I believe the following statement is in error - "His daughter Clara was married to Jan Bockelson after the introduction of polygamy." The proper sequence of events seems to be that Bockelson married Knipperdolling's daughter after his arrival in Munster, and was separated from her long before he became king or instituted the law of polygamy. He was already married, and had a family, before he went to Munster, but no one there probably knew it. I realize that many of the facts of that time are controversial, and am leaving the statement as is for now, hoping for time to research it and/or find confirmation from others. Thanks. - Rlvaughn 00:20, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Jan Mattijs was "the baker of Haarlem", it was Jan van Leiden who was the tailor's apprentice. I'd also like to see a revision of the "beliefs" section, if only to allow for some citations. Also, Easter 1534 was on April 5th. -AD, Heidelberg
