M, #6780, b. circa 1645
BirthOrigin* Claas was from Barsfleth, Meldorf, Schleswig-Holstein, , and may have been born there circa 1645. The date is estimated.1,2,3
Marriage* He married Annetie Sleghs on 7 February 1677 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), de Caep de Goede Hoop.4
Marriage He married Sara Wilhelmina Tas, daughter of Jan Tas and Margaretha Geertruijd Lindenhovius, on 8 May 1707 Nederduitsche Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), de Caep de Goede Hoop.5,6
Contract* On 26 April 1702 Claas Hendriksz concluded a contract with Claas Jansz van Rensburg for the latter to work for him as a leenkneg - labourer - for at least one year for ten guilders a month plus food, drink and accommodation. The relationship endured for for more than three years, until 29 October 1705 when the contract was dissolved. In my view it is significant that Diepenouw was from Barsfleth in the Dithmarsh, under Danish rule at the time, and close to Rensburg.7,8

[S898] Elmien Wood, "My naam is Van Rensburg, Janse van Rensburg", Capensis - My naam is Van Rensburg, Janse van Rensburg. Of is dit Bruin of dalk Schim? 3/2012 (September 2012): … Claas Schim sluit op 26 April 1702 ’n kontrak met Claus Heinrich Diepenow van Barsfleth in Duitsland (Kontrakte, 1702). Soos hierbo opgemerk, word dit dieselfde dag in die skeepsoldyrekening aangeteken. Daar word ooreengekom dat Claas Schim vir minstens ’n jaar vir Claus Diepenau sou werk “tijd van een geheel jaar trou en naarstig in alles geene waartoe hy hem benodigt heeft te dienen” en tien gulde per maand (ligte valuasie) sou ontvang. Behalwe die salaris sou hy ook kos, drank en huisvesting kry. Wat baie interessant is, is dat nie een van die twee komparante hul naam kon teken nie. Diepenau het met CHD geteken en Claas Schim met Cß. Waarom Claas so geteken het, weet ’n mens nie. Dit kan wees dat hy sy werkgewer nagemaak het, maar hoe het hy geweet van die letter Eszett? Dit is moontlik weer ’n aanduiding dat hy wel van Duitsland en nie van Nederland gekom het nie.. Hereinafter cited as "My naam is Van Rensburg, Janse van Rensburg."
