Jan Jacobus also under the profile de Villiers 1817, parents David de Villiers-1057 and mother Anna Catherina Conterman-30 Spouse's names is correct, see profile de Villiers-1399, Child Jacobus Abraham de Villiers-1032 also correct.
I also found Abraham (baptized 8 Dec 1743) married to Anna Hugo (2nd spouse), with 12 children, but none called Jan Jacobus.
