Cornelis Gentman, a Dutch Reformed minister at Utrecht, who stemmed from a Mennonite refugee family from Flanders, was the moving force in 1659 in the city government's persecution of the Dutch Mennonite preachers Goris van Aldendorp, Arent van Heuven, Johan Andries van Aken, and Willem van Maurick. This dispute gave him occasion to publish several hate-filled booklets. Gentman is thought to be the author of the 12 questions on the basis of which the Mennonites of Utrecht (in 1655 and 1661), Deventer (1669), and Middelburg (1665) were to be examined by the city governments. The questions are found in Blaupot ten Cate, Groningen.
