Notes about Pieter Kuiper

De laatste baan die mijn grootvader heeft gehad in Soest was die van gasmeter opnemer voor het lokale gasbedrijf. Daar is hij met pensioen gegaan. Het was de tijd dat mensen nog moesten betalen bij de meteropnemer voor hun gas. Er is in de Soestercourant nog een artikeltje over zijn afscheid/pensioen als meteropnemer. Mijn grootmoeder heeft de laatste jaren in het verzorgingshuis gewoond in Soest Van heer kinderen hebben Gerrit Kuiper en Wim Kuiper eveneens in Soest gewoond.

Mijn vader, ook Pieter Kuiper is na zijn middelbare school uit Soest vertrokken en uiteindelijk in Den Bosch overleden. De naam Pieter komt in de familie voor omdat de vader van mijn grootvader huwde met de dochter van Pieter Mortier. De naam is dus via de schoonfamilie in de Kuiper tak gekomen. Overigens is het aardig te weten dat Pieter Mortier eigenlijk Jupiter genoemd werd door zijn vader. Hij had ook broer die Mars werd genoemd. Het zou goed kunnen dat de vader van Pieter Mortier onder de indruk is geweest van de conjunctie van planeten in de 19e eeuw die destijds veel opzien baarde. Het planetarium van Eise Eisinga in Franeker heeft daar ook direct haar aanleiding in.
