Another question...:
In this:
ontvangen 25 euro, ***voor de ontvanger getekend*** Jacques Clijsters,
my issue is whether Jacques Clijsters is just the recipient (ontvanger) of the 25 E or whether he is receiving it on behalf of the Collector of Taxes as the ontvanger...?

...meanig the recipient of the notarized document. The first 'ontvangen' should be translated as "administrative costs" or something along that line. So, the notary receives the money and J.C. receives the document.

GEREGISTREERD MECHELEN, TWEEDE KANTOOR
TWEE BLADEN, GEEN VERZENDINGEN
BOEK 222 BLAD 91 VAK 4
OP 11 SEP 2000
ONTVANGEN: 25 EUR
(possibly "voor") DE ONTVANGER
