Birth*Gideon Slabbert was born before 31 January 1706 in de Caep de Goede Hoop.2,3
 
BaptismGideon Slabbert was baptized on 31 January 1706 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, (Cape Town), de Caep de Goede Hoop. The baptism was witnessed by Cornelia Slabbert and Robert Robertsz Brand.4 
Marriage*He married Francina Carstens, daughter of Johannes Hermann Karstens and Catharina van As, on 7 March 1728 Nederduitsch Gereformeerde Kerk, Drakenstein, de Caep de Goede Hoop.5
Marriage*He married Clara Bok van der Caep, daughter of Christiaan Bok and Anna Groothenning van Bengale, on 1 August 1756 Swartland, de Caep de Goede Hoop. Published genealogies and researchers have recorded this marriage between Gideon Slabbert the son and Clara Bock. However, the inventory of the estate of Francina Karsten, first wife of Gideon Slabbert senior, did not include the son Gideon, who must therefor have predeceased her. Clara therefor married Gideon Slabbert senior - which also makes chronological sense, given that she was 23 years older than Gideon junior.6
 
Death*He died circa 1771 de Caep de Goede Hoop.7
