But soon after this revolutionary Anabaptism a more peaceful Mennonitism arose here. Leenaert Bouwens baptized five persons at 't Zandt in 1551-1556 and later another three. Concerning the congregation there is not much information; it was small in membership and merged with the Zijldijk congregation before 1700.
