Aantekeningen: |
Cornelis Jans Knol was born in Warffum in the province Groningen. He married Maartje Willems Alberda. The couple lived before 1850 on a farm in the polder Walenburg. Maartje died in 1852, and Cornelis emigrated a year later. He was listed in the "Staat van landverhuizers" as a mennonite workman, 58 years old. He went to North America, but alas I do not have more specific information about his destination.
