Francyntgen (Francyntgen Meulenaers, wife of Andries Viblarre, or Andries de Molenaar), an Anabaptist martyr, was arrested with many other Mennonites in Bruges, Belgium, on 10 November 1561, while they were attending a meeting outside the town. They all remained steadfast and were burned at the stake at Bruges. Five of them were executed on 10 December 1561, among them Andries, the husband of Francyntgen, and on the next day Francyntgen with the five others was put to death. Their martyrdom is celebrated in a hymn, "Genade ende Vrede moet godvresende sijn," found in the old Dutch songbook, Veelderhande Liedekens of 1569, and in Wackernagel, Lieder. The records of van Braght (Martyrs Mirror) are somewhat inexact as to these martyrs.
