Marriage*He married Geertie Taks before 21 September 1692.2
 
Names in the record, in publications, etc.20 June 1691, the name of Hans was written in the record as Hendrik Saint, I believe that Böeseken made a transcription error in identifying this individual as Hendrik Saint and that he was in fact Hans (Jan) Hendrik Smit.3

21 September 1692, the name of Hans was written in the record as Hans Hendrik Smit.
