Research notes
[SRC-587] Born about 1833 at De Rijp, Noord-Holland (ninety-one at death); died Egmond aan Zee, Noorderstraat 30, 12 July 1924. Widow of Adriaan BruijnH (PER-001923); daughter of Pieter Hottentot and Aafje [?Kelken], who are named on her certificate and deliberately not given rows - the Netherlands head of the Bruijn trail stays bounded. PROBABLE mother of Hubertus BruijnH (PER-000764): same village, right generation, the Bruijn name by her marriage. [TO VERIFY]
