I found that at the Kent County Clerk's office, but I'm not sure yet if there is a connection to my Spanninga family. Tina's parents are Ont. Steenstra and Anne Smit. I have a Siepke Steenstra Dykstra who married my Cornelius Spanninga Jan. 11. 1979, but her death record gives her parents as Jan Steenstra and Antje Tiemersma. At some point according to family history the Spanningas had a Bontekoe boy living with them. I have a photo of a young man identified as "Bontekoe", as well as a photo of a young lady identified as "Steenstra?" circa about 1897 (and a bunch more unidentified photos). If you want me to e-mail you a copy of the photos let me know. If you have any info for me I'd love to have it! Erin
