According to Juan Goudsmit he is very likely a brother of Samuel Levi van Leeuwen, who took the name "van Leeuwen" in Naaldwijk and who was stepfather of a.o. Ephraim Alexander van Leeuwen, also living in Middelharnis. Both named one of their elder sons Alexander.
We tend to believe in that case that he is more likely to be a son of Alexander Hartog and Leentje Gompes who may have taken also the name van Leeuwen of his stepfather in a different event. His age recorded by death may be incorrect.
