† Kaprijke 8/10/1814

Here we find the only instance of the name Noë preceded by "De" and this prefix was dropped later. Martinus Greyp and Cecilia Biebuyck were his godparents.

He was 43 years old when he married in Bassevelde with Maria Anna Verhelst, the daughter of Petrus Verhelst and Joanna Laurentia Mussche. She was born in Assenede on 3 May 1771 half an hour after midnight and the same day baptized. (The chaplain—vicepastor—wrote: Die 3tia Maij 1771 baptizavi sub conditione Mariam Annam f:am Petri Joannis Verhelst ex Bassevelde et Joanna Laurentia Mussche ex Assenede conj natam hac noctem medio prima. Suscep Petrus Coene et Joan de Vligere.) Sub conditione means they feared for the life of the newborn and had her baptized in all haste.
She was therefore almost 17 years younger than her husband. They farmed in the Moerstraat in Kaprijke where Maria Anna gave birth to 8 children.

The youngest of these children was only 14 months old when Martinus died in Kaprijke on 8/10/1814. His widow died in Sint-Jan-in-Eremo on 25/3/1832.

Their children:
