These eighth great grandparents were married in Antwerp, Netherlands on the seventh day of October in 1674. I know about two of their children:Isaac, our ancestor, who was born in England, and his brother, Jacobus.
Antwerp is the northernmost province both of the Flemish Region, also called Flanders, and of Belgium. It borders on (clockwise from the North) North Brabant province of the Netherlands and the Belgian provinces of Limburg, Flemish Brabant and East Flanders. Its capital is Antwerp which comprises the Port of Antwerp. As in all Flemish provinces, the official and standard language of the Antwerp province is Dutch.
