I'm researching my G-Granpparents Edward & Emily DE SMITH. From Eede and Sint Kruis, they departed for Atkinson, Illinois on March 4, 1894. Edward was naturalized in Atkinson on February 18,1902. They lived at Mineral, IL. I'm told Edward guarded prisoners working on the canal. They moved to Walnut Grove, Minnesota in 1912 where they are buried. I'm also looking for Emily's parents, Jan Bernard ONDERDONCK & Seraphina Rosalia PACQUEUR from Sint Kruis. They may be duried near Atkinson. Jan (John) Onderdonck born June 27, 1840 at Bentille, Belgium. I have a picture of him with this date on back. Any information is appreciated. James DeSmith Colorado Springs, CO
