Notes about Cornelis Jans Boeder

Children: Jan (1605), Geertje (1605).

Considering the names Jan Cornelisz Boeder and Jan Jacobsz Boeder, Jan Cornelisz is by far the most likely name of Cornelis' and Geertje's father. All three also had a Cornelis, so there's a small chance Cornelis' father was Cornelis, but then there are 3 other great-grandparents the name could have come from for Jan Jacobsz Boeder's son Cornelis.

There was a Cornelis Jansz and Trijn / Griet Nannes who baptized Ael, Pieter and Jacob in the 1620's in Wervershoof. Almost every name here appears in the Boeder family. However, this seems a bit late to be our Jan's and Geertje's parents, and the names of the 3 youngest don't appear in any records as Boeders. Besides, this Cornelis Jansz used the last name of Haen. If Jan Cornelisz and Jan Jacobsz Boeder are truly cousins, Jan's father would go by Boeder instead.

There is, however, a marriage record of Cornelis Jansz & Claes Pieters, both from Noorderdijk, marrying on Jan 31 1599 in the Grootebroek Reformed Church. They would almost certainly be our Jan's parents. If they were our Jan and Geertje's parents, one would expect the name Claes to appear as one of their 4 daughters, but it doesn't. Perhaps Claes is the wrong interpretation of the old Dutch handwriting?

An attestation dated Feb 26 1671 lists Jan Kornelis Boeder as the brother-in-law of Jan Jansz Genaad. Jan Jansz Genaad's will dated Feb 24 1691 lists his wife Geertje Kornelis Boeder. There are some other documents that also list Jan and Jan as brothers-in-law.

History of Noorderdijk 2
We don't know what Cornelis did for a living, but he most likely lived in Boede. This seems to have been an area set up to hold supplies to repair and rebuild dikes as well as pump water off the land with windmills. So he may have been involved with this venture as well as fishing or something similar, making his living from the sea.

Enkhuizen and the towns around it was a very prosperous area throughout the 1500’s and 1600’s, having the largest fishing fleet in all the Netherlands and being part of the Hanseatic League which was replaced in 1602 by the East India Company (VOC - one of its 6 offices was in Enkhuizen) and also in 1622 by the West India Company. Many of the people would have been fishermen and would also have enjoyed great wealth for that era. The fact that so many Andijkers are named for fishing boats and other maritime activity shows how much they depended on Enkhuizen's sea ports for their own wealth. In the early 1700's the area around Enkhuizen silted up and large ships couldn't come anymore. The area lost a lot of its wealth.

Cornelis would have spent the first 30 years of his life in the midst of war. as well as being strengthened in his Calvinistic beliefs, being part of the first generation baptized Reformed in this area. On April 9 1609 a truce in the middle of the eighty years’ war was declared, bringing a semblance of peace to the area. During the 12 year truce, Dutch people could relax back into discussing what they really believed theologically. The Remonstrants, or Arminians, taught a milder form of Calvinism, teaching election by foreseen faith, universal atonement, resistible grace and the possibility of lapse from grace. In 1618 - 1619 a special Reformed Synod called the Synod of Dort was held. Pushing their points quite strongly, the Remonstrants caused the synod to deliberate on how to handle this. Arminian beliefs were condemned and the Canons of Dort were written to stress total depravity, unconditional election, limited atonement, irresistible grace and perseverance of the saints. In simpler, albeit simplistic language: we’re all hopelessly sinful at birth; God then rescues people from eternal damnation; God only chooses only a select few; those few can’t resist God's call; they cannot lose their salvation. Cornelis and his family would most likely have upheld the position espoused by the Synod of Dort.
