Native of what town?

Barbara Brann

Can anyone tell me the name of the place that Josine Marie Boel is native of? She is the wife of the deceased in the first death record for Josse Roels a native of Belsele who died in Sint-Pauwels. I can not figure out the name. Thank you.

Hi Barbara,

I would say Puyvelde, just a couple of miles from Sint-Pauwels.

Puivelde is correct, the other locations are, indeed, Belsele (old spelling Belseele) and Kemzeke;..Barbara, in future's queries, can you post the actual link itself via cut/copy/past to this chatbox, this way it will lift us to the catalogue directly , and we can browse back and forth to compare locations in the same book. If a location is a bad read in one page, it can be a good read in another.Basically Puivelde should be under the umbrella of Belsele ..happyhunting
