The reason your links do not work directly from this prompt,is that you did not use 'insert media' on the lower part of this frame, there are 4 icons there,if you hoover, you will see 'insert media'; cut copy/paste the link there and then 'insert' - like this⇒and post comment

Theodore is 19 yrs , and Sara Vaes is 22yrs ,and the article above them, Abraham Vaas is 29 , but i can only read that,he could be related, but i doubt it as these are not marriage certificates , but 'ondertrouwregister' , public made announcements of the intention to get married.

@ri48 Yes, i am aware of her signature as Var,but consider; those files were handwritten, stroke of the plume, smeared ink,and people more often than not were illiterate ,but trained and guided by the scribe.Nobody liked to sign as x. Also,smeared ink bled out and bled thru, and goosefeathers are blunt in their strokes.Also , Vaas , Vaes, and vas are valid for that same name. Basically,those people used their idiolect ,in their own naming.
