    "As Alexander Simpson married his second wife, Martha Lee, on September 10, 1709, it is evident that Jannetje Stevense died prior to that date."

    "The date of [Jannetje's] death is unknown, but it was prior to the second marriage of her second husband on 19 September 1709."

  5. ↑ Two sources gives slightly different dates for her husband's second marriage (probably due to legibility issues), but it appears to be the only information available for when Jannetje died. Derivative sources such as Find A Grave that claim she died 10 Sep 1709 are missing the "before" from the date.
