Research Notes

Birth - Profile Slecht-111 had birth on 25 Jul 1642 in South Holland

False Marriage

Husband: Gerrit Cornelissen Van Nieuwkirk

Note that Trintje listed above was previously detached from this mother, and then attached instead as Daughter of Gerrit Focken and Jacomyntje C. (Slecht) Elting, who are her correct parents, and Jacomyntje is the same woman as that match. So Trintje's van Nieuwkirk father named above in error. He is not the husband of Jacomyntje, nor Trintje's father. Instead, he is the husband of Jacomyntje's sister, Chieltie. Mix-216 00:06, 7 October 2014 (EDT)
