Petrus married Alida in Apr 1861, so f12, f13 and f14 must be regarded as doubtful. However, the children not mentioned on the attached DN are:

f2, f4, f15, f16, f17, f18 and f20. The bottom of the page may or may not have included f24.

Individual baptism records would be needed to resolve this. ^[2]
