Family talk:Gerhardus Rietberg and Johanna te Braak (1)


I'm confused [18 August 2015]

Hi, Woepwoep,

I don't understand what you are doing with this page. You have two different husbands for Johanna (Janna) on the same page, with the same marriage date. If she had two husbands, each should be on a different page, with the correct marriage date and place.

I also don't understand your source citation. You have Lichtenvoorde, Gelderland, Netherlands. Burgerlijke Stand, but those don't begin until 1811. Shouldn't the source be one of the Kerkelijke Registers sources?

I did find Janna's marriage to Gerrit Jan te Rietbarg on Gelder Archief, and also on Family Search [1].

Janna seems to have still been married to Gerrit Jan Rietberg when she died, so I don't understand why you also have her married to Garrit Jan Wopereis. Is this an alternate name for Gerrit Jan Rietberg? If so, then all of the information for him, including his alternate name, should go on the same page. He shouldn't have two pages.

Thanks, Gayel --GayelKnott 19:23, 16 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Ron, looks like you are doing pretty well getting this sorted out. Thanks for doing so. I'm not sure that I can be much help. I don't speak/read Dutch, and I'm not familiar with Gelderland. Anyway, it's looking good now. Gayel --GayelKnott 04:23, 19 August 2015 (UTC)
