J.J. van Oel was member of our family. He married Velma Marie Warren of Vermont. It was her second marriage. He died 1933 in Des Moines, her death date I do not know. The key in this family is William, son of Velma, but probably the son of her first husband. I think he was adopted?? and did take the surname Van Oel. From him your father and your 2 uncles are descendants. Can you tell me the truth of this assumption? Arie van Oel Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
