My name is Paul Roger Eilander and I am the Webmaster of this site.

This site was created using MyHeritage.com. This is a great system that allows anyone like you and I to create a site for their family and even publish their family tree on the Internet.
If you have any comments or feedback about this site, please click here to contact me.

I've used as my starting points, the research done by Johan M. Eilander, titled "Het Geslacht Eijlander" from1984 and  "Decendants of Wouter Hendrikz Louve" researched by Bert van Bremen

From my wifes side I've used research by John N Grant titled "The Grants of that Ilk" descendants of Angus Grant 

My goal is to fill out the many family lines (as fully as possible) that are linked to the Eilander / van Roosmalen families. Information from 1950 to today needs to be given to me to be entered as this information is not available online from the archives. Please include the province that the cites are in. Thanks in advance.

In the names you will see a ' * ' behind the first name which represents my direct family lineage. The ' + ' represents my wife's direct family lineage

Corrections will be helpful if they are discovered 

The majority of the facts are found in the dutch archives for verification

Other information is found from the U.S. census and other U.S. records.

Also information has been found in Canadian Archives

I'm currently reviewing my facts to correct any errors that may have been entered incorrectly and adding 1 more generation further back to everyone I have already. Looking for possible marriage links to other Eilander's
