Tresoar

Hi papaharry, There is no problem on this side of the ocean (at least when it comes to my questions on TRESOAR :) ) I'm sure that Martha Jacobs is the mother of Haye Jackeles Ypma but I still would appreciate someone looking at his marriage akte and bijlagens to see what information they can glean f...

Hallo Margreet en pappaharry, There is no doubt that Jackele Sjoerds Ypma saw a lot of Nederland!! He started life in Holwerd and ended life in Holwerd as pappaharry indicated and in the meantime was all over the countryside and probably had 4 wives. I don't think that the Martha Jacobs that pappaha...

Maybe this will help? Descendants of Pier Cornelis Generation No. 1 1. PIER CORNELIS (CORNELIS1 CLAASSEN) was born 1680 in Holwerd; Gemeente-Westdongeradeel; Friesland; the Netherlands, and died 1733 in Holwerd; Gemeente-Westdongeradeel; Friesland; the Netherlands. He married ANTJE BIENSES 24 Feb 17...

Margreet, You are wonderful! Sometimes I can be so tunnel vision and not look at the big picture :( If Jackele was a soldier then it is quite possible that he was all over Nederland, like Utrecht, Haarlem, Leeuwarden, etc. Sjoerd was born in 1791 in Leeuwarden, then the next child born in Leeuwarden...

Hallo everyone, I went to the website www.familysearch.org and saw this regarding Jackele Sjoerds Ypma: Trouwde: 1) Tjitske Pieters - 28 Maart 1779 (dat was al bekend) 2) Trijntje Jans - ongeveer Oktober/November 1783 (ook bekend - derde proclamatie 26/10/1783 te Hallum) 3) Martha Jacobs ??? - geen ...

Hallo pappaharry, Thank you for your response. I have all this information already. In fact, there is one more son Jackele born to Haye en Barbara/Berber (the first Jackele/Jakle died in 1828): Geboorteakte Westdongeradeel, 1831 Aangiftedatum 16 mei 1831, blad nr. 37 Jaekle Ypma, geboren 15 mei 1831...

Hello Margreet, Thank you very much for your help! Dumb of me not to look in another gemeente for the marriage (or in this case the 3rd proclamation) of Jackele and Trijntje especially seeing that Trijntje was coming from Hallum. I hope someone will look at the marriage and/or death record for Haye ...

Hallo everyone reading this, I am going to write this in English because it is easier for time sake and I know many of you can read it. All answers can come in Nederlands because I can read that well. My questions are about the following father and son: Jackele Sjoerds Ypma and Ha(a)ye Jackeles Ypma...

Hallo Maikel en Margreet, Nog een stuk uit de krant. Deze keer en niet zo mooi stuk, dit over de overlijdens van Tjebbe Ypma. Jullie weet dat Tjebbe is 6/1/1893 overlijden (Vrijdag). Hij is op Mandag, 9/1/1893 begraven. Woensdag, 11 Januari 1893, Sioux County Herald Charles Iepma, a young farmer liv...

Hallo Maikel en Margreet, Nog en stuk uit de krant, deze over het trouwen van Tjebbe en Janke (trouwde op Dinsdag 18 Maart 1890). Een mooie verhaal! Als jullie het niet de verhaal begrijp dan kan ik het wel in Nederlands proberen: Donderdag 20 Maart 1890, Sioux County Herald Miss Jennie J. Okkinga, ...

Hallo Maikel en Margreet, Maikel, ik heb dit graag gedaan omdat jullie hebben veel voor mij gedaan met mijn vragen op deze website. Ik zit in Amerika zo het is niet makelijk voor mij de aktes in Friesland naar te kijken :( En omdat ik in Amerika woon dan kan ik mensen in Nederland helpen met hun ond...

Hi Margreet, Regarding this message: there she is: Geboorteakte Wonseradeel, 1866 Aangiftedatum 25 januari 1866, blad nr. 8 Johanna Ypma, geboren 24 januari 1866 Dochter van Anne Ypes Ypma en Grietje Herkes Robijn Zij zou ook nog de ovl Jane Ypma kunnen zijn. het wemelt van de ge-emigreerde friese y...

Hi Margreet and Maikel,

Found this: 20 November 1925; Sybrandus Ypma, ship mate, born in Holland, age of 47; 25 years of service on the sea; on the ship "Belgenland" from Antwerp to New York. His age is consistent with the record from 1932.

John

Hi Margreet, Well, the mystery continues for awhile. I think you are right about Johanna being the Jane in the gravestone site with the date 1866. I looked more closely at the 1932 information for Sybrandus Ypma and I noticed something that I overlooked. Under place of birth it says: "Birth country-...

Hi Margreet, Don't be confused with dates (and spellings for that matter). Census records are notorious for being inaccurate. Sybrandus Ypma arrived in Seattle, Washington on 14 June 1932 on the ship "S.S. President Madison". It left Shanghai, China on 31 May 1932. Sybrandus is listed as a member of...
