Ten Cate tombstone, Old Public Cemetery, Zeist

The tombstone of B. ten Cate and A. ten Cate-ten Cate.

Berend ten Cate, son of Sjoerd Hobbes ten Cate and Rigtje Napjes, was born on 11 July 1841 in Sneek and died on 16 August 1916 in Zeist.

He married Aafjen ten Cate, daughter of Gerrit ten Cate and Frouwkjen Schuurman, on 18 July 1861 in Sneek (prov. Friesland). She was born on 9 December 1840 in IJlst died on 19 May 1911 in Zeist.

They are buried together in Zeist.

I checked if Berend and Aafjen are first cousins, but they are not. Berend is a grandson of Barend ten Cate and Minke Sjoerds, Aafjen is a granddaughter of Hendrik ten Cate and Maria van Pesch. I don’t know (did not check) if they are more distant cousins.
