Willem Zee & Geertje Bakker
Willem Zee was born in 1820 in Venhuizen, the first Zee with this christian name, which was taken from his mother’s father Willem Davidzon. He was a son of Bruin Zee and Pietertje Davidzon. He married Geertje Bakker in Venhuizen in 1846. He later became the Mayor of the town (Burgemeester), from 1873 until 1876.
In 1877 the family moved to the Beemster, living at Oudendijk Nr. D161.
On a visit to the Westfries Archief in 2022, I found this lovely poster showing the full family details.

This photo from Venhuizen c. 1900 includes a Jan Zee. See more here. It might be this Jan Zee.
Willem Zee & Cornelia Bakker
Although there were twelve children in the family, only the youngest of their fours sons, Willem Zee, had children. As such, all 20th century Zee’s in the Venhuizen area trace back to him. He married Cornelia Bakker in 1893 in Oosthuizen. They had three children: Willem, Jan, and Pieter.
Willem was a baker (Koekbakker) in Venhuizen, living at Kanaaldijk Nr. 71. On May 12, 1900, the family moved to Noord & Zuid Schermer. Willem died in 1932.
This photo from the Regional Archief Alkmaar, has the following comment: “A beautiful photo of the farm “Ora et Labora” and the old bakery. From around 1916 to 1923, Jacob Kreb lived in the farmhouse, and after him Dirk Bart with his son Fred. The latter moved to Friesland as a cattle farmer, and the business was dissolved. The building has now been owned for several years by Henk Teusink and his wife Tineke Winkel. Her grandfather started as a baker’s assistant in the bakery mentioned here. The adjacent bakery burned down in March 1914. The child in the pram is Klaas Sloten, born in 1903. The photo thus dates from around 1900, when Willem Zee was running the bakery. After him came Koentje Molenaar, Willem Edel, Jonker, and Piet Klok. The bakery has been closed for several years now, and the building is currently being converted into a home by Ard Schenk. For his sake, let’s hope there will be ice on the Achtersloot.”
