Peter Johannes Thijssen (1889 - 1957)

The LNAB stands for Last Name At Birth, one of the most important fields here at WikiTree. It determines the most accurate name for the person and also gives the identifier. It is really important to have it correct so we do not get duplicated profiles.

The profile manager is the only person who can change it.

For the Netherlands, we have excellent primary sources, available for free. From 1811 onward there is the Civil Registration that determines the family name, and thus the LNAB. Please check those before starting a profile.

The profile currently has the source for birth, including the links to the birth certificate. The one shown as nr 1. When you follow the wiewaswie link, you get the links to all the officially known other documents. You can then use one of the formatter tools (https://www.genenealogietools.nl or Sourcer App) to format the source reference and paste that into the profile.
