I don't feel able to add sourced content the right way to Wikipedia, because I'm not an English speaker and I don't know how to put in the right type of references. But what should be added is the following:

>>Jan van Krimpen married three times. His first marriage was in 1916 with Nini Brunt (1891-1984), the daughter of a The Hague bookseller, whom he divorced in 1929. Van Krimpen's only child was his son Huibrecht, usually known as Huib van Krimpen (1917-2002), himself a typographer and a prolific writer about typography.<<

An online source for this is the standard work Dutch Type by Jan Middendorp (Rotterdam, 010 Publishers, 2004, p. 199).

A reference to Nini Brunt (she later worked as a translator from English, French and German into Dutch) in an English article may be found here: [15700690 - Quaerendo] Jan van Krimpen, calligrapher pro pretio.pdf. This is a very interesting article about Van Krimpen's calligraphy in the book magazine Quaerendo (1999, p. 132-154) by professor Jos A.A.M. Biemans of Amsterdam University. Sorry that I can't put this in the article myself. Glatisant (talk) 11:21, 24 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
