Could someone with time on their hands provide us with a baptism image and transcription thereof [the latter not from Family Search] of Johann George Herbst / Herpst (born abt. 1748) Nijkerke, Netherlands? Appreciatively ...

Here it is mentioned when he arrived (Churchmember) 

South Africa, Dutch Reformed Church Registers (Cape Town Archives), 1660-1970 ," database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-266-12147-86077-10?cc=1478678 : accessed 12 April 2016), South Africa > Cape of Good Hope > Cape Town > Memberships 1757-1832 > image 14 of 160; State Archives, Cape Province. at the bottom of the right page 

And this , I think you already have it, is where is mentioned he left from Nijkerke

And maybe , since it's mentioned he left from Neukirchen, he's related to this Johann Heinrich Herbst ? Which probably means we have to look in Neukirchen for a Birth record .

Yes indeed - I'll see if there is a duplicate Heinrich out there ...

Here they both are Johann Heinrich Herbst and  Anna van der Schelde  :)

Yes - found it: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Herbst-248 (interestingly enough there had been others with the same surname that came to the Cape earlier on: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Herbst-49 or who got tied to the Cape later on: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Herbst-99 [family of Oscar P.?]).
Thanks Bea :)

Here something that might also be interesting : In "Waldeckische Wappen 3" S. 314 is mentioned :

Johann Justus Pistorius (*1615, + 1674, Schulmeister u. Kantor in Niederwildungen, dann Pfarrer in Mengeringhausen 1638-1661 u. Vasbeck 1662-74, verh. mit "Anna Katharina Herbst", Tochter des Pfarrers Johann H. in Sachsenhausen u.d. Margarethe Huxer aus Wildungen. 

Johann Justus Pistorius married Anna Katharina Herbst daughter of Minister (dominee) Johann Heinrich (?) Herbst en Margarethe Huxer from Wildungen.

And they all (or at least Johann (Jost) Justus and his wife Anna Catharina Herbst) , seem to be present here already :) Pistorius 

(Herbst descendants)

Unglaublich ... very interesting ... I'll make a connection to the earliest Pistorius profile ... thanks Bea!

Bea - I matched the two Herbst profiles - they might be different persons - the plot thickens - see the bio of Herbst-248: Johann Heinrich Herbst arrived at the Cape of Good Hope in about 1749 as a soldier. He came from Neukirchen, district Ziegenhain in Germany. From 1752 to 1755 he was a baker and in 1758 he became a miller. He died on 25.10.1800.

in case of any confusion please note: In 1767 he employed a possible family member in his baking and milling enterprise, by the same name, Johann Heinrich Herbst, from the same town and district in Germany, This JH Herbst married on 29.11.1799 Maria Buitendag and he died in Paarl on 23.4.1820.

Yes I was just looking at it , I would not merge them they seem to be different people, maybe Johann George was the or just another familymember ?? I'm trying to find a good German source , but you know Germany, it's not the easiest place to find good sources :P

The info all comes from this forum Ahnenforschung .net  and they mention  sources but the actual sources seem not to be available on the internet ..but still digging :P

Have to go now, but here's a link to the German Archive already searching for Johannes Pistorius 314 results  and here for Johannes Herbst 720 results, 11 from the Hessisches Staatsarchiv (Neukirchen if I'm correct was part of that region) so hopefully there's something there for them :D

Wonderful, thanks Bea!

Here are all Herbst immigrants from the South Africa immigrants list 

So they all are different people I guess and from different dates of course , years of arrival:

HERBST, Christian Friedrich, Königsberg in Preußen, 1752 
HERBST, Johann, Bremen, 1686 
HERBST, Johann Georg, Neukirchen, 1770 
HERBST, Johann Heinrich, Neukirchen im Kreis Ziegenhain, 1749 
HERBST, Johann Heinrich, Neukirchen im Kreis Ziegenhain, 1767 

Interesting, thanks Bea! (I did some detective work of myself among the Pistorius LNAB - the first one to arrive was born in the late 18th century and migrated to the fledging Republic of Natalia via the Cape to the end of the first quarter of the 19th century).
