Notes about Elisabeth Tjemkes de Vries

Nicolaas en Elisabeth krijgen 11 kinderen van wie er 3 op jonge leeftijd overlijden.
Zij hebben gewoond in Nieuwer Amstel, aan de Grote Wittenburgerstraat (1888), Goudsbloemstraat 9 (1890) en het Lange Bleekerspad 145 (1892).
Vanaf 1897 woonden zij aan het Slatuinenpad 13 (nu 63) in Amsterdam.
Het is een gezellig gezin en achter hun huisje houden zij kippen en duiven.
Het goede huwelijk krijgt een deuk als Nicolaas van zijn werkgever het aanbod krijgt om in Batavia te gaan werken. Hij heeft er zin in, maar Elisabeth ziet het niet zitten om vele maanden met 8 kinderen achter te blijven; het gaat dan ook niet door.
Vervolgens wordt Nicolaas verliefd op de zus van zijn buurvrouw, Catharina Maria Vos. Zij is de weduwe van een collega en hij brengt haar wekelijks het loonzakje. Uiteindelijk verlaat hij zijn gezin en gaat samenwonen met Catharina, bij wie hij nog 2 kinderen kreeg.
