- THE BEBOUT FAMILY IN FLANDERS AND NORTH AMERICA, by Alexander C Flick, 1943, p 8-9: "PIETER BIBAU [6653-2381/2383], son of Symoen Bibau [6645-2369], No. 7, and Catherine [6646-2369], born before 1616, was the only one of the children of Simoen Bibau who remained all his life at Thielt. He was, as had been his father before him, collector for the poor of the Bilkbosch district from 1644-1646 (listed as Pieter bibau zone van simoen). He is the father of the progenitor of the American family. He married twice. His first wife was MARIA VERKINDEREN [6674-2381], whom he married at Thielt (Roman Cath.) July 14, 1630: Petrus Bibau filius Simonis et Maria Verkinderen filia Peter, Testibus Petri bibau senior (relationship unknown, no brother of Simoen who only had a sister) et Joe Seckaers. She died at the birth of her child, the American progenitor, Jan. 31, 1647: Maria Verkinderen uxor Petri bibau enfanti nato, mortae. Pieter Bibau married as his second wife JOSYNA VAN BESBRUGGE [6671-2383], the daughter of Rijchaert van Besbrugge [6678-2382]. At the time of her marriage to Pieter Bibau she was the widow of MAURIT LOTENS [6670-2380]. In the Aardenburg Orphan Chamber record, quoted above, we have mentioned the property near Moerkercke which belonged to Pieter. The heirs of Pieter bibau made an agreement in regard to this property with Pieter's step-children Loten on January 24, 1683, before Notary Public Abraham de Rijcke at Aarden (Reg. NO. 416). 'Pieter Beheyt [6681-2385] as husband of Maria Bebout [6676-2385/3021], heir of Pieter Bibou [6653-2381/2383] her father, deceased at Thielt, makes an agreement with Laureys fs. Maurits Lootens [6670-2380] and the latter's brother-in-law Jan Andries, the husband of Mary Lotens, his (Laureys) sister, in regard to a house and land in the parish of Moerkercke, which property belonged to Pieter Bibou at the time of his second marriage to Josyne [6671-2383] fa. Rijckaert van Besbrugge (widow of Maurits Lotens). It is agreed that the two Lotens children shall pay to the Bibaus 400 Carolus guldens and the money received from the sale of the property shall belong to the Lotens children and to Josyna van Besbrugge.' And again on Dec. 10, 1683, before the same notary they make another agreement coverning property situated north of Thielt. 'Pieter Beheyt [6681-2385] and Louwreys Loten make an agreement in regard to a property of about 25 bunders situated in Thielt outside of the Schuyers capelle (Schuyffers capelle) named Hulswale, which belongs to the estate of Pieter Bybau.' Pieter Bybau died in 1679 and was bur. Thielt. Nov. 10, 1679: sepulti sunt. . . Petrus bibau. On Nov. 20, 1679, his two children make the following agreement before Notary Public A. C. de Rijcke at Aardenburg (STATE ARCHIVES OF ZEALAND at Middelburg). 'On Nov. 20, 1679 appeared the honorable pieter Beheyt [6678-2382], merchant and burgher of Aardenburg, husband of Maria fa (filia, daughter) Pieter Bibou [6653-2381/2383] and the honorable Jan fa (filius) the aforementioned Bibou (Jan va den voornoemden Bibou), being of age and living in in the parish of Thielt in Flanders but being at present in this city.
