Pieter Zandee

Pieter was born (according to his marriage record) in Biezelinge, a town on Walcheren Island, Zeeland, about 30 km East of Middelburg. Biezelinge is now considered part of the village of Kappelle.

He and Cornelia had their first child, a daughter, before they married, in 1821, and then in the remaining years of the 1820s two more daughters and two sons. Note: It is presumed that the daughter born in 1821, Pieternella, was in fact Pieter's son, given the name. However, the records only state that Pieter "recognized" the child.

Note that Zeeuws Archief records spell his surname as Sandee.

A death record has not been located. His wife Cornelia emigrated to the US in 1846 with their son, Pieter. Presumably, Pieter (Sr.) died before they left and was buried in the Province of Zeeland.
