Person:Christoffel Schaets (1)

No other references to Christoffel Schaets have been found other than in the inheritance agreement made by Auke Jansen Van Nuys and Leysebet Janse. The document gives no clues as to where or when he died or where he may have come from.

It is almost certain, however, that his surname was misspelled in the same document. His only known son used "Schaers" as a surname when he used one and his grandsons followed the same course.
