Lyntgen Kemels (d. 1570)
Lyntgen Kemels, an Anabaptist martyr, was burned at the stake in 1570 at Liège, Belgium. Besides the brief account by van Braght no particulars were available about this martyr. (A Bartel Kemels was in 1566-1567 among the Calvinists at Hasselt in the bishopric of Liège; see W. Bax.)
