Classification: Query
Surnames: Verdurman, Taalman, Bresina
My great grandfather Desire (sp)Verdurman (birth 1858) arrived in New York April 25, 1881 from the Netherlands. Departure at Antwerp aboard the Nederland. His parents , Josephus Verdurman (birth 1824 in Boschkapelle) and Cornelia Taalman Verdurman (birth 1826 in Ossenisse) were also aboard. They were married 1852 in Boschkapelle, Netherlands. The 1920 USA census shows Desire living in Grand Rapids, Michigan and married to Minnie. Minnie also is listed as arriving from the Netherlands in 1881. I can remember Great-Grandmother Minnie living behind my Aunt Kate (Verdurman) and husband Joesph Bresina. I have no idea what Minnie maidan name was. I would welcome any information on my family.
