Stambomen (Family Trees) Jakob Anton Meerbeek & Hendrika Oskam

Introduction

These family trees (pedigree charts) concern the ancestors of my parents Jakob Anton Meerbeek and Hendrika Oskam. For the time being, this publication includes:

• the lineal ancestors, i.e. son/daughter - father/mother, of both the male and female members.
• the brothers/sisters (sometimes with partners) of the lineal ancestors. Sometimes a little more extensive, especially if I knew them personally.
• the descendants of brothers/sisters of the lineal ancestors.

Sources

So far I have found most of the data online in databases in the (municipal and church) archives in the provinces of Utrecht and Gelderland, especially via OpenArchieven.nl, WieWasWie.nl, Findagrave.com, Immigration archives USA. Data of people who died in the last 100 years can also be found in the database www.online-begraafplaats.nl.

The data in FamilySearch.org is a welcome addition, if the data found also has a source statement that can be verified.

Management & Publication

The family trees are managed in the MacFamilyTree app and the results are published in Genealogieonline.nl. The comparisons with personal data in other family trees in the mentioned websites are a welcome help to verify the data and improve the quality. Thanks for that to the other people who do family tree research.
