My name is Steve Belgraver and I am the site manager of this site.

On April 15th, 2009 the 1000+ names mark was reached for this family tree. On July 18th, 2009 the 1500th name was added. This could not have been done without the help of many other enthusiasts so my thanks to you!

• If you have any comments or feedback about this site, please click here to contact me.
  
• We have roots that go back to Charlemagne (748-814 AD), the Father of Europe!
• TOP 2 individuals whose ancestors I am currently most interested in finding out more about are:  

1. HEINICKE, Johan Julius Herman )~1840-1885) married to Hansine Juliette JELLING
   
2. WOESTMANS (WOERDMAN?), Garritjen (~1785-1822) married to Jacobus Johannes TRIEBART
3. 7 secondary priority individuals are listed  further below*
   

• the logic determining the contents of the site is what I call "only up and across". In mapping my ancestors I include an individual's parents, siblings and their spouses. So, not the children of an individuals sister or brother, nor the parents of an uncle or aunt's spouse. The aim is to keep the tree simple and clear. The key starting point is where the Belgraver and Hulsewe families meet, my parents.

Enjoy your visit and don't be shy about contacting me!

kind regards,

Steve
