Pierre Abraham and Jacques were the founders of the de Villiers clan in South Africa.

They fled France to escape religious persecution after the revocation of the Edit of Nantes in 1685.

They fled their family wine farm at Niort, near La Rochelle in France, for the Netherlands leaving behind their parents, Pierre (de) Villiers and Elizabeth Secault, and younger brother Paul. The three brothers were given free passage to South Africa on the Dutch East India Company ship the ZION arriving at the Cape in 1686 when Jacques (the youngest of the three brothers) was 25 years old.

Jacques, who started signing his name Jacob soon after his arrival at the Cape, married Marguerite Gardiol, who also started signing her name as Margaretha. She was born at La Coste, Provence in France on 2.10.1670 and arrived at the Cape with her sister Susanne, and her mother Maguerite Perodette in 1689.

Initially the three de Villiers brothers shared a 60 morgen farm at Franche Hoek (or French Corner, so called because of the number of other French Huguenots already settled there).

Five years after their arrival their dilligence came to the notice of the Governor of the Cape, Simon van der Stel and they were each granted their own farm. Jacques (Jacob named his La Brie.

By 1716 the brothers were prosperous farmers and had between them reared 20 children. They started looking for additional properties and Abraham acquired the farm Boschendaal, the spelling of which was later changed to Boschendal. Abraham only had two sons, one of whom died in infancy and the other was a cripple, who also died young. This decided him to bequeath Boschendal to his brothewr Jacques (Jacob)) our forebear.

Jacques fathered 12 children His youngest child Jean, who called himself Jan inherited Boschendal
