Research Notes

  • In the transcription of some of Jan's birth certificate incorrectly put Jan's patronym as Claesen when the documents only have Jan's name and his father who was Gijsbert Claesen and it should be Gijsbertsz. This is also the case for many of Jan's siblings. This should be corrected.

Van Beest-79 and Claesen-116 appear to represent the same person because: Hi, I think that these two people are the same and Jan's last name at birth was Claesen. Jan van Beest was baptised as Jan Claesen before the family name van Beest was adopted. H was was baptized on February 20, 1684 in Giessen, Brabant, Netherlands. His parents were Gijsbert Claesen and his mother Teuntje Jans.

He married as the name Jan Gijsbertse van Beest to Ariaantje Henderikze van Drunen. [1]

Van Beest-79 and Claesen-116 are not ready to be merged because: I am not yet convinced that Jan Claesen, baptised 1684 in Giessen, is the same person as Jan van Beest, husband of Ariaentie van Druenen. Is there additional evidence that supports this?

posted on Claesen-116 (merged) by Jos de Kloe

So there are a few indicators but they might not be that strong and maybe I cannot make that leap.

The first thing is that I think on the birth citation the transcription could bes wrong and instead of Jan Claese it should be Jan Gijsbertsen or Gijsbertse as that should be the correct patronym pattern given that his father was Gijsbert Claesen. The certificate just says "Jan". However this same mistake is made on other children I believe are the product of this couple. The other indication is that I think they are the same person is that Teuntje Jans and Gisjbert Claesen have at least 5 children born in Giessen in the years 1681, 1681, 1684, 1687 and 1693. The child born in 1857 (Eefje) has Teuntje Jans and Gijsbert Claesens van Beest as the parents. I have assumed that this is still part of the same family. This is Eefjes birth citation: https://salha.nl/bronnen/genealogy/personen/deeds/7398aafa-0670-e065-d8ab-a31368cd6bb0 Let me know what you think. If you think that is no enough evidence I am happy to removed the baptism source and merge them. Thanks, Sonia

Hi Sonia,

thanks for the clarification. Yes I agree that the baptism record in 1687 for the child Eefje is a strong hint that Gijsbert Claesz is in fact also known as Gijsbert van Beest, and this makes it much more likely that Jan Gijsbertsz, baptised in 1684 is the same as Jan van Beest. So with this extra information the merge con proceed I think.

But first, following Dutch naming conventions, the LNAB for this profile should be changed to Gijsbertsz. Can you do that?

posted on Claesen-116 (merged) by Jos de Kloe

Yes I will do that now. I am hoping that that these messages will still be attached!

posted on Claesen-116 (merged) by Sonia (Dykstra) McIntosh

Thanks.

And in case the messages get lost, we should just repost them on the new profile I think.

Gijsbertsz-25 and Van Beest-79 appear to represent the same person because: I think that i have to request this from you again??

posted on Gijsbertsz-25 (merged) by Sonia (Dykstra) McIntosh

Sorry, I merged them the wrong way around. I will fix this now.
