Things that need to be done:
(1) Christening date in biography should be 1 Jan 1647, not 1 Jan 1647/1648.
(2) Marriage record in the biography should be about 1670 (the 12 April 1671 date is when the first child was christened).
(3) Death date of 26 August 1688 should be removed unless a good source can be found giving that date.
(4) son Aldert (b. 1684) probably died young and son Aldert (b. 1685) was probably the one who grew to adulthood and married.
(5) Click on the G2G link for more information on whether Roelof died after 1708 (witnessed his niece's baptism) and after 1709 (apparently on Tax List of 1709).
The 1671 marriage date in the biography is probably wrong (that is the date of their eldest child's christening).
