Re: Need help pinpointing date on dutch silver wedding spoon

The second inscription must have been something like

1822 den 18 december is geboren Teetje Lolkes Wytsma

daughter of Lolke Annes Wytsma and Pietertje Franses Schuringa, born somewhere close to the town of Makkum

Re: Two spoons dated 1612 - Help needed with hallmarks.

Hi,

Ates is a Frisian patronymicum. The combination of the names can be Frisian too. So I would rather say this spoon is Dutch.

Re: Need help pinpointing date on dutch silver wedding spoon

Hi

The oldest text must have been:

Siukke Douwes is gebooren den [27] januari 1755 tot Oosterend.

This lady was born in Oosterend Friesland and baptized there at Februari 9 1755. She was the daughter of Douwes Sjoerds and Janke Jans. She died Februari 27 1823 at the age of 68.
