Notes about Jillis Gijsbertsz Kersemaker

Kersemaker.
Een rooms-katholieke familie van deze naam - die is afgeleid van het beroep kaarsenmaker - begint in Den Hoorn met Jelis (Jillis of Gielis) Gijsbertsz Kerssemaker (geb. 1676) die in 1708 trouwde met Marritje Dirks. Hij was linnenwever; zijn zoon Gijsbert (geb. 1710) was timmerman, zijn zoons Jan (geb. 1714) en Rijckel (geb. 1723) waren kapiteins op de grote vaart.
Een zoon van Gijsbert, Cornelis (geb. 1756) was smid, evenals diens zoon Gijsbert (geb. 1787). De naam bleef tot in de 20ste eeuw op Texel voortleven. In het midden van de 17de eeuw woonden in Den Hoorn nog twee families Keersemaker, waarvan geen nageslacht bekend is.

Hij is afkomstig van Den Hoorn (1709, 1716, 1718, 1719, 1720, 1723, 1725, 1726).
