Family:Wijnant Van Eck and Annetje Auckes (1)

The text of the marriage record for Wijnant and Annetje reads as follows:

"1661, December 4: Wijnant Pieterzen, "from Eck in the Betuwe" to Anneken Auckens, "from Amsterd[am]"; Witnesses: Aucke Jans, father of the bride, Jan Jacobszen van Rheenen [of Rhenen]".

It is interesting to note that the text supports the baptismal record identification. It is even more interesting to note that the witness Jan Jacobszen van Rheenen was the husband of Geertje Gysbrecht who would many years later marry Aucke Jans as his third wife.
