FAMILY DE VOS CHART OF DESCENT
The name de Vos was not used until about the mid 1600s. Whether the surname existed previously among the family but was not used for public records is uncertain. This is a simplified version of the de Vos descent but I hope to add fuller dates and information later. This work is based largely on a publication (1916) papers by (the Late) Pieter Dignus de Vos of Zierikzee. My work has mainly been in relation to the female lines and the later generations.
