Rolf & Christian Koens & Jan-Dirk Zimmermann provide conflicting relationships. The OFB Wymeer 2138 unites Harm Kuper with Wüpke Ahrends. OFB Weener 9849 unites Harm Kuper with Dina Blank, the daughter of Wupke Arends Blank. I assume Wüpke Ahrends & Wupke Arends Blank are one & the same. - D.A. Navorska - xxii Aug MMXVIII - in proximo Grove, OK.
Author: Zimmermann, Jan-Dirk, e-amil to David A. Navorska regarding Harm Kuiper / Kuper, (Publication location: Weener, Niedersachsen, Publisher: JDZ, Publication date: xxiv Aug MMXVIII)
"Dear Mr. Navorska,
Thank you for your request.
The then church clerk provided himself at that time.
In the wedding book of Wymeer 1861 stands
"Harm Kuiper Widwer of the 1860 deceased Wüpke Arends.
In the death book of Wymeer 1860 I did not find Wüpke Arends but
Dina Arends.
Dina Arends is mentioned in the OFB Wymeer under Nr 2140.
She died on June 9, 1860 (not 9 January (OFB)) in Wymeer
I hope to have helped you.
Best regards
Jan-dirk Zimmermann "
