Pieter Pietersz (d. 1534)
Pieter Pietersz, of Wormer, Dutch province of North Holland, burned at the stake on 11 May 1534, probably at The Hague (not, as Mellink states, at Amsterdam). Pieter had preached and baptized. He had been in the group who sailed from Amsterdam in March 1534 en route to Münster, but was arrested at Bergklooster.
