First publication of Banns, 9 March; second, 16 March; third, 23 March.I also show Pieter Jacobsen as her first husband, but can't recall the source - will have to do some digging.I know there's a story behind this, something like him abandoning her or him being already married to someone else?Can't quite get my brain wrapped around it right at the moment.
