Pieter Verlonge(n), an Anabaptist martyr, was burned at the stake with Gerrit Vermandele and Willem de Clercq at Antwerp, Belgium, on 30 March 1569. A number of particulars, including the exact date of the execution, not given in van Braght's Martyrs' Mirror, have been published by Génard in the Antwerpsch Archieven-Blad. Pieter was a native of Kortrijk (Courtrai) in Flanders; he lived at Borgerhout near Antwerp; by trade he was a weaver. About one and a half years before his arrest he was married; his wife also belonged to the church; the marriage had been performed in the presence of the congregation by a certain Herman (probably Elder Herman Timmerman) in a house at Borgerhout. Pieter rejected infant baptism because this practice is not found in the Scriptures. He was twice tortured very cruelly, but remained steadfast.
