"In 1731 we find the grazing rights (of the farm "Jan Harmsgat" ) being granted to a famous hunter, Jacobus Botha. His hunting career was brought to an end a couple of years later, when he shot a lion, and the lioness (which he had not seen) attacked and mauled him, leaving him for dead. Botha recovered but was never able to hunt again, and in 1734 Governor de la Fontaine made a freehold grant to Botha, for services rendered, of the farm Jan Harmans Gat which he was then occupying. The farm was described as 'vier uur te perd van die dorp Swellendam' . Jacobus Botha lived to the age of 90, dying in 1782, and his 12 sons gave him 190 grandchildren. The farm is situated along the slopes of the Langeberg, between the mountain and the Breede River. The modern road from Swellendam to Ashton runs along this beautiful valley."

According to the First Fifity Years Project, the mother of Jacobus Botha, Maria Kickers, was married to Jan Cornelisz. However, "from at least 1687 Frederich Both and Maria were lovers, apparently with the agreement of Jan. During divorce proceedings in 1700 Maria conceded that eight of her children, that is Theunis Botha, Willem Bootha, Catrijna Both, Cornelia Botha, Anna Bota, Maria Botha and Johannes Botha were fathered by Frederich Both(a) with the apparent encouragement (aanleijding) of her spouse, Jan Cornelisz, at the time. All of these offspring subsequently used the surname Both(a). However, in 1689 two women alleged that Theunis, Maria's oldest child, was fathered by Ferdinandùs Appel. This is born out by modern DNA tests, which have shown that direct patrilineal descendants of Theunis tested positive for the same Y-DNA haplogroup as direct patrilineal descendants of Appel."
Names in the record, in publications, for Jacobus Botha between 2 September 1714 and 8 August 1717, was written in the record as Jacobùs Bota and, between 7 October 1714 and 5 January 1716, as Jacobùs Boota.
