Marriage record of Arie Pijl - confusing dates ANSWERED! thanks :)
I am new to searching the Netherlands - tonight we found the record of marriage for Arie Pijl and Margaretha Rinck. The transcription on familysearch and on MyHeritage both give the grooms birthdate as 19 August 1908 (which conflicts with the data on our family tree - so we wondered if there was a second son of same name in the family). However, the translation on the Dutch website gives the groom's birthdate as 15 May 1907 which does match our family records... Since I don't read Dutch, I am hoping someone can look at the original record found at https://sgen.schiedam.nl/?type=CERT&id=178597 and tell us what the correct date is (I assume the Dutch website is correct but have no idea where the August birthdate originated on the other websites). Here is the link to the Family Search record that shows the August birthdate for the same marriage record: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q2BG-YDYH and here is the link for the same record on MyHeritage: https://www.myheritage.com/research/record-10562-3021121/arie-pijl-and-margaretha-rinck-in-netherlands-civil-marriages
The image is found only on the Netherlands website...
Thank you for your help!

You have to make an account to view the image on the website of the Gemeentearchief Schiedam (Municipial Archive of Schiedam). From the low-resolution version of the image, I can't see any mention of Arie's birthdate, only an age. Unfortunately, this record is too recent from FS to have a copy of it (there's a 75 year limit- so only in January 2015 did this record become public).
There's plenty of online resources for Dutch genealogy and you can generally trace back to 1811 very easily, online and for free. I am happy to help you further.
I was able to find this birth record on OpenArch, which in my opinion is the best website for Dutch genealogy (and has an English version): https://www.openarch.nl/sch:0f3ae80a-70b2-ee97-84de-2c1f560a9a34
Also the marriage of Arie's parents: https://www.openarch.nl/srt:CE3F543F-25A9-4153-9B04-FDCC5670AEAE
On OpenArch, you should be able to find births until at least 1912, so you can search for Bastiana Cornelia Hagendijk and Andries Pijl and find the births of their children.
