Marriage of Coert Strijk and Elisabeth Catharina Springorum

On 26 April 1742, Coert Strijk and Elisabeth Catharina Springorum registered their notice of marriage in Amsterdam. The entry was recorded in the municipal marriage registers (Ondertrouwregister) of the city. Based on the stated age of Elisabeth Catharina—recorded as 40 years old—her year of birth can be estimated at around 1702. This record therefore forms not only the earliest confirmed appearance of Elisabeth Catharina Springorum in the Amsterdam archives, but also provides a crucial chronological anchor for her place within the wider Springorum family.
