Thanks for the van Vossen names, Richard.

> Getruide VAN VOSSEN born 30 Aug 1716
> Aleta VAN VOSSEN married 24 Apr 1746 to Willem BLOM
> Hendrik VAN VOSSEN (name only)
> Marike VAN VOSSEN married 2 Oct 1736 Jan VAN HENKELOM
> Joannes VAN VOSSEN (no information)

You inspire me to borrow the Goch film after all. Thanks for the names. I’ll take the opportunity to try learning more of these people by posting the names to the Dutch genealogy boards I watch. Maybe I’ll find even more van Vossen while searching the film. And I’ll watch for Zellens (or similar) too.

The Dutch make plurals by adding ‘en’ so vossen are foxes, since 1 voss is 1 fox. And Richard is a single Sell; while a family of them would be Sellen (or Zellen). Did I guess right?
