PIETER HERMANS VAN DEVENTER was born about 1605 in the Village of Twello in the Voorst Municipality in the Gelderland Province of the Netherlands.

Bann (bond) published on Apr. 29, 1626, for the marriage of PIETER HERMANS, who was born in Twello, a widower, a horseman in Capt. Riperda's Company and FENNEKE (JOSEPHINE) HENDRICKS, who was born in Weseke, Westphalia, and is living on the Long Bishop street in Deventer; married on May 2, 1626.

The village of Twello is located between two and three miles from Deventer, across the River Yssel in the Province of Gelderland. On a map of 1690, the name of this village is written 'Dwelle' and it has been variouly written, der Well, Twel and Twello. Following a custom of the country at that time, Pieter Hermans was sometimes referred to as van Twel or van der Wel, indicationg that he was born in Twello ('van' meaning from). At other times, he was called van Deventer, thus showing his use of the name. It is said that van Twel was not at the time an established surname and that it was used as pointing to the place of Peter Hermans' birth rather than as a surname. It is common knowledge that surnames were not always closely adhered to during that time. Thus, a man might use a name indicating his place of birth and at other times used the surname of his father.
