Peter Vrancken (d. BEF 1547)

Peter Vrancken (Vrencken), an Anabaptist martyr, a brother-in-law of the martyr Metken. In her trial Metken related that Peter had been behead­ed at Born, duchy of Jülich, Germany, but did not give the date of his execution. Though the exact date is therefore not known, it must have happened before 1547, when Metken was put to death.
