Reference my 6-26-06 post, I just checked the FHL film of Goch Mennonite records and it did not have the marriage record of Maria Arents VAN ACKEN and Arnold VAN VOSSEN. Almost all the records in the filming were from 1710-1798, though there were a very few 1650-1710. There were some Van Vossen's, and Van Acken's, listed, however, in the 1700's. My guess is, the FHL did not film all available Goch records. One point of interest, The "Brave New World" book shows Lenart Arents Van Acken (a.1652-1715) as the brother of this Maria Arents Van Acken. Lenart ARETS [van Acken] was one of the original 13 families to emigrate to Germantown in 1683. He married Agnes DOORS (b.a. 1657, Kaldenkirchen).
