Aechtgen Jansdochter (d. 1535)
Aechtgen Jansdochter, wife of Jan Zijvertszoon, of Amsterdam, was sentenced because she lodged the Naaktloopers (Anabaptists who walked naked in the streets as a witness). She was a member of the congregation. She was hanged before the door of her own house on 1 June 1535.
