Comments: The following is from Johan Verplancke:
Born at Ruddervoorde.
His birth certificate is in French, so I use the French first name Jacques (that’s also the first name used in the birth certificate) instead of the Dutch translation Jacobus. According to this certificate Franciscus DeVos was abt. 20 years and his wife abt. 21 years old. The profession of Franciscus DeVos was “tonnelier” (French word for the craftsman who made barrels, but I don’t know the English word ?). The profession of Anna VanEenoo was “fileuse” (French word for the woman who worked with the spinning wheel : which is the English word ?). Franciscus DeVos signed the certificate with “franciscus de vos”.
