That 1770 date is helpful now in narrowing down Jurrien Wesseling's death/burial date, thanks to your reading of the document. Yes, Jan Hoenderdos's parents were still alive. Jan's father named Johann Herman Hoenderdosse was buried on 18 February 1777 at Quakenbruck. Jan's mother, Anna Catharina ausm Wohlde was buried on 7 August 1766, also at Quakenbruck.It does mean something important, because Jan his father is still alive at that time and her parents are both died.
If Jan died without childeren his father becomes ' de legtieme portie ' and her parents are not mentioned.
So this the prove that Jurrien is died before 14 aug 1770
NB they are then living under Schalkwijk!

Re: Seeking parentage of Dirk Wesseling of 18th century Enschede
Hi Ria:
The other day I stumbled across this nice find about Jurrien Wesseling. He gave his age as 32 jaren on this document, dated 5 August 1746: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cat=305524
Doing quick math on the fly, this definitely places Jurrien's birthdate as 1714. And a while ago, I located Jurrien's baptism in Gehrde, Germany as 13 May 1714, son of Evert Wesseling and Anna Stattman. The religious denomination was Lutheran, the same persuasion when he joined the church in Haarlem.
