Dear Anne, the first word seems to start with a b, is it short for begraven?! Hoff means the cemetery (kerkhof), other people were buried in the church or even in the choir (koor).
1681- burial of a child
Just a quick question- for once :-)
The second entry under 12th is a child of Joost de Bergh of Gasthuislaan? Then there are 2 words after that..possibly h Hoff? Does anyone know what that means?
I notice it's written after most of the kinder entries.
Many thanks
Anne

Ah that's great, thanks Otto.
Good to know:-)

As addition to the correct response by Otto: the first character is a k:, hence short for k(erck)hoff.
Super-thanks Rene.
Thanks, René, the k's in k. hoff and kerk are really identical, I did not pay enough attention!
