Johann is buried in a small cemetery in the bush on the outskirts of Braunschweig (S32 47 12.34 E27 21 49.59), north of King William's Town, Cape Province, South Africa. Dates of birth and death confirmed from his tombstone and from the list of those interred in the Braunschweig Cemetery received from the Amathole Museum in King William's Town.
Both his tomb stone and death notice present his name as Herman Johan Heinrich PAUTZ but also incorrectly record his place of birth as "Moldenberg" as opposed to Woldenburg. However, his baprismal record clearly shows that he was named Johann Hermann Heinrich PAUTZ. On the La ROchelle passenger list he is recorded as Hermann, so that is how he was probably addressed all his life.
