Adriaan Bruijn

? – before 1924-07-12

No birth date is recorded for this person. The family puts an outer limit on it: born no later than 1839, because their child born 1855, so at least 16 years earlier. That is a hard limit, it cannot be otherwise. It is an upper bound and not a birth year, and nothing in the model records it as one.
