Andries Krugel 1 farmer (1713) 2 of the farm, 't Blomkooltje, Paarl and by 1734 Weltevreden, Joostenberg 3 born circa 1675, Tenneloo, near the town of Nourenbergh 4 died 12 April 1734 5 will dated 10 March 1734 and filed 1736 Notes: He first appears in the Cape records in the muster roll of Company servants of July 1703 as Andries Kreugel from Neurenberg, soldier, alongside Matthijs Kreugel from Neurenberg, soldier. On 10th January 1704, Andries Kreugel of Neurenburgh, soldier, was loaned out to Olaf Bergh by the Governor, Willem Adrian van der Stel. This was a usual practice at the Cape whereby the new master paid the keep of the soldier, but the latter was available for service. (source: Leibbrandt, The Defence of W.A.van der Stel, p.120) On the 14th September 1714 he requested and received permission from the Burgerraad to move from the Cape District to that of Drakenstein. (1 STB 15/2) The inventory drawn up in 1722 after the death of Zacharia Visser, lists four farms altogether, 't Blomkooltje and 't Heijningsboomtje at Paarl, de Cartouw over the Twenty Four Rivers, and Brandenburg in Piketberg. From the inventory the main dwelling house would appear to have been 't Blomkooltje at Paarl, whereas most of the animals seem to have been at de Cartouw and Brandenburg where the inventory suggests the living conditions were minimal. 't Blomkooltje consisted, according to the inventory, of a Voorhuis with a room either side, a kitchen, a wine cellar, a smithy and a wagonmaker's shop. There are also seven slaves listed, apparently under the heading of 't Blomkooltje, six men and one young girl. In 1723 he bought the farm Weltevreden from the estate of his mother in law, Maria van Staden, and at the time of Maria Ras's death in May 1734, they were still living on that farm, the house of which, from the description, was identical to Blomkooltje, except that there is no wagonmaker's shop. The also had two extra farms on the Olifants River: Palmietfonteijn and Langevalleij. The farm Weltevreden was sold from their estate on 15th June 1734 to Burgert Brand for 14725 gulden.
