Wierd

• Name	Wierd
  Nickname	Grote Wierd
  Gender	Male
  Notes	Although some eighteenth and nineteenth century authors authors have written that Wierd was a nephew of Grote Pier, the Frisian chroniclers Peter and Worp van Thabor, contemporaries of Wierd, have written of him only as Wierd van Bolsward. Modern authors such as J.J. Kalma believes that Wierd is not related to the family of Pier and not the son of Pier's siblings Sybren, Abbe or Tijdt. Brouwer in the Encyclopedia of Friesland states that Grote Wierd was not the nephew of Grote Pier but his ‘lieutenant’ who was probably born in Bolsward and died in Leeuwarden on 30 November 1528.
