On a genealogy, long in my family's possession, it states that an ancestor was sent to Ceylon from Amsterdam as "Vicle Dutch Acle Boelen" (1738), I've even asked the Hague for help, they replied that 'boelen' could have meant 'goods', but the entire title still remains a mystery.

Hello Jennifer in Melbourne, Is this written in an original document? Could you send me a scan of those words? In 1738 the VOC would not have used the word "Dutch" Did you have The Hague check that out on the original Monsterrol of that ship he sailed on? here is a website for VOC words, although in Dutch only you can see those words are not in there. http://www.vocsite.nl/woordenlijst/po.html any other help for Dutch let me know, regards, Jennifer in Israel On 11/01/07, J Fiume <mjfiume@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hello to Larry & Coreen (& all the listers), > thanks so much for your offer to do look-ups & what a response you've had! > The names I'm researching are HESSE, SCHARENGUIVEL, de JONK & MILHUYSEN. > Any help you could give would be much appreciated. > > Also, would anybody be able to help me with some Old Dutch words?

Hi List, Does anyone have an idea of how I might get my hands on a copy of a Ceylon Daily News Cookery Book Edited by Hilda Deutrom. Published: Colombo, Lake House Investments 1968 Edition: Revised 5th Edition Ms Deutron was a famous Burgher cook and I know her recipes much loved. I can't get any information on ordering, if it's still in print, etc.. I don't think Lake House Investments (the former Lake House Publisher) publishes this anymore. Any ideas? Thanks. Beth Leembruggen-Kallberg

These two armorial descriptions are as written in "Geslacht en Wapenkunde" which are on the shelves in the Dutch Genealogy Library in The Hague. It may be of use to the list if someone could give a translation into English for us.

There is also a book called " Armorial General" by J B Rietstap, which has the Leembruggen coat of arms as described in it. The picture shows a horse and rider crossing a bridge or viaduct with water depicted. The rider is moving right to left and has a hat on, his sword is held upright. The book has thousands of small black and white shield designs, and should be available through local libraries around the world. There are 16 entries for J B Rietstap publications in the LDS library catalogue, but only a few have been filmed. Just type Rietstap as the keyword in the LDS library search engine, and up they come. We only copied the Leembruggen and Anderson pages at The Hague. There are Dutch Ceylon armorial descriptions of a few families in "Tombstones and Monuments in Ceylon" By J P Lewis. LDS Film 795967 item 7 "Lapidarium Zeylanicum" by Ludovici. LDS film 1057505, has hand drawn sketches of some armourial carvings on tombstones in Ceylon. We have seen a couple of tourist websites with photos of tombs with armourial carvings from Sri Lanka too. Cheers.
