| | Thieleman Visser 1677-1713 born 1677 7 baptized 21 February 1677, Cape Town 8 died between 1713 and 1715, (assumed) 9
 Notes: In the the muster roll of 31 December 1704 and again in 1705, he is listed as a single man living in the Cape District, but not after that date. He is, however, listed as one of his father's heirs in the inventory of October 1713, but is no longer included in the estate accounts of 15 November 1715.
 He signed a statement in Stellenbosch on 24 August 1706 (1 STB 18/155, 26)
 There is an entry in the Weeskamer Journal for 1718 for a Thieleman Visser, f. 382.18.18 as at 1 Jan 1718
 and Aaltie Visser for f. 454.16.-
 and Gerrit Visser for f. 1782.7.-

| Hendrik Visser 1678-circa 1713 born 1678 10 baptized 23 October 1678, Cape Town 11 died circa 1713 12
 Notes: In the the muster roll of 31 December 1709 he is listed as a single man living in the Cape District, and he made an opgaaf return for 1712, still living in the Cape, but does not appear again after that date. He is not mentioned among his father's heirs in the inventory of his estate filed with the Weeskamer October 1713, so one can assume that he too died during the smallpox epidemic of 1713.

| Jannetie Visser 20 born 1690 born 1690, at the Cape 21 baptized 28 May 1690, Stellenbosch 22
 Notes: In the inventory of 17 October 1713, MOOC 8/2, 82, listing the the goods of the deceased Gerrit Jansz Visser, among his children are listed both Jannetje and Johanna. The Estate Accounts drawn up for the same deceased estate in 1715, list Johanna but no Jannetie. A child not named in the 1713 list is, however, introduced in the person of Anna Visser, married to Jan Arent Rodewald.
 The marriage entry of this couple and her later remarriage to Jacob Nissen makes plain, however, that the Anna must be a mistake and that the person intended was Jannetie.
 She appears not to have had any children.
