the different spelling of Desmet and De Smet are common errors in historical records. It depends on the ability that the perons making the declaration are able to read. I all depends how the city official writes down the names. You can include the alternative spelling in the "Other Information" section under "Alternative name". We generally use the names, appearing on the birth record.
( )#1: van de verklaarder
( )#2: heeft te willen geven
( )#3: in de tegenwoordigheid

Gilbert,
Thank you so much!!! I have been using the archives and have to use both variations of her name to see where children and family are. Thank you also for the transcriptions of these phrases. I am a beginner at learning Dutch and some of those letters sure look the same. I appreciate your time and talents to help me.

@carla ratcliff
Your translations are improving fast, you basically have the whole template.
The syntaxis is also improving.I only have a small remark,it would be interesting to write Hulste,=> as Hulst , today's spelling.

Adrie,
Thank you. I also finished Camillus and Ivan's records. The script was very readable. My next challenge is Marie Irma Stevens. I had attempted her before the others, and am looking at my "words". Now.. I see words and phrases that I know that I can see today. Yes, I need to back and edit a "few" things like places especially ( with today's spellings). You time, talents and guidance are most appreciated. Carla
