Marriage of Teunis de Birk and Mietje Schipper
The marriage of Teunis de Birk and Mietje Schipper, my 5th great-grandparents. A court marriage in Hilversum, on 23 November 1787. The certificate states that Teunis was a widower (of Teuntje L. de Boer), while Mietje was still unmarried.
As far as I know, Teunis and Mietje had five children: Leijsbet (1788), Gerrit (1789), Catharina (1790), Aaltje (my 4th great-grandmother, 1792), and Leijsje (1793).
My line to Teunis and Mietje: Me – Dad – Alida Melessen (1917-2007, x Hendrik van Kampen) – Mietje Houthuijzen (1888-1945, x Albert Melessen) – Aaltje Bollebakker (1852-1891, x Rijk Houthuijzen) – Jan Bollebakker (1817-1861, x Gijsbertje Kloppenburg) – Aaltje de Birk (1792-1841, x Cornelis Bollebakker) – Teunis de Birk and Mietje Schipper.
