Westerkerk

We start at the Westerkerk. Beneath the tombstones in the church were some of Jacob's stillborn brothers and sisters; mother Cornelia'Keetje\\\' van Orsoy (1778-1816) was not a strong woman. Jacob only came here on special occasions. Source: Marita Mathijsen,'Deftige kringen. Walk through the Amsterdam of Jacob van Lennep\\\'. In: Ons Amsterdam 70 (2018) 7-8 (July-Aug), 40-45.
