Translation

Fransois Caeck, son of Pieter, lives in a house rented from the widow of Lieven Maetens(?), aged 33, has made his Easter duty. His wife Tanneken de Smit, 27. Their son Pieterken, 3; daughter Maijke, in her first year. Cathelijne Caeck, servant, 15. He is very probably the Franciscus Schaeck of the AGATHA index of Aarsele (godfather 1637 and 1665), the census writer dropping the S; that identification is grade C. He was born about 1617, son of a Pieter; no Joannes appears in his household or anywhere else in the Aarsele census.
