Dear list
I'm looking for information about:
Jan d'Rowolt and Johan de Rowalt both from Oldenburg.
Both boarded a ship to the Dutch Indies.
Jan (d') Rowolt boarded on 02-06-1721; estimated age 20(?).
Born presumely between 1680 and 1700. He died on 27-11-1723 on the voyage back.
Johan (de) Rowalt boarded on 15-06-1713, estimated age 20(?).
Born presumely between 1670 and 1690. He came back from his voyage in 19-04-1720 and was alive!
Both information come from the Nationaal Archief where all information about seafares and soldiers on trips to and from the Dutch Indies are available.
I attached a list with all the crew that came from Oldenburg (about 707 names) in two EXCELL files: VOCA from 1700 untill 1750 and VOCB from 1751 untill 1794.
