Something Else Odd [30 July 2012]

There's something else unusual about this family which seems to be more than just a transcription error. If you look at the birth register, you don't see any of the marginal notes about "wettiging" that you would expect from a child born two years before his parents' wedding. That may be related to the fact that the listed mother is "Sjoukje Klazes Dijkstra", not "Sjoukjen Klazes van der Veen". What do you think? --Pkeegstra 07:10, 30 July 2012 (EDT)

First of all, in those years the officials still didn't take the familynames too serious, so I am convinced this is just one and the same Sjoukje Klazes. They did not mention their son at the wedding, so no remark has been made about Klaas in the marriage record! But nevertheless I still think they are the parents of Klaas, and they might have been living together already before the official marriage (in those times!).--Klaas (Ekjansen) 08:00, 30 July 2012 (EDT)
