Thanks Fred,

I know this is a very tough brickwall. I do not seriously researching this 
line further back. Even if I could find the right names in Jever, I wouldn't 
be able to identify him as the same person. This first Johan is calling 
himself van Jever, so do his sons and even so do his grandchildren, not 
living in Jever anymore for generations.

Sigrid
