About Yvette Hoitink
I was looking here to see if Van Raalte was in one of these areas. My reason is that my great great grand parents came over either with him or shortly after in 1847. There is a possiblility that my great grand father and his siblings came then too. The name of the great great grand parents is M. and Altja Holubus (not sure if the spelling is right). My great grand father was Henry Westvelt. Any help you can give me would be deeply appreciated.
Thank you
Holobus is not a Dutch name, so might be an Americanization. I recommend you try and find the family in Dutch Reformed church records, which often have the original Dutch spelling. Altja is probably Aaltje, and Henry is probably Hendrik.
Hello, My name is Jeremy Westfield and Henry Westvelt was my Great great grandfather. Gerald, son of Frederick was my grandfather.
The name you are looking for is “Hulsebos.”
ook vertrokken in september 1854 met het schip South Carolina naar New York: Jan Derk Renskers en zijn vrouw Willemina Renskers (volgens passagierslijst) Zij was Willemina Slotboom. Cholera aan boord nog voor definitieve afvaart naar New York !! zie Rotterdamsche Courant 22 september 1854
