Howard and others,
thanks (as always). I am not in the oppurtunity to visit a FHC (there are
some in the Netherlands I suppose) and the 1999 discussion is mainly about
his wife's will, and not the Dutch heirs (I should say: those who has to
receive a legacy) I am only curious about the 'typos': In Selyn's abstract
will his wifes family is not called 'Specht' and his brother-in-law is Jan
van Alen. Also the place Meerssen has to be Maarssen. Another is prof
Singuerdius of Leiden (but his name is also in the Dutch records often
changed).
I traced this Specht family here in Utrecht.
Have a nice weekend,
Frans Gouverneur
