Notes SLABBER(T) - oorspronklik gespel SLABBAART en SLABBAERT - was 'n ou voornaam in Vlaandere en Zeeland. Dit kan ook op harringvissery betrekking hãe, want slabber is 'n ou naam vir haring. Die egpaar bring uiteindelik 10 kinders in die lewe waarvan 5 van die kinders in Meliskerke op die eiland Walcheren in Zeeland gedoop word. Die gesin SLABBERT kom in 1699 in Suid-Afrika aan, nadat Huibrecht nog op 11.1.1699 as doopgetuie by die doop van Pieter, seun van haar broer te Aagtekerke opgetree het en voordat hulle oudste dogterNeeltje op 21.11.1700 aan die Kaap in die huwelik tree met Robbert BRAND. Die presiese datum van aankoms asook die naam van die skip is nog onbekend. Om een of ander rede handig Floris eers op 22.12.1704 dus ongeveer 5 jaar na sy aankoms in die Kaap, sy attestaat in die Kaap in. Oor sy beroep is daar op daardie stadium maar weinig bekend. In Februarie 1716 onderteken Floris egter as vryburger en boer saam met ander boere 'n versoek aan die Kommissaris om die graanprys te verhoog. Volgens 'n aantekening woon Floris SLABBERT in 1713 "bij den Tijgersberg, vijf uren gaans van de Cab de Bon Esperance". Die plaas se naam was Conterman's Kloof en hy het die plaas in 1706 ontvang.

Arriveer in 1699.
The children are given here in the order which seems logical. We lack baptismal
information only for Johanna and Jasper, but Johanna was married on 2nd April
1702 at Stellenbosch, and Jasper's first child was baptised 30th July 1713, so
that placing them second and third seems reasonable.
The Slabbert family travelled out from Vlissingen in Zeeland to the Cape on the
ship the 'Sion' which left Wielingen (the roadstead south of Vlissingen) on route
to Ceylon on 19th May 1699, arriving at Cape Town on 27th October 1699
They are noted in the membership register of the church at Stellenbosch, the
date being probably between 1698 and June 1700, and then on the 24th Dec.
1704, Floris presented his 'attestaat' to the church at Cape Town.
On 30th March 1713, in reply to a letter from his brother, Pieter Slabber, Floris
wrote to his brothers still living in Westkapelle, Walcheren, to say that, in the
event of the death of his father-in-law that anything due to him and his wife,
they gave to his brother Jeremias Slabbert.
