.
There is also an article on The Queenstown Zeilers printed in Journal of the Queenstown & Frontier Historical Society, Vol V, 1984, pages 56 - 58.
