I am researching the Dekyvere (dekijvere or De kijvere or De kyvere) Family.
I can find traces in the belgian archive for this family as far back as the 1670's in Esen, Heule, Lendelede, Kortrijk and some in France and Australia.
My Great-Great-Grandfather Constant Ferdinand Dekijvere was from Lendelede, and so was my Great-Grandfather Pieter Dekyvere. My grandfather Cyriel Dekyvere was a Flax Merchant from Bissegem.
