[QUOTE="Ex Libris, post: 11206055, member: 14916"]I see you have bought your drawing from Marktplaats, so we can assume JP Gentenaar is not someone from South Africa or the US. I tried to search someone with the initials J.P. and last name in [URL='https://en.geneanet.org/']geneanet[/URL], but without success unfortunately. The name Gentenaar is not very super rare in the 18th century in the Netherlands especially in the Randstad: 1947 ([URL='https://www.cbgfamilienamen.nl/nfb/detail_naam.php?nfd_naam=Gentenaar&gba_naam=gentenaar&info=kaart1947&operator=eq&taal=#kaartweergave']CBG Familienamen[/URL]) [ATTACH=full]538571[/ATTACH] 2007 [ATTACH=full]538570[/ATTACH] If we look at your drawing, it looks like a typical art-school drawing. This JP Gentenaar could just have been a talentful amateur. The only thing I can imagine you can do is try to find someone who is busy with the genealogy of the name Gentenaar. I found traces of a guy named Joop Gentenaar, but I don't know if he is still alive (in 2019 he was 88). [ATTACH=full]538572[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
