Marienhafe (Ostfriesland, Germany)
Marienhafe (Marienhove), a hamlet in East Friesland, Germany, where Leenaert Bouwens in 1563-1565 baptized 11 persons. Since there was never a Mennonite congregation at Marienhafe, it may be assumed that the newly baptized joined either the Emderland or the Norden congregation.
