Aeff Peters (d. 1541)

Aeff Peters, widow of Frans Jansz, was drowned 31 June (probably a typographical inversion for 13) 1541, at Utrecht in the Netherlands. She had been rebaptized by the elder Jan Matthijsz van Middelburg about six years before, but later she was led astray by the Batenburgers. This fact is, however, not stated in the verdict.
