An examination of the family Snip ended with Jannes Jans, born in Doezum.
Where lies the origin of our family. In Doezum is a hamlet called The Snipperij.
The Groninger Encyclopedia stated the following comments:
The Snipperij is a hamlet in the town near Grootegast,Kornhorn.
In 1828 reported a teacher A.H. Smid that the name was derived from the previously snipe hunts held.
The plausible explanations of the genus Snip and a sharp Sniep = a tapering piece of land).
Jannes Jans had his last name chosen for the hamlet .
Doezum
Doezum located in the municipality Grootegast. The schoolmaster reports in 1828 by Master Smid says the following about Doezum and Kornhorn:
The so-called Snipperij a village or hamlet near the borders of Noordwijk, situated twenty minutes south and east of the church, it is thought that this name was given because in earlier times there where Snipe hunts.
The Kornhorn, lies west The Snipperij bordering Opende, it's a distance from the church at the Snipperij, about twenty minutes, it the lies of the church, southwest it has so it is said, his name derived from hunting, here in earlier times many grouse were trapped or shot, because many wilde animals lived there, nearby the corner Curringhorn ( now it is Kornhorn.) This hamlet the Snipperij had their communion with a Church through (the so-called ) Ruskepad, this path was named Ruskepad because it largely focused on a small farm, which is still known as the Rusken, and it is close to the Snipperij.
The Snipperij is a hamlet between Noordwijk and Kornhorn. The origin of the name is unclear. The Snipperij could point to the bird Snip, but there is also a theory that the hamlet named after a family Snip formerly lived in this region.
Information on the City Grootegast brings the solution any closer, we do not know how the name originated. It is clear that the area in 1830 already bore that name. During the census of 1830 lived in six houses in a row Snippen, all familiar.
