- THE BEBOUT FAMILY IN FLANDERS AND NORTH AMERICA, by Alexander C Flick, p 03: "ALEXANDER BIBAU, who lived in or near Thielt and died prior to Aug. 1582. This follows from an inventory dated April 30, 1596 (City Arch. Thielt, weserye or orphan-chamber) in which is also included the inventory of Sander's (Alexander's) daughter-in-law, Betkin Neerynex [6642-2368], as of 1582, in which is mentioned the sterfhuis, house or estate of the deceased Sander Bibau. From the inventory it appears that Sander was the owner at Vossepitte under Sweveseele of a dwelling, woodland, 36 measures of land under cultivation, a parcel of marshland and a field. The property was mortgaged to Jacob de Keukelaer. His wife's name was in all probability JENNEKE SMEYERS [6635-2365], who had also died prior to 1582; for again according to the same inventory, which is a most important document for the determination of the older generations, Sander's son Symoen [6636-2368/2370] had sold the property of the late Jenneken Smeyers, situated at Ruysselede (in the parish of Ruusle), which consisted of een meerschelken, groot twee lijn (small marsh of 100 sq. rods), and a parcel of land as measured by the surveyor Jan Vrombout on Aug. 25, 1581. He had in interest in this property on account of his mother's death. (It does not state specifically that Jenneke Smeyers is this mother, although there is hardly any doubt that this is the case.) Sander Bibau must have had 8 children, for his son Symoen inherits 1/8 part of the property at Vossepitte, mentioned before."
