Roelof Kastein
Roelof KASTEIN, a weaver and farmer, was born on October 21 1811 in Süderwick and baptized six days later in Dinxperlo. He was married to Elisabeth te BEEST, born in Dinxperlo on April 9, 1809.
Together with their three children Gerhard (b. 30 May 1845), and the twins Theodora and Willemina (b. 8 February 1849), they left Dinxperlo from their farm Weverjanshuis on 16 July 1867. In the emigration list, it is indicated that Gerhard died exactly a week afterwards on 23 July 1867.
Roelof and Elisabeth ended up in Alto, WI in the United States. Elisabeth died there on 6 December 1879 and Roelof followed her to the grave on 20 January 1894. They're burried side by side on the Reformed Cemetery in Alto, Wisconsin in row 4.

The Dutch-immigrant Congregations of Alto, Wisconsin 1845-1900.
Albertus Meenk, a Gelderlander from the town of Winterswijk, was the first Dutch immigrant to arrive in Alto. When he came to America in 1845, he had heard about the area from a person whom he had met on his trip. He chose not to stay in Milwaukee, where several Dutch families had already settled, but proceeded to Alto. In 1846 ten families came to the area and settled near Meenk: Ter Beest, Loomans, Rensink, Vanden Bosch, Sleijster, Rikkers, Niewenhuis, Hoftiezer, Boland, and HoIIendyke. In 1847 more families arrived: Bruins, Boom, Veenhuis, De Groot, Veernhout, Van Eck, and Walhuizens. Two brothers, Jan and Hendrik Straks, had also arrived in 1846. Nearly all of these Gelderland families were from Winterswijk, Aalten, or Dinxperloo. Meenk had undoubtedly written back to his family and friends, thereby encouraging emigration of many families known to him (also watch the complete pdf-file).
