There is no mention in the marriage register entry as to whether he or his wife had been previously married or not, nor is there any patronymic to indicate who his father was.
On the death notice of his son, Jacobus Hendrik, he is entered as 'Alewyn Smit, Jacobus Zoon'; in the joint will made by him and his wife in 1774 he is named as Alewijn Smit Jacobz. and in the estate distribution file produced by the Weeskamer on the death of his widow, Engela Helena van Niekerk, made in July 1820, her late husband is stated to be Alewyn Smith Jacobuszoon.
For this and other reasons (see Alewyn Smit de oude <http://www.ballfamilyrecord s.co.uk/smit/I003.html>) I have not followed De Villiers/Pama for the parentage of this man but take him to be b2c12, page 893.
His baptism was witnessed by Alewijn Smit and Helena Gous.
His will was dated 9 April 1774 and filed 12 February 1788.
