Notes |
- A native of Hanover, he served with the Duke of Brunswick's cavalry from 1809, and after¬wards with the Royal Scots Guards as a non-commissioned officer. He was seriously wounded at Bergen-op-zoom in 1814, and granted a pension of 6d a day which he com¬muted into a lump sum of £30. He applied to emigrate in 1817, and applied again to go to the Cape in 1819, after being out of work for nearly three months. He was engaged as an indentured servant by John Bailie, and was entered on the emigrant lists as a vine-dresser. He was employed as cook on the Chapman's voyage from England. On arrival at Algoa Bay he left the party to work for Frederick Korsten. In 1821 he was granted a small piece of land at Port Elizabeth, and found work as a day-labourer and shoemaker. His eldest daugh¬ter Ann married a British settler, Thomas Sterley, in 1829; a younger daughter died from snakebite in 1831. By 1839 he and his wife had separated; Mrs Ann Franz lived in her own house at Uitenhage, where she practised as a midwife. Franz left the district, and died in poor circumstances as a schoolmaster at Somerset.
