I am contacting you about this profile: Abraham de Vos
Jan Jacobs has traced the marriage certificate of Pierre Jacob and Suzanne de Vos in France. Jan can be contacted at jan@humefert.com
The document and a transcription of it can be downloaded at https://bit.ly/2G4wCm0
According to it Susanne's parents were Jean de Vos and Susanne Absolon.
Good luck with your research!
Kind regards

Hi Daniel,
Thanks so much for this en ek moet net se ek wou al so graag kennis gemaak het, ons is terloops familie deur gemeenskaplike Siebrits....
I opened the link https://bit.ly/2G4wCm0 with great interest and when I could not immediately find the marriage certificate I tried the DE VOS folder, however, there is only 2 pages of correspondence while the link to the photos does not exist.
Could you please indicate/pinpoint the document you are referring to?
Regards

Daniel is indicating the translation of the document (Marriage contract between Pierre JACOB and Suzenne DEVOS, 03/07/1667, in Guînes) "1667 Cm Jacob": https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qfp8x5cr9hbu5ov/AACOw4PRhTYV5sQpKJo59roX...
Translated into English is basically saying that Pierre Jacob (labourer/farmer, about twenty-seven years old, residing in Offequerque) appeared in Guisnes, and is the son of Fremin (footnote says: variant of Firmin) Jacob and Margueritte de Nyelle, natives of Vielle Esglise, and Suzenne Devos (a native of Esglise and twenty-one years old), daughter of Jean de Vos and Suzenne Absolon. And then the rest is just the marriage contract of promises made to keep.
So Abraham de Vos & Jeanne Francomme are wrong as her parents - who should be Jean de Vos and Suzenne Absolon
