Google doesn't know it, Geni thinks it is in Coevorden but records are listed under Diever?

The father Wolter

Diever, doopboek (1726-1811; DTB 35), 20 april 1737, pagina 27
Gedoopt: Lucas, geboren te Voshaar, zoon van Wolter Jans en Annegjen Lucas.

Could be this child?

Diever, doop- en trouwboek (1676-1829; DTB 34), 6 oktober 1720, pagina 44
Gedoopt: Wolter, zoon van Jan Pieters en Grietijen Jacobs.

17 years is very young to be a father.

Found it!
A farm still exists there today Logeerboerderij "op de Voshaer" .

http://www.encyclopediedrenthe.nl/Voshaar definesthe location:

Buurtschap aan de gelijknamige weg in de gemeente Westerveld (tot 1998 Dwingeloo) ten noordoosten van Dwingeloo en Eemster, ten noorden van Lheebroek, ten oosten van Geeuwenbrug en ten westen van Beilervaart, gelegen tegen de grens met Midden-Drenthe. Eén van de boerderijen heet Vossenhof. Tussen Voshaar en Lheebroek ligt aan de Beilerstroom / Dwingelerstroom het graslandcomplex Voslanden met gelijknamige weg.

So for Geni i will use the location Eemster, Drenthe and edit to add "Voshaar".

til 1998 the farm was situated in Dwingeloo, after a merge with other villages
it is now called (gemeente) Westerveld.
