The First Fifty Years Project http://www.e-family.co.za/ffy/ Page: Pieter de Bruijn: Pieter, soon va Tunis De Bruijn en Justina Kleef. Getujige de Ouders.. Also, although the 'D' in De Bruìjn is obviously written in upper case, for the purposes of this project and keeping to the homogeneity of Dutch, Afrikaans and French customs to start suffixes in the lower case, the lower case convention will be the kept in this particular instance by putting the name as it is conventionally spelled in the current name box.
