• Notes

  Changes by Margie 1. According to Patterson book Claes is younger than Christoffel and born bef 21 Jul 1651 (baptism date?). Changed birth day to 1651. The former 1620 makes him born when father is 2 and at same to mother born. I don't know where birth city comes from. 2. added immigration source 3. changed middle name to Jans to be consistent with siblings and mothers last name. Need to find baptism date 21 Jul 1651, if that is what it is
