Antonius Kistemaker (16th century)
Antonius (Antonie) Kistemaker was sent with Jacob Kremer, as a Commissaris (commissioner) to Münster by an assembly of Anabaptists in the Dutch province of Groningen in April 1534. When the two returned as messengers of the notorious Jan van Geelen to propagate Rothmann's book Van den Wraecke, a revolt broke out in 't Zandt in the province of Groningen. Antonius, a native of Appingedam in the Dutch province of Groningen, soon afterwards went to East Friesland in Germany, where he was imprisoned.
