Person talk:Aagtie Sijbes (1)

Correct title for page? [13 August 2010]

I think this page will eventually need to be renamed to Aagtje Sijbes. Since she died before 1811, it's unlikely that she adopted the Elzinga name. The version of Akke was used many years later, on her daughter's death certificate - likely a mistake. --Jennifer (JBS66) 09:28, 13 August 2010 (EDT)

Aagje Sijbes is in my opinion christened in Janum, Dantumadeel Jan 15, 1764; parents: Sijbe Jans & Akke Sakes. See: [1] Both her brothers took the familyname Elzinga. You are right to remove the familyname of Akke/Aagje Sijbes. Klaas--Ekjansen 11:16, 13 August 2010 (EDT)

Thank you. I renamed the page to her name as it appears in your source above, and also on her birth index at Tresoar. The other spelling variations I added as alternate names. Alternate name fields on WeRelate help during searches. Somebody could enter any of those spelling versions into the search field and this page will come up. --Jennifer (JBS66) 13:09, 13 August 2010 (EDT)
