I am attaching a photograph of her and my great grandfather holding my grandfather, Clarence Wesley. Thank you for any information you can provide. Cathy Adams

If it wasn't you it must be another cousin with the same name. My great aunt, Hilkelena Recker married Jacob Kikkert. Their daughter Beatrice married Tony Hoekstra. Aunt Bea wrote a history of the Kikkerts that included a lot about the Reckers. The mother of Hilkelena (Aunt Lena to me) and my grandfather, Dick, was Boudewina Kok married to Ahlrich Recker. That's where the Koks come in. Aunt Bea is in the Holland Home in S. Holland and in good health but not doing anymore genealogy. I hope to visit her soon and just the other day sent email to a Mike Hoekstra inviting him to join us. If it wasn't you but you are in the Bea and Tony line, you would also be welcome to join us. Are you in Muskegon? I live in Blue Island, IL now, but grew up in Lansing, IL. Perry
