Notes about Carolina Christina Romer

Carolina Romer was born a twin sister of Christina.  She became known as Lien and lived with her 6 older brothers and sisters at Egelantiersgracht 70, first on the 3rd floor and later on the 1st floor.  She always wished to follow her talent for drawing, but being part of a big, rather poor family, there was no money for her to go to the art academy.  Father Cornelis had tuberculosis and money had to be made, so Lien became a seamstress at a factory.  As children we were also told how she and her fiance Wim had to hide in the farms in North Holland to avoid Wim being called up for factory work in Germany during the secon World War. When she was 24, she married Wilhelmus Bartholomeus Kars against the wishes of her parents, who were not at their wedding either.  After the birth of therir first daughter: Johanna Christina 19th January 1848, they lived in the attic of Wim's parents in the Gerard Douw straat in Amsterdam.  Michel Mok, a Jewish cigar salesman, who had his shop at Eerste Sweelinckstraat 21 had been deported and was gassed during the war and now his shop had become available for future habitation.  Wim and Lien moved in and Wim, who was very handy renovated the place and made reasonably nice, albeit very small living quarters behind the shop.  Her their next 3 daughters were born: Lucia Wilhelmina 15th January 1951, Carolina Christina 7th June 1953 and Lilian Theresia 4th May 1959.  Initially Lien sold handbags in the shop, but after the birth of their 2nd child, they rented the shop out to a Tsech clockmaker, a mr. Ferensic (?)  4th January 1962 they moved to Merwedeplein 60 2nd floor New South Amsterdam.  Wim, who had been a metalworker at the Hollansche Stoomboot Maatschappy (Dutch Steamship Company) had noe gone to study in the evenings and had made himself an adviser for cooling equipment.  mainly in butchershops etc, for which he also drew up interior designs for better functionallity.  After years of being torn between his childhood girlfriend Petronella (Nel) and his wife and family, it finally came to a head and he divorced Lien around 1967 and moved in with Nel.  Around 1985, Lien was introduced by her eldest daughter Johanna (Joke) who worked as a district nurse, to Piet Pieters with whom she lived and eventually married just before her death in 1998
