November 5 1699

On that day, Barbara Walravens died in Sint Kwintens Lennik. She had been born on September 5 1623 in Sint Pieters Leeuw, the cradle of the Walravens family. Barbara married Zeger Van Cutsem, born in Sint Martens Lennik ca 1620, who died in Sint Kwintens Lennik in 1681. They were relatively important farmers and Zeger has been an alderman. According to one source (to be verified) he also was lord of Bossuyt through his descendance of the Pipenpoy family. In any case, they both came from a line of important farmers ("pachters"). They had 10 children.

I have described the line from Barbara and Zeger down to me on previous occasions - see "September 5 1623" and other posts.
