Research notes

[SRC-074] Son of PER-000208. The FamilySearch spelling keeps the trema: Oosthuÿsen.

[31 Jul 2026] MERGED PER-000577 into this row. PROVEN DUPLICATE, resolved on the FamilySearch id. Both rows carry GK37-MZV; an FS id names one person, so these are one person recorded twice. Created by the 31 Jul 2026 one-degree tree pull, which matched on tree id alone - and 255 model people carry no tree id, so any of them one hop from a tree-linked person was added again. Survivor is the pre-existing row; it carries the prose, sources and land links. Moved across: tree id=. Dates sharpened from the merged row: birth_edtf 1849 -> 1849-02-05. DISAGREEMENTS, kept rather than resolved - the FamilySearch id settles these in one click: display_name: kept 'Jacobus Johannis OosthuÿsenH (b.1849)', PER-000577 said 'Jacobus Johannis OosthuÿsenH'.

These are working notes, not finished prose: they carry the reasoning, the corrections and the things still marked to verify. They are kept here so the page itself can read as what is known.
