Research Notes

  • Father as George Willemsen (Overlijden)
  • Comments added by user on WieWasWie refering to the birth place of Maastrecht for Hendrik Jan Jansen:
"17-7-2017 Hans: Aangaande Hendrik Jan Jansen is hier twee keer de plank misgeslagen. Ten eerste is hij in zijn leven waarschijnlijk nooit in Maastricht geweest. Ten tijde van dit huwelijk woonde en werkte hij als gemeentebode in Haastrecht. Hij werd evenwel op 4 april 1811 geboren in het Gelderse Zutphen Zie de Huwelijkse Bijlagen van dit huwelijk en van zijn huwelijk op 27 oktober 1869 te Gouda met Johanna Jilleba. Of ga naar het Gelders Archief voor zijn geboorteakte."
Translation
Regarding Hendrik Jan Jansen, two things are wrong here. First, he probably never visited Maastricht in his life. At the time of this marriage, he lived and worked as a town clerk in Haastrecht. However, he was born on 4 April 1811 in Zutphen, Gelderland See the Marriage Annexes of this marriage and of his marriage on 27 October 1869 in Gouda to Johanna Jilleba. Or go to the Gelders Archive for his birth certificate.
