Geertruy Jans Prinsen1

F, #29891
     Geertruid Jansen Prinsen is a daughter of Johan Prinsen, he mentions her in his will, as the wife of Jan Vaarwerk. Is Geertruy Jans Prinsen the stepmother of the Willems children, and is that why they are not listed in Johan's will? Or is this a totally different Geertruy? Geertruid Jansen Prinsen died before 1714 (her father's will), Geertruy Jans Prinsen gives consent for the marriages of Jan and Hilletje in 1713; Metje's parents are deceased in 1720. Willem Wagehals has three possible children, who marry in Almelo, around the same time that the Willems children marry in Amsterdam, at least one of them has a daughter Geertruy.
