The information that you gave on the board is correct. My grandmother was Jennie Fass, who had a twin sister susan. The other siblings were Lewis Johb B. and Anna. There parents were Edward Fass and Berdena Meerdink, Edward Faas was the son of Leendert and Susanna DeDies, Edward was born in East Williamson, New York. He married susanna in Rochester New York. Siblings of Edward include Pieternella Ann who married Cornelius Back in the sheboygan area, Anna, who married Peter Daane in the Oostburg area, along with a sarah and John. John married Lena Sager on 12/06/1916. She died on 02/18/1939. John remarried a Gertrude Cummings in 1942 and the family then moved to Michigan (Central Lake) Here John owned and operated a canning factory called Faas Foods. John and Lenahad two children. John Jr. who died in October of 1972 and a daughter Betty. I hope this helps you, if you want more email me. If you can get me back from Leendert (I need his parents names so that I can continue the search in the Netherlands) I would appreciate it. Ed Rauwerdink--Grandson of Garret Rauwerdink and Jennie Faas.
