I'm sorry to say, but you were misinformated. Crijn is for sure NOT short for Cornelius. In those days it was a normal name here in the Netherlands, which was not short for something else. I have also several ancestors Crijn or Krijn. My family although is not the province Utrecht, so I can not help you futher with your ancestor.
