= Koeman, Geschiedenis p.185: "Tot die genieofficieren die trouw aan de Oranjes gebleven waren behoorden o.a. W. Kamp, H. Bunnik en W. van der Linden. Zij namen in 1795 de wijk naar Pruissen, waar zij een opdracht tot de kartering van Oostfriesland ontvingen. Het resultaat was een manuscript op een schaal van ca. 1:60 000. Hieruit werd in Berlijn een kaart ca. 1:120 000 gegraveerd. (...)
