Biography
I started my family tree when,after my fathers passing I was presented with a number of paper on which my father had outlined connections with people that he knew and were relatives. Before that I had paid little attention to my heritage. As our family emigrated from Holland to Canada in 1952, I knew my aunts and uncles and a few cousins, that was all.
I did know that my Great grandfather on my fathers side of the family was a Peat digger and on my Mothers side my great grandfather was a Sheepherder both on the Drenthe Heather both definitely not middle class. My Grandfather hurt his Leg very badly in a Peat Fire as a young boy , so since he could not work, he better go to school to become a schoolteacher. My grandfather on my mothers side joined the army and spend most of his military in Indonesia. As a result he did not get married until he was 37.
I also found that my mothers Grand Mother was a Koops and her Great-Great Grandmother was a Koops. So far not related?
