  • Other names or spelling variations:
  • Gerrijt Hendriksen ten Dam (at 1st marriage.)4
  • Gerardus ten Ham (at Jan Hendrik's baptism.)5
  • Proven or possible relations:
  • Was Gerrit ten Dam possibly the father of Hendricus van den Dam? Hendricus could be Joannes Henricus ten Ham.
     Gerrit ten Dam was from in Gericht Delden at his marriage.4 He (1) married (RK) Stijntje Hendriksen Danneboom on 21 May 1703 in Tubbergen (witnesses: Joanna Soest and Anna Maria Z.S. , name bride not listed)6,1 (banns (NH) 8 Apr 1703, Almelo.)4 He (2) married (NH) Zwenneke Gerrits on 3 Feb 1712 in Almelo3,1 (banns 17 Jan 1712, Almelo.)1 They were married (RK) on 4 Feb 1712 in Tubbergen (witnesses: Gertrudis Fruntenrot and Margareta Gerrijtzen.)7 He (3) married (NH) Jenneken Harmsen ter Brugge, daughter of Hermen Eskes and Berentien Jansen, on 1 Nov 1724 in Almelo3,2 (banns 15 Oct 1724, Almelo.)3 He (4) married Berendje Hendrix van het Hachhuis in Tubbergen (with certificate from Almelo)2 (banns (NH) 25 Aug 1726, Almelo.)2 He died b 1750, because he died before Stijntje's marriage.8

More Information:
He lived at the time of his marriage in Almelo.1,3,2
Although Gerrit's surname is listed as ten Ham, it seems to me that the baptism of Joannes Henricus does belong here. The mother is Bernardina, and the sponsor is Angela Braakhuis (Broekhuis?), who is also a sponsor at the baptism of Hermannus (Angela, wife of the son of Broekhuis). Her husband Wilhelmus is a sponsor at the baptism of Gerrit's first child. This would make it plausible that Joannes Henricus ten Ham is the same as Hendricus van den Dam The following baptism (RC in Tubbergen) cannot be placed: "28 Jan 1731 bta Gertrudis ten Dam pater Gerardus ten Dam mater Jo(ann)a Post. leg: coniug: in Almelo. patrini Joannes ten Dam et Gertrudis Post." It looks like Gerrit ten Dam with the wife of Gerrit Janssen ten Oever.9
