Archives: Abstracts of Walloon and Huguenot Records from Dutch Churches


Some organization has gone through many of the records from old Dutch churches and listed information about Walloon and Huguenot refugees. These were abstracted onto index cards and then microfilmed. The actual index cards are at the Municipal Archives in Leiden, Holland. Microfilmed copies of these records can be obtained from several sources. For instance, I think they can be obtained from a local Family History Center (LDS church). The full record of each abstract would have to be viewed in the original in the Netherlands or in some copy of the original found somewhere else. For the most part, the abstract should list the important genealogical information available from the original. These records I looked at were often hard to read and copy. I may or may not have them right. I have put a star (*) next to words or phrases that I could not read well.

Baudin, Isaac et sa femme Margueritte Hes...selsion*
confession d'Armentières

Received as a member of the Church of Leiden. Isaac Baudin and his wife, Margaret H..., from Armentieres, France. Armentieres is just a few miles northwest of Lille.

Update: Johan Westra told me that he has yet to find this record, but given that Isaac came from Armentieres, he is very likely related to Pierre Boidin and Marye Pronye. This seems confirmed by the fact that during the later generations of Pierre´s descendants, the name Isaac appears several times. One of Pierre´s daughters was also named Marguerite. She might have been named after Isaac´s wife, making it likely that Isaac was possibly Pierre´s brother. Since Isaac appears in the Leiden records a year before the rest of the Bodeyn family is named in the records, it is possible he was there to set up a home for them. In several other genealogies of the Huguenot families, especially among the richer families, one of them was sent ahead to make provisions for the rest of the family to follow. This included thinks like housing, buying land, etc.

Bodin, Marguerite
confession d'Armentiere

Received as a member of the Church of Leiden. From Armentiere.

Update: Johan Westra told me that this woman is one of the daughters of Pierre Boidin and Marye Pronye. In the other records below, she is a bit difficult to identify. In her wedding ban from 1589 she is named as Margriete de Bode. Her husband to be is Andrije de Lapro, and as a witness her mother is named as Marye Prainye - possitively identifying her as one of Pierre Boidin´s daughters.

Bodyn, Martyne

Buckoy*

Update: Johan Westra sent me the following:

Research in France
- Issue 25, p. 53: LAWYS DE BUCKOY, young man from Turcoyn (Tourcoing), accompanied by Antony de Buckoy, his father. on December 31, 1588 to MARTIJNE BODIJN, young woman from Armentières, accompanied by Maria Pronye, her mother and Antonette Bodijn her sister (B, 77v).

This is Martijne and her first husband, Louis de Bucquoy. From this marriage Martijne had two sons: Jheremias de Bucquoy, and Jan "the elder" de Bucquoy. Jheremias became a Passementier (lace maker) like his maternal grandfather. He had several children. From his first marriage came his only son who survived, Jan "the younger" de Bucquoy. Jan "the younger" de Bucquoy was a lockmaker, and a mathmatics teacher and lecturer at Leiden university. Jheremias de Bucquoy is also named in my research in France:

- Issue 25, p. 53: JHEREMIAS DE BUCQUOY, young man from Leiden passementier, accompanied by Pieter Bodeyn, his grandfather and Olivier de Bucquoy, his uncle. On November 21, 1611 to PROONTGEN VAN DEN CAMERE, young woman from Turcoigen (Tourcoing), accompanied by Sara de Kan, Philippotte de Bane, her cousine (G, 129).

There are actually three families with the name de Bucquoy. In Leiden, at least one of these families, like the Bodeyn family, had lived in Canterbury before comming to Leiden. Given the simularity in the first names within these three families, they are probably all somehow related. The link below is the family of Louis de Bucquoy, Martijne´s first husband:

4 Leide 1591
Bodin, Marie
voyez (see)
Renard, Sara

Update: Johan Westra told me that this Marie Bodin is the sister of Pierre Boidin. In this abstract she is mentioned in relation to one of her daughters, Sara Renaerd. I also have some information on Marie Bodin in my research in France (see following). She appears as a witness in the wedding ban of one of her other daughters, Maria Renaerd.

Research in France
- Issue 35, p. 280 (marriage ban): Sjaeck Friesencourt, young man from Fornick (Tournai), accompanied by Noe Huy and Gabriel van de Does.
On December 28, 1590 to Maria Renaes, young woman from Armentieres, accompanied by Mary Bodeyn, her mother (B, 135v).

Of Pierre Boidin's siblings, Marye Bodeyn is the only one Johan can also place in England before she and her family settled in Leiden. Her younger children are said to have come from Canterbury. Marie Bodeyn had at least one son, Ghijse Renaerd, and several daughters. Through the wedding bans of her children and the baptism records of her grandchildren, Marie Bodeyn can clearly be recognized as a sister of Pierre Boidin. Marie Bodeyn's husband is not named in any of the Leiden records; so it seems she was already a widow when she arived in Leiden.

Through Marie Bodeyn's son-in-law Jacques "Sjaeck" de Frisencourt, the husband of her daughter Maria Renaerd, it is also possible to identify Pierre Boidin's other sister, Jacobmijne Bodeyn. Jacobmijne is named as the first wife of her husband Jan Robbelijn in the wedding ban of his second marriage. One of the witnesses named in the wedding ban is Jacques de Frisencourt. He is named as Jan Robbelijn's nephew. This, of course, should be nephew-in-law since he is the husband of Marie Renaerd, the niece of Jan Robbelijn's first wife Jacobmijne Bodeyn. This thus identifies her as a sister to both Marie Bodeyn and Pierre Boidin.

Further research into the Renaerd family is very difficult because of the appearance of a second Marie Renaerd in a wedding ban from arround 1600. She is by then the widow of a man named Jan Hennaer and is married at this point to a man named Jan Henkaer (Johan at first thought that the name of her deceased husband and her actual husband must have gotten mixed up. Then again both her husbands might have been cousins or something). This Marie Renaerd is clearly not the same as Marie Bodeyn's daughter Marie Renaerd because by then she was still married to Jacques Frisencourt. However this second Marie Renaerd did seem to be closely related to Marie Bodeyn's family - given the fact that several family members of her second husband Jan Henkaer, appear as witnesses in the various wedding bans and baptism records of Mary Bodeyn's children and grandchildren. The appearance of these relatives of Jan Henkaer makes it extremely difficult to distinguish the Renaerds from the Henkaers given the numerous spelling variations of both last names. These last names are so simular that it's sometimes almost impossible to tell them apart. The second marriage of this second Maria Renaerd did not last very long. In 1602 she is married again to a man named Guilaume Herre. Despite the fact that Jan Henkaer died, his relatives seemed to remain in close contact with Marie Bodeyn's family.

This was a mystery which actually took Johan several years to figure out. The answer is that the second Maria Renaerd (mentioned above) is actually none other than Marie Bodeyn, she herself appearing in both her second and third wedding bans under the name of her first husband. So Jan Hennaer and Jan Henkaer aren't cousins. Jan Henaer is Marie Bodeyn's first husband Jan Renaerd, and he is the father of all of her children.

Further research into Marie Bodeyn's descendants gets even more confusing. In a baptism record of one of the children of Jacques the Frisencourt and his first wife Marie Renaerd, Jacques himself is named as Jacques Renaerd, appearing under his wife's last name - rather then under his own. After the death of his first wife, Jacques eventually remarried, and from both his marriages he had several children, all daughters. Despite that, many of his descendants were still named de Frisencourt. Almost all of his daughters had some, if not all, of their children baptised under the name "de Frisencourt" rather then under the names of their respective husbands (???).

5 Gehuwd te Leiden in de Pieterskerk den 22 sept 1591 (married at Leiden in St. Peter's Church)
Bodyn, Abraham van Armentiers (from Amentieres)
Laus, Maycken weduwe van Pieter Lau (widow of Pieter Lau)
aouyet: 6 sept.

Update: From the original in Leiden, I also found out that the witnesses for Abraham were Bouderoyn or Boudewijn Golaersn/Holaert and Jan Libaer, his friends. Maycken's witnesses were Willemtgen Jans and Griete Verelst, her friends (B, 159v). The date of September 6 above must be when the marriage ban was first published.

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 5, 11 and 23 concern Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn. Johan names him "the younger" because there is an earlier Abraham named in the Leiden records.

Research in France

ABRAHAM BODEYN, young man from Armentières, accompanied by Johan Huglou and Pieter van Lankere, his friends.
On January 16, 1590 to BARBARA GLORIENSE, born at Tourkoyn (Tourcoing), widow of Geraert Vingenkoer, accompanied by Tanneken Pieters and Gilijne Gillis, her friends (B, 118v).

ABRAHAM BODIJN, young man from Armentiéres, accompanied Boudewijn Holaert and Jan Libaer, his friends.
On September 6, 1591 to MAYCKEN LAUS, widow of Pieter Lau, accompanied by Willemtgen Jans and Griete Verelst, her friends (B, 159v). Johan said that the first husband of Maycken Laus, Pieter Lau is possibly named "le Leu," or "la Lau," a family closely related to the Boidin families from Armentieres. (Both forms of the name le Leu/la Lau are also used in the Armentieres region for one and the same family.

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 8, 9, 10, 21, 27 and 103 all relate to Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn and his wife Marya Couseijns. Johan will discuss this family in a separate document since Pieter's story is quite involved.

10 Gehuwd te Leiden aang in de _____ Kerk den 25 June 1594
Bodeyn / Pieter / van Armientiers
Couseijn/ Marij / Sautrey

Married at Leiden. Records 9 and 10 appear to be the same, except that one is in French and the other in Dutch. I think this family is also referred to in record 103. And there is more about this couple in the Archive Room under the section called "The Netherlands / Holland."

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 8, 9, 10, 21, 27 and 103 all relate to Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn and his wife Marya Couseijns. Johan will discuss this family in a separate document since Pieter's story is quite involved.

Johan did mention that though Marya Couseijns is said to have come from Sautrey here, that should probably be read as Canterbury. In some later records, she is said to have come from Sandwich. That is, however, the place where her husband's family came from. Marya probably came from Canterbury like most of her siblings. The Couseijn/Cosyn family belonged to the first eighteen families who founded the Canterbury Huguenot Colony.

11 Mariés à Leide 10 Septembre 1594
Boedijn - Abraham
et Mailone Martijne

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 5, 11 and 23 concern Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn. Johan names him "the younger" because there is an earlier Abraham named in the Leiden records.

Research in France

ABRAHAM BOEDIJN, young man from Armentiéres, accompanied by Pieter van Lancker and Jan Liebaert, his friends.
On September 17, 1594 to MARTIJNE MILONE, born at Armentiéres, widow of Jacob Verbrugge, accompanied by Janneken le More, her sister and Margriete Boedel, her friend (C, 92v).

Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn, was married three times within four years. His second wedding ban actually names him as the widower of Barbara Gloriense (poss. Glorieux, a family also related to the Boidin families from Armentieres). And in his third wedding ban he is named as the widower of Maycken Laus. Given the year in which he is first married, he might be a son of Pierre Boidin and Marye Pronye. However, Johan believes one of the witnesses named in his third wedding ban, Margriete Boedel* is actually Margeurite Bodeyn. That would make her his sister in which case the wedding ban probably would have said so. Next to that, his three wedding bans are the only records in Leiden in which he is named.

That brought Johan to one of the other wedding bans in my research in France:

YSAACK BODEIJN, born at Armentières, widower of Margriete Meweppele, tondeur de drap, accompanied by Christoffel Bodeyn, his uncle and Franchois Chombaer, son maitre.
On November 8, 1614 to PAECKE BOUSGE, born at St.-Amand, widow of Jan du Chere, accompanied by Mary de Roubaeys and Mary Serjans, her friends (H, 38v).

Johan believes this may be Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn's son, as a witness in Ysaack's second wedding ban (his uncle being Christoffel Bodeyn). This is Christoffel "Stoffel" Bodeyn who appears first in the Leiden records in 1595 when he is married to Christijntgen Martensdr. As a witnes in Stoffel's wedding ban a man named Jan Liewaert appears. He is probably the same as the Jan Libaer and Jan Liebaert who are named in the second and third wedding bans of Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn. As another witness in Stoffel's wedding ban his father is named as Abraham [the elder] Bodeyn. Martijne Bodeyn also apeared as a witnes to the bride (Christijntgen Martensdr mentioned above) in Stoffels wedding ban.

Putting all these wedding bans together, it's very likely that Christoffel "Stoffel" Bodeyn and Abraham "the younger" are brothers, both sons of Abraham "the elder" Bodeyn. And Margeurite and Martijne Bodeyn, who appear as witnesses in relation to these brothers are probably their cousins. This would make Abraham "the elder" a brother to Pierre, Isaac, Marie and Jacobmijne Bodeyn. Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn probably died before the second marriage of his son Ysaack Bodeyn. Isaac was likely named after his father's paternal uncle Isaac which would explain why Abraham isn't mentioned in any further records in Leiden. It would also be why it is his uncle Stoffel Bodeyn who appaers in Ysaack's wedding ban and not his father Abraham "the younger" Bodeyn.

So there we have all of the siblings of the first generation of the Bodeyn family from Haerlemstraet in Leiden. Johan could thus far find: Pierre, Abraham, Isaac, Marie, and Jacobmijne. One conclusion Johan drew from all this is that there is a striking resemblance in the first names of the first Bodeyns in Leiden and the first Bodines in Staten Island. *Johan researched the Boedel name and as far as he can tell there is no such name in the Leiden records.

12 Reçu membre de l'Eglise d' Amsterdam le 9 Avril 1597
Bodyn Martyme Vefeu de Louis des Buequses.
par témoignage de l'église de Seyde

Received as a member of the Church of Amsterdam, widow of Louis, by witness of the church of Sedan. I'm guessing that "Seyde" is Sedan. Sedan is not too far southeast of Lille and was a former Protestant stronghold in France. The Duke of Sedan offered protection to Protestants fleeing persecution.

Update: Johan Westra told me that this is the Martijne from record #3 above. After the death of her first husband Louis de Bucquoy, she moved to Amsterdam. This was probably in preparation of her seccond marriage. So Seyde is not Sedan, but Leiden. The curious thing about this abstract is the last name "des Buequses." In the Armentieres region, there are a couple of marriages between the Boidin family and a family named de Becquses. This was sometime in the latter part of the 17th century.

Udpate: Boudewijn Wegner told me that Narden is most probably the village of Naarden, near Utrecht (in the Netherlands).

14 1598
Bodeyn, Martyntje
voyez (see)
Ekerdeseg Roeloffez [Roeloffeson]

Roeloffeson is a name related to the Bodines in America.

Update: Johan Westra sent me the following:

Research in France
- Issue 103, p. 131 (marriage): Henrick Roeloffsz., young man from Dordrecht, accompanied by Gabriel Hanadous and Peter Bodeyn, his friends.

On October 3, 1598 to Martiyntgen Bodeyn, born at Armentieres widow of Loys de Hucquoo, demeurant a Amsterdam, accompanied by Mary Proni, her mother and Antoinette Bodeyn, her sister (D, 490).

This is again Martijne (from record #3 above) and her second husband Henryck Roeloffsz. The couple settled in Amsterdam; even though they were married in Leiden. Some other researcher added a last name for Henryck. Johan believes it was something like Schouwen, but he will have to check a hardcopy for the actual name.

15 Reçu membre de l'Eglise de Leide à la Cène de Pentecot 1601
Bodin, Jonas

I think this means that he was received as a member at Pentecost supper.

Update: Johan Westra told me that he has yet to find this record, but this Jonas who he names Jonas "the elder" Bodeyn appears as a witness in a couple of baptism records relating to the Bodeyn family in the Leiden records. Jonas's relationship to the rest of the Bodeyn family is not specifically given in those records, but given that Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn also had a son named Jonas, this Jonas "the elder" Bodeyn is probably a brother to Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn and a son of Pierre Boidin and Marya Pronye. He is not named in 1587 when the Bodeyn family is said to have arrived in Leiden, but this might be because he was still a minor. In fact the abstract above in which he is received as a member of the Walloon church might indicate that he came of age and as such was received as a full member of the Walloon congregation at that point. After 1603, he is no longer named in the Leiden records. Other than a couple of Jonas Pieterszns who were both buried somewhere at the beginning of the 17th Century, he might have become a victim of the plague that struck Leiden around that time.

This allows us to make an addition to the family. Jonah says that one of the records in which Jonas "the elder" appears is a baptism record of Margriete Roelloffsz, the daughter of Martijne Bodeyn and Henryck Roeloffsz. Along with Jonas are three others: Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn, Marye Hanedouche (a sister of Gabriël Hanedouche, one of Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn's bothers-in-law, married to Pieter's other sister Anthoinette), and Esther Couseyn (sister to Marye Couseyns). These three are named as witnesses and that would more or less confirm the realtionship as Johan described above.

16 Leyde Aº 1602
Bodeyn, Isaach
voyez (see)
Abraham, Jan

Update: Johan Westra told me that this abstract concerns the wedding ban of Pyroontgen (Pierronne) Collaerts and Jan Abrahamsz, her second husband. She was by then the widow of Isaach Bodeyn, or better said, she thought she was a widow since the marriage had been annulled. Her first husband was actually still alive.

Given that Pyroontgen’s second husband Jan Abrahamsz was a soldier by profession, it's likely to assume that her first husband was also a soldier. He had probably been missing-in-action for some time for his wife to assume that he had died.

Isaach Bodeyn is not named in any further Leiden records and it isn’t certain if he returned to Leiden. Given the way his last name is spelled “Bodeyn,” he might be related to the Bodeyn family from Haerlemstraet, but lacking any further records he remains a non-connectable. .

Baudin, M Pierre* et sa femme
par témoignage de l'église d' Hanauw

Received as a member, Pierre Baudin and his wife, by witness of the Church of Hanauw.

Update: Johan Westra told me that this abstract probably relates to abstracts 19, 22, and 26. The "M" in front of Pierre's name probably stands for Meester "Master." In the actual wedding ban of abstract 19, his marriage to Magdeleine de Henno, he is named a schoolmaster from France. That would probably explain the "M" in front of his name in this abstract. He is also named the widower of Marye Berro (the unnamed wife in this abstract). Finally, in abstract 22 his marriage to Pierronne Lesfure, he is named the widower of Magdeleine de Henno.

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 17, 19, 22, and 26 are probably all related. The "M" in front of Pierre's name in abstract 17 probably stands for Meester "Master." In the actual wedding ban of this abstract, his marriage to Magdeleine de Henno, he is named a schoolmaster from France. That would probably explain the "M" in front of his name in abstract 17. In this abstract, he is also named the widower of Marye Berro (the unnamed wife in abstract 17). Finally, in abstract 22 his marriage to Pierronne Lesfure, he is named the widower of Magdeleine de Henno.

Vader Bodyn Jan
Moeder Loukas dr. Styntje
Kind Uemiik

Baptized in the old (?) church at Amsterdam on, father, mother, child.
Update: Boudewijn Wegner told me that Uemiik is neither a Dutch name nor a French name. It must be something else (or my spelling was way off).

Update: Johan Westra told me that he didn’t do much research on the earlier Bodines from Amsterdam since they don’t seem to belong to one family. Most of them seem to be non-connectable. However there is a possibility that at least some of them are related to the Bodeyn family from Leiden. In those days, there was a lake “the Haarlemmermeer,” which connected Leiden to both Amsterdam and Haarlem. And traveling over water was in those days the most convenient way to travel. Besides that, some members of the Bodeyn family seem to have lived in Amsterdam and Haarlem at least for a while. The first resident family to settle in Amsterdam is made up of the descendants of Isaac Boidin and Rachel Cautez. They settled in Amsterdam and later also in Rotterdam. This happened after the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes.

The child of Jan Bodyn and Christine “Styntje” Loukasdr. who is baptized, is probably named Annemiek, a girl’s name which is derived from Anne Marije or Anne Marijke.

21 Baptisé le 17 Aout 1608 à Leide.
Bodin - Jonas.
fils de Pierre
et de ----

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 8, 9, 10, 21, 27 and 103 all relate to Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn and his wife Marya Couseijns. Johan will discuss this family in a separate document since Pieter's story is quite involved.

This record is Jonas Pietersz. Bodeyn, the youngest son of Pieter "the elder" Bodeyn and Marya Couseijns. In fact his baptism record is one of only two of the baptism records of Pieter's children which still can be found in the Leiden records. The only other is his older sister Judith Bodeyn baptised in Leiden in 1603. Of the older children, the baptism records don't seem to exist anymore.

Jonas Pietersz. Bodeyn became a "Bierschooier," a wholesaler of beer. He was married to Elisabeth van der Broucke and the couple had one son baptised in 1637, Pieter Jonasz. Bodeyn. Jonas Pietersz. Bodeyn must have died shortly after the birth of his son because in 1638 Elisabeth van der Broucke appears before the "Vierschaer," a local court for civil matters. In the court record, Elizabeth is named as the widow of Jonas Pietersz. Bodeyn.

Johan doesn't know what the court case was about, but the opposing party was Jan Bastiaansz. van Mieris, the father of Frans van Mieris a famous Dutch painter and apprentice of Gerard Dou who was himself an apprentice of Rembrandt van Rhijn.

22 Mariés à Leiden le 20 Mars 1611
Bodin, Pierre
et Lesfure Peronne

Update: Johan Westra told me that this Pierre Baudin who is received as a member of the Walloon church with his wife is probably the same as the Pierre Bodin who is married to Magdeleine Henno in 1607 (abstract 19). His second wedding ban (abstract 19) from the marriage to Magdeleine Henno states he is a schoolmaster from France. By then, he is the widower of Marye Berro who is probably the wife meant in abstract 17. The Pierre Bodins from abstracts 19 and this one are one and the same. Pierre Bodin is named the widower of Magdeleine Henno in his third wedding ban from his marriage (abstract 22) to his third wife Perronne Lesfure in 1611.

Pierre Bodin’s third wife, Perronne Lesfure, is probably the same as Pierronne the wife of Pierre Baudin who is named in abstract 26.

Johan said he couldn’t find the wedding ban of Susanne Bodeyn and her husband Paschier "the Younger" Barbary; however, the couple have at least four children baptized in Leiden. Paschier is by profession a chaudronier (metalworker, kettlemaker). He is the brother of Noë "the Younger" Barbary who married Susanne Bodeyn’s sister Marie Bodeyn.

Update: Boudewijn Wegner told me that Middelburg is the provincial capital of the province of Zeeland. He also believes that the first Protestant Church for Huguenot refugees from France was indeed formed there.

Bodin, Antoinette

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 29 and 32 both refer to a daughter of Pieter "the Elder" Bodeyn and Marye Couseijns, Anthoinette "the Younger" Bodeyn. She was married in 1625 to Pieter Vergenst. The couple had several children baptized in Leiden. After Anthoinette "the Younger" Bodeyn died, her widower Pieter Vergenst was eventually remarried to Magdeleentgen (van) Peenen. She was the sister of Marcus (van) Peenen, who was one of the neighbors of the Bodeyn family in the Haerlemstraet area.

The curious thing about this abstract is the way in which the last name of Anthoinette’s husband is spelled: Pergens. The P in Pergens is probably a wrong translation from the handwritten Capitol letter V, which was written with a large curl at the end. I found this name Pergens or rather Vergens once before, in relationship to another Bodin family who moved to the Netherlands and later to England. One of the daughters of this family was also married to a husband from the Pergens or Vergens family.

Said Bodin family was in fact one of the branches of the Bodin-Cambrensis family, also known as the de Bodin-de-Fontaines line of that family. The ancestor of this de Bodin-de-Fontaines line was a Jean de Bodin, Seigneur de Fontaines. He was the oldest son, from the first marriage of Jean III de Bodin, Seigneur de Villiers, and he is often mistakenly named as Jean IV, this is however incorrect.

Jean III also had a younger son named Jacquemart de Bodin-de-Villiers from one of his later marriages. This Jacquemart was married to Issabelle de Coullieres and by her had a son also named Jean who would eventually inherit the titles from both his parents, thus becoming Jean IV de Bodin-de-Villiers et de Coullieres.

Either Jean de Bodin Seigneur de Fontaines, or his son who was also named Jean, forfeited his right to his inheritance by choosing a career in the cloth-working industry. Becoming a Huguenot and selling the family Estate of "de Fontaines," this family eventually fled by way of the Netherlands to England where one of the descendants eventually was granted an English Seigneurs or "Lords," title; although Johan doesn’t remember the name of the English Estate. The information on the Bodin-de-Fontaines line came from one of the Seigneur’s later Counts "de-Sars-de Solomon," from somewhere in the 18th century. His Estate was one of the meighboring estates of the Bodin-de-Mainville Estate which is situated close to Lille/Rijsel and Armentieres. This Seigneur (or Count) de-Sars-de-Solomon, was also a genealogist and coat of arms researcher. He left an extensive volume of handwritten genealogies of the noble families from the North of France and from the Southern Netherlands. Even though the genealogical info he provides isn’t very detailed, Johan still believes him to be a reliable source given that he was an actual neighbor.

Update: Boudewijn Wegner told me that "Achterb burg wal geass mes Aelhie Coppen" has to be "Achterburgwal, geass(issteerd) met Aeltie Coppen." The Achterburgwal was where she lived. Aeltie Coppens was the person who assisted her, but it is not mentioned if they were related. The word Grace undoubtedly has to be Grave. And "Arypwerleen Walenpad x (?)" must be "Antwerpen, Walenpad." This would mean that he came from Grave, Antwerpen. In any case, at the time of his wedding he was living at the Walenpad in Amsterdam (coincidentally Walen means Wallonian). The entire text would then be:

The Barbary or Barbry family remained closely related to the Bodeyn family, appearing as witnesses in several baptism records and wedding bans of the extended Bodeyn family. In fact, the Barbary family was already closely related to the Boidin family from the time they lived in the Armentieres region. And they would remain closely related to one another. Marriages between both families from that region are recorded up until the 19th century.

Bodin, Sara fille de Pierre
accompagné de sa mère (Registre des Esxoutons & Trespondans, 1627-1665)

Update: Johan Westra told me that this Sara Bodeyn is yet again one of the daughters of Pieter "the Elder" Bodeyn and Marya Couseijns. She was married in 1629 to Jan Blondeel. Jan Blondeel was a cousin of Sara Bodeyn’s sister-in-law Maeycken van Hamme. Both of these Bodeyn in-laws were descendants through their maternal line of the Sette family. This couple had several children baptized in Leiden, and by those records there, the relationship between Sara Bodeyn and her family can be proven. Like the Bodeyn, Hanedouche and the du Buckuoy families, the Blondeel (de Blondel) was also a Huguenot family of probable noble descent. And like with the other families, again in this case no actual link can be made between these Leiden families and their French or Walloon noble ancestry. However, the noble family "de Blondel," was related to the Bodin Cambrensis family. Since I am already on the subject of the relationship of the Bodin Cambrensis family, I might as well give some more information on the du Bucquoy family. The genealogy I already sent you was only the line of Louis du Bucquoy. There is, however, a more detailed genealogy online. Again it is in Dutch, but I’m sending it anyway: http://www.at16home.demon.nl/BEKOOY.htm

This genealogy names three main branches of this family that settled in Leiden: Line A are the descendants of an Olivier du Bucquoy from the Tourcoing and Armentieres region; Line B came to Leiden from the Mouveaux and Bondu region; And lastly Line C are the descendants of a Phillipe du Bucquoy who also originaly came from the Tourcoing and Armentieres region, but later came to Leiden by way of the Canterbury Huguenot Colony in England.

Line A and C are probably related. Line A (this is again the line of Louis du Bucquoy) is said to have descended from a Olivier du Bucquoy. Olivier is, however, fictitious. His name is based on the fact that both his sons Anthony and Arnou have a son named Olivier. However, I later found Olivier’s wedding ban in the Leiden records and chronologically he cannot possibly be the father of Anthony and Arnou. In the wedding ban, the name of Olivier’s father is given as Phillipe. So it seems more likely that Olivier was a brother to Anthony and Arnou. And Phillipe du Bucquoy was the actual ancestor of Line A.

In the preface of this genealogy, the author also discusses the possible noble descent of the du Bucquoy family; although, he does note that he did no further research in France. He states that the possible noble descent of the du Bucquoy family is unlikely given that the noble family du Bucquoy only became Counts of Bucquoy somewhere in the 17th century. Although he is correct in the fact the the du Bucquoys only became counts in the late 17th century, before they became counts, the family were already Seigneurs du Bucquoy. The actual family name is "de Longueval," a family also closely related to the Bodin Cambrensis family. This "de Longueval" family also named themselves "du Bucquoy" as far back as the 15th Century. Next to that in one specific line the first names of Phillipe and Olivier do appear in the de Longeuval family. However, like with the other families, again in the case of the Leiden du Bucquoy family no actual link can be made to its Noble French ancestry. http://racineshistoire.free.fr/LGN/PDF/Longueval.pdf

37 Mariés à Leiden le. 2 Juillet, 1628
Bodijn, Pierre
et Van Baumie Marie

Update: Johan Westra told me that abstracts 37, 44 and 45 belong together. This is Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn, one of the sons of Pieter "the Elder" Bodeyn and Marya Couseijns. In abstract 37, he is married to his first wife Maeycken van Hamme. In the Abstract, Maeycken is named van Baumie. That is the French form of the van Hamme name. (Hamme is a town in Flanders. In Dutch, it is named Hamme; in French, it is named Beaumie).

Both abstracts 44 and 45 which happen later on, are the baptism records of two of Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn’s daughters from his marriage to Maeycken van Hamme. Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn was later married to Elisabeth Jansdr. (poss. Marlier - this last name was added by another researcher to their wedding ban). From both his marriages Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn had several children; however, not all of the baptism records can be found. So it is uncertain who the actual mother is of several of his children.

After his marriage to Elisabeth Jansdr., Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn left his previous profession as a ribbon weaver and became an inn and tavern keeper. Together with her first husband, Elisabeth Jansdr had acquired the tavern from the estate of Isaac "the Elder" de Joudreville and his wife Magdalena du Pree. The tavern was then named "de drie Haringen," (The Three Herrings) and was known as one of the best in Leiden. By the time Pieter "the Younger" and Elisabeth Jansdr ran the tavern, it was named "Het Schild van Frankrijk" (The Shield of France). Pieter "the younger" Bodeyn’s decision to change his profession might have something to do with the fact that his children from his second marriage to Elisabeth Jansdr. were excluded from the inheritance of their paternal grandparents Pieter "the Elder" Bodeyn, and Marya Couseijns.

Johan wrote me that the info regarding this tavern they owned came from Jan Bedijn (the genealogist mentioned in other records on this page). Jan Bedijn placed this info on the website of the Tetterode family. One of the members of said Tetterode family acted as guardian for Isaac "the Younger" and Maria de Jouderville, the children of Isaac "the Elder" de Jouderville and Magdalena de Pree, the previous owners of the tavern. Isaac "the Younger" de Jouderville would later become the second and, according to some, one of the most talented apprentices (Gerard Dou being the first apprentice) of Rembrandt van Rhijn. Rembrandt lived around the corner from the tavern, in the Webbesteegh in Leiden. Jan Bedijn also stated on said website that he, and as such the Bedijn family from Noordwijk, was a descendant of Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn and Elisabeth Jansdr. That connection, however, does neeed more verification.

It is not certain that Jan Bedijn is actually a descendant of Pieter "the younger" Bodeyn and Elisabeth Jansdr. If that were the case, then the Pieter Bedeijn (born circa 1640) who is named as the ancestor of the Bedijn family from Warmond and later from Noordwijk, would be a son of Pieter "the Younger" and Elisabeth Jansdr. That would mean he is the same Pieter as Pieter "Pietersz" Bodeyn who is named in abstracts 91, 95, 98 and 99. Because that Pieter who is married to Jannetgen Willemsdr is actually the son of Pieter "the younger" Bodeyn. Although it is not certain who his mother is (either Maeycken van Hamme or Elisabeth Jansdr), the fact that Jan Bedijn thinks that Peter is a son of Pieter "the younger" Bodeyn and Elisabeth Jansdr, is based on the fact that this Pieter "Pietersz" Bodeyn named his oldest daughter Elisabeth. However his baptism record can't be found, so Pieter "Pietersz" Bodeyn might be a son of Maeycken van Hamme in which case his mother died, when he was still a child and he would have been raised by his stepmother Elisabeth Jansdr.

When Johan first found the Bedeijn genealogy online, the first generation was not as detailed as in the version he sent me recently. The ancestor was then still named as being Jan (Pietersz) Bedeijn, who was married to Grietje Leendertsdr (van Rhijn). And only two of their sons were named, Pieter their eldest son and Leendert their youngest son. The name of Jan (Pietersz) Bedeijn was then still fictitious. And based on the fact that the youngest son Leendert was named after his maternal grandfather, the author concluded that their oldest son Pieter would have been named after his paternal grandfather, who in that case would also be named Pieter.

Apparently, the baptism records of the other children of Jan (Pietersz) Bedeijn and Grietje Leendertsdr (van Rhijn) seem to have proven this conclusion. And the author has put Pieter Bedeijn (born circa 1640) as the new ancestor of this line.

The information about the Jouderville family and their connection to Rembrandt van Rhijn also came from Jan Bedijn (the genealogist). There is an implication that Rembrandt van Rhijn and Grietje Leendertsdr (van Rhijn) were somehow related.

There are several different van Rhijn families named in the Leiden records and although these families may have been somehow related, Rembrandt and Grietje Leendertsdr both came from different families.

Johan does not believe that Pieter Bedeijn (born circa 1640), and Pieter "Pietersz" Bodeyn (the son of Pieter "the Younger" Bodeyn) were the same person. Pieter Bedeijn's (born circa 1640), son Jan (Pietersz) Bedeijn was born arround 1660. That can be derived from the fact that in his wedding ban from his marriage to Grietje Leendertsdr in 1683 he is said to have been 23 years old. Pieter Pietersz Bodeyn and Jannetgen Willemsdr had their children born from 1668 onward making it unlikely they are the parents of Jan (Pietersz.) Bedeijn.

Jan Bedijn (the genealogist) was probably unaware of the fact that there was another Pieter, who might be his actual ancestor - Pieter Jonasz Bodeyn (abstract 21), the son of Jonas "the Younger" Bodeyn and Elisabeth van der Broucke. He was born in 1637. Given that year, he might very well be the ancestor of the later Bedijn family from Warmond (a small town just North of Leiden) and Noordwijk. That might also explain why the Bedijn family came from Warmond. It's possible that Elisabeth van der Broucke, after the death of her first husband Jonas Pietersz Bodeyn, remarried and moved with her infant son to Warmond. That also explains why she doesn't appear in the Leiden records anymore other than a couple of times as a witness in the baptism records and wedding bans from the extended Bodeyn family.

Update: Johan Westra told me that this is Michelle Bodeyn and her husband Jacques del 'Espierre, (Originaly: "de les Pierre"). He is not sure about abstract 42. Comparing it to the other abstracts suggests this is a wedding ban or marriage record; however, the abstract doesn’t actually say so. If this is indeed a wedding ban or marriage record, then Michelle Bodeyn probably belonged to the same generation as the children of Pieter "the Elder" Bodeyn and Marya Couseijns. And she was probably one of their other daughters. In which case Michelle was probably named after her paternal aunt who was also named Michelle, and who was named amongst the members of the Bodeyn family who arrived in Leiden in 1587.

Then again, the Michelle Bodeyn named in abstracts 42 and 47 might be one and the same as the Michelle who is named in 1587. In which case she and her husband possibly returned to Leiden to join the Michelle family later in Leiden. That would have been when they were already in their 70's (assuming that she must have been an adult when she was first named in 1587).

When the couple came to Leiden in 1634, they probably came from Haarlem. The del 'Espierre or de les Pierre family came, like the Bodeyn family, from the Huguenot colony in Canterbury to the Netherlands. And although there are a couple of del 'Espierre named in the Leiden record, the family wasn’t a resident family in Leiden. They did however settle in Haarlem where they did actually become a resident family.

In fact, the second baptism record, in which the name of the child is not given, might be the baptism record of Jan Jansen Bodijn who has a daughter named Jannitje baptized in record 80. She was married to his step-sister Mary Pouvre. See info at abstract 80 when that becomes available.

Update: Johan Westra told me that he could not find the records for abstracts 46, 51 and 65. This might be Susanne Bodeyn from abstract 24; however, Johan found no connection to the Clerabes or Gaudiau names. And although he did find the Jieslijn (Gieselijn) family in a couple of records regarding the Bodeyn family, they were not related. So these probably are just random baptisms or wedding bans in which she appeared as a witness.

Bodain Christoffe
et Siber Anne

Update: Johan Westra told me that this is Christoffel "the Younger" Bodeyn. He is most likely a son of Stoffel Bodeyn and Cristijntgen Martensdr. who he has already discussed in abstracts 5 and 11 (although he found no records confirming this). From the beginning of Johan's research he believed both of these Christoffels to belong to the ancestry of Nicolas Boidin and Francoise Favarcque, the ancestors of the later Boedijn family from Delft, the Hague and Hoorn, since the first name Christoffel is one of the leading first names in said Boedijn family. However he only recently discovered that the name Christoffel also appears in the maternal ancestry of the Boedijn family. So this connection is not conclusive.

This is actualy Christoffel Bodeyn's seccond marriage. He was by then the widower of Jeanne le Jeune. This second marriage was suposed to take place some three years earlier in Leiden. The first wedding ban of Christoffel Bodeyn and his second wife Anne Siber was published in 1635 in Leiden; however, that marriage never took place. It was reported that Anne Siber's first husband was still alive and the marriage was annulled. This earlier wedding ban does however give the actual last name of Christoffel Bodeyn's second wife. And she is not named Anne Siber, but Anne Liber or rather Anne Libaer which makes it likely she is related to Jan Libaer. He appeared in the wedding bans of Abraham "the Younger" Bodeyn. Anne might possibly be his daughter which more or less confirms that there is a relationship between Abraham "the Younger" Bodeyn, Stoffel Bodeyn, and this later Christoffle Bodeyn.

Christoffel "the Younger" Bodeyn is also named in a couple of other records in Leiden. First he is named as a witness in the marriage ban of Salomon Berthout. Christoffel is named as Salomon's brother-in-law. However, the last name of Salomon's bride is not the same as Christoffel's last name nor of either of Christoffel's wives. So Salomon probably was married before to a sister of Christoffel who is not named in the wedding ban. An earlier record in which Salomon appears seems to give the name of his first wife. He is named in a random baptism record along with another witness named Mary Poteyn. Poteyn should problably be read as Bodeyn, and it is likely she is the unnamed sister of Christoffel Bodeyn.

Christoffel is also named in a random baptism record from somewhere in the 1630s. Another witness in that record, Cathalijne le Ron, is named who Johan believes to be the same as Cathalijn le Rou (le Roy), the first wife of Jan Bodeyn (i.e., Jean Boudeijn or Jan Jansz Bodeyn) where, in abstract 80, he is named as the father of daughter Jannitje Bodijn. The mother is not named. This Jan Bodeyn (or Jean Boudeijn) was later married to a woman named Jenne Dutry. And Jan Bodeyn's son from his first marriage to Cathalijne le Rou/le Roy was married to his stepsister Mary Pouvre, daughter of Jenne Dutry his stepmother and her first husband Valentijn Pouvre.

Johan said that when one takes all these records into consideration, it is likely that the Jan Bodeyn mentioned in the paragraph above (i.e., Jean Boudeijn) was a brother to Christoffel Bodeyn and to Mary Bodeyn the wife of Salomon Berthout. All three of them would have been children of Stoffel Bodeyn and Christijntgen Martensdr whom Johan has already discussed in abstract 11.

It would be translated as "[living at the] Weblaen, gezel." The word Gezel would be his profession, but the text seems to be incomplete. And "Sedijn" is certainly Sedan.

It was Quirinus who was the ancestor of the present day Boedijn families from Delft, the Hague in the province of Zuid Holland, and Hoorn in the province of Noord Holland."

This could mean that Maertje and Ferdinandus were going to marry. A marriage was always announced in church three weeks before the actual date of marriage. This announcement is known as "aantekenen." The last line means "Look at the file of Ferdinand Nieuwerkeneke."
Update: Boudewijn Wegner told me that "San Laurens" has to be "Sint Laurens." And "Nieuwerkeneke ferdinandus" is probably "Nieuwerkerke, Ferdinandus."

Update: Johan Westra told me that regarding abstracts 38 and 79, he did not do any research in Gouda. However, these abstracts obviously belong together since the first name Phillipe does not appear in the Bodeyn family from the Haerlemstraet. Johan does not think they are related. So both these Phillipe Bodin´s remain non-connectable.

80 Gedoopt te Leiden in de Hooglandsche Kerk den 13 Feb: 1661
Bodijn / Jannitje /
vader Jan Jansen
moeder _________

This is an interesting entry. Baptised at Leiden in the Hooglandsche Church on Feb 13, 1661: Janet Bodine, father Jan Jansen, mother not mentioned. See notes for record 82.

Update: D.E. Boekee checked the original record and sent the following: Hooglandsche Kerk; 13 Feb 1661; child: Jannitje; father: Jan Jansz [son of Jan] Bodijn; mother: not mentioned; sponsors: Joris Pietersz, Philips Mereuw, Jannitje Jans, Susanna Isaacx.

D.E. also thinks it likely that Janet's mother was Mary Poure/Pouvre. He bases this on a marriage record between a Johannes Jansz Bodeijn, born Leiden, and Marij Poere, born Valenchijn (Valenciennes in France). This marriage took place on May 6, 1660 in the Walloon Church. The bride was sponsored by Jenne Dutry, her mother. This is just a guess, however.

Jenne Dutry also had married a Jean Boudeijn, widower of Cathalijne le Rou, on June 27, 1657 in the Walloon Church. "Jenne Deutery" as her name was written in the marriage record, was the widow of Valenthijn Pouvre.

I guess it is possible that Mary died before Janets' baptism or else she was just not mentioned. If she had died, then maybe the Sara Stof mentioned in record #82 below could be the second wife of this Jan Bodijn. Again, these are only wild guesses.

Or it's possible that Sara Stof of record #82 is the missing mother here. There is no evidence, however, that the Jan Bodijn's of records #80 and #82 are the same person.

Update: Johan Westra will have more to say on this record later on, but he does want to note that one curious thing about this abstract. Jenne Dutry, the second wife of Jan Bodeyn (Jean Boudeijn), is also named Deutery or Deuterie. That name is also the maiden name of the mother of Jean Bodin de Angers (the philosopher) whose parents were named Guilaume Bodin and Cathalijne Deuterie.

82 Gedoopt te Leiden in de Hooglandsche Kerk den 7 Mei 1662
Bodein / Sara /
vader Jan
moeder Stof / Sara /

This is another interesting entry. Baptised at Leiden in the Hooglandsche Church on May 7, 1662: Sarah Bodine, father John, mother Sarah Stof. I think this Jan may be the same as the Jan Jansen in record 80, but that is only a wild guess. John Bodine of Bethune supposedly named his first son John and his first daughter Sarah. Following Dutch naming customs, his parents would probably be named John and Sarah. And John Bodine was also born about 1662. This would put him in the right time frame with this John and Sarah's children. Sara Stof would appear to be the daughter of a Christoffel since Stof does not otherwise appear in the records.

D.E. Boekee checked the original record in the Leiden Municipal Archives and sent this: Hooglandsche Kerk; 7 may 1662; child: Sara; father: Jan Bodijn; mother: Sara Stof; sponsors: Pieter de Vos, Sara Simons, Anna Robertsdr [daughter of Robert].

See record #80 for some speculation on this record.

Here is another interesting family. Peter Bodine and his wife Janet Williamsdaughter have several children baptised between now and 1674. All of these children have names that are common among the Bethune Bodines in America: Elizabeth 1668; Ann 1670; Sarah 1672; and Peter 1674. This family suddenly appears in the records of the Peters (and later Hooglandsche) Church in Leiden here in 1668 and  then seems to suddenly disappear after 1674. Maybe they sailed to America. And maybe they had other children born before 1668. But this is just speculation. See records 95, 98, and 99.
