Margriete was one of the Anabaptists who had sailed from Amsterdam in March 1534 en route to Münster, but were arrested at Bergklooster. She then was released, but soon after arrested again because of Anabaptist activity, also being charged of having contact with the Amsterdam Anabaptist bishop and leader Jacob van Campen. It is not clear whether she recanted or not.
