• Notes

  From https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Loockermans-5 Jacob (Jacobus) Lokermans (Loockermans) was born in 1583 in Turnhout, Flanders, Belgium.[1] (Boyer states that he was born about 1590 in Turnhout, Antwerp Province, Belgium.[2]) He married Maeyken (Maria) Nicasius (Casus, Caes) on January 22, 1606, in Turnhout.[3] They had at least eight children, born between 1610 and 1622: Petrus (died young), Jan, Godefridus, Petrus (Pieter), Godefridus (Govert), Anna (Anneken), Mathias and Paulus (probably died young).[4] On April 26, 1613, Jacob received permission to go to France to ‘torff te maecken’ (cut peat) and ‘de spraecke aldaer te leeren’ (learn the language there). As of February 8, 1617 he was back in Turnhout.[5] His son Govert apparently was born during the years when the family was in France.[6] Jacob died in 1636,[7] probably in Turnhout. His widow died in 1640. Her estate was liquidated in 1640, at which time it was "laden with debt."[8] Sources ↑ Frijhoff, p.33 ↑ Ancestral Lines by Carl Boyer, 1998, pg 378 ↑ Frijhoff, p.33 ↑ Frijhoff, pp. 33-48 ↑ Frijhoff, pp. 33-34 ↑ Frijhoff, p. 9 ↑ Frijhoff, p. 33 ↑ Frijhoff, p. 34 Frijhoff, Willem.
