When i signed on to this site, i think i didn't read the topic. My interest lies whit this family, which emmigrated to Grand Rappids, Michigan. As this is the one person i cannot find info of, but know that he moved to America. I've not checked the site of Grand Rappids yet, this is the first thing i'll do after answering you. About other relatives Vandermeulen, i do know that there were more which emmigrated to America, but they are from annother "string" of my familytree. These persons are also on my list, but one at a time. Thanks for your tip. Kind regards, Arnold Goossensen Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
