Horick in Limburg

JudyBelle — 7 Aug 2008 6:15:17 GMT

My husband is Bob Horick. The family story is that the immigrant Horick--John--came from The Netherlands (at an unknown time) and was in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, in 1799. We know that there is a tiny village of Horick in Limburg. Perhaps John Horick came from that village. We would be very pleased to hear from anyone who knows anything about any Dutch Horick. We'd also like to know something of the history of the village of Horick and/or that general area. Was there a lot of emigration in the 18th Century? If so, why?

Op de beeldzijde van die prentbriefkaart staat deze [

Is er iemand die kan bevestigen dat dit monumentje (op een begraafplaats?) in Venraij staat?
Alfons Van Coillie vluchtte tijdens de Grote Oorlog naar Nederland (Maastricht) en belandde later in Ede en Nunspeet. Ook in Nunspeet staat zo'n monumentje dat hij ontwierp en in 1918 gebouwd werd.

Peter Arts, 1824, Mook, Limburg

ejjohnson — 26 Dec 2006 1:21:29 GMT

I am looking for information regarding Peter Arts. I know he was born about 1824 in the Netherlands. His immigration papers say he immigrated to the US "On or about September 1848".

His marriage record says his parents are "Henry Arts and it looks like Jane Cooner (although it could be a variation of that).

Dutch Households in U.S. Population Censuses 1850, 1860, 1870, Compiled by Robert P. Swierenga, said he was from Limburg.

I just found a passenger list for a P. Arts, age 23, farmer, from Mook. He was on the Maria Magdalene which landed in New York on Oct. 9, 1848. From everything I know about Peter Arts, all the pieces fit for this to be him.

I have additional information regarding him, but am trying to go further back. I have not tried to do any research in the Netherlands, because I was not entirely sure where to start. Would this be enough information for someone to attempt to help me? Thanks so much for reading this.

Gerdon in Klimmen

Gemmnm161 — 16 Oct 2006 4:04:03 GMT

Hi,

My ancestor, Peter Gerdon, son of Peter, was "from" Klimmen. This information is from a 1679 marriage record from Breiten (in present-day Saarland, Germany). I am trying to find any trace whatsoever of the Gerdon family (known spelling variants include Gerdung, Gerdong, Guerdon, Gerton) in Klimmen or the surrounding area. I don't think that he was born in Klimmen, as I checked the birth records last year and was unable to find him. The family had to have lived there for some time for it to be noted as his place of origin on the marriage record. I am looking for ANY traces whatsoever of the Gerdon family in Klimmen or the surrounding area. I found several Gerdon families lived in the present-day region of Namur, Belgium, approximately 75 miles away from Klimmen, and I even found two Pierre Gerdon's, one born in 1653, another in 1660, to Pierre's, in Gesves. However, I have no way to connect either one to my Peter Gerdon.

I am hoping that someone out there can help me in any way. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Richard

I am looking for just a simple Map of " Het Hertogdom of Limburg ", I think at the time between 1600 and 1860.
It does not have to be an antique map, I'll be satisfied with a current day map of the area with an indication as to where the border would have been at the time, "Het Hertogdom of Limburg" existed.
If you do not have such a map please let me know where I might find it.

Translation of the birth, wedding and death announcements from the Dutch language DePere newspaper DE VOLKSSTEM are now available on my website for the first 5 years of publication, 1889 – 1895. The files are available for downloading in the RTF format. The newspaper was published between 1889 and 1920 in DePere, Wisconsin, a town Green Bay, Wisconsin. That area was heavily settled by immigrants from The Netherlands and Belgium, as well as immigrants from Poland, Germany and Ireland.

Netherlands 'CUPPEN' changed to Polish 'CZUBAN'???

Chris Wytrwal — 13 Apr 2006 1:02:19 GMT

Recently I checked some information regarding my great grandmother Stefania Czuban, born in Krzyzanowice, Poland.
I had known that her father was Jan Czuban and mother Wiktoria Smoluch. I again checked Ancestry.com and found that someone had added information to my ancestors and had changed the spelling. Jan Czuban was now listed as Jan Cuppen from Horst, Netherlands. I can see some phonetic similarity in the spellings as Czuban is pronounced Tsuban in Polish. Is Cuppen pronounced Tsuppen? Jan Cuppen list his ancestors as Theodore Cuppen and Petronella Haegans.

Can someone please tell me if they are aware of a CUPPEN member (Jan) leaving Netherlands to marry Wiktoria Smoluch in Poland and having a family there, in or near Krakow.

Please help, as this would be a great link, as the poster has the Cuppen family back to 1700.

Jenna Muyres — 8 Dec 2005 3:21:36 GMT

Hello JOS,
I have information on the Muyres family back to Hendrik Muijres in Nieuwstadt and that is where it ends. I wounder if you would know his parents or wife's names. Any information you could give me would be treasured, as I am in Canada and can not go to the records office.
Hendrik died in Nieuwstadt ( I think in) 1726 on Dec 12. His son who is my direct ancestor was Theodorus Muijres married to Petronella Jessen.
I woundered do you still spell the name there Muijres?
Looking forward to corresponding with you.

Need Help with History of Limburg

Gemmnm161 — 23 Jul 2005 9:23:34 GMT

Hi,

My ancestor, Peter Gerdon, was married in Urweiler, Kreis Sankt Wendel, Saarland, Germany on 27 August 1679. On the record, it names his village of birth.
"ex Kleinnen/Klimmen??? patria Leodiense"
The village name is not clear. I and a few others saw "Kleinnen," which seems to have never existed, while a woman in Belgium who is helping me could not find Kleinnen, but found Klimmen, in Limburg, Netherlands.

Now, the record names the home village as being in Leodiens, that is, Liege/Luettich/Luik, which is in Belgium. My question: Was Klimmen, or the area around it, ever part of Liege/Luettich/Luik? I cannot find a map dating back to 1679, but see that Klimmen is not very far from Liege, making it possible that it was part of Liege at that time.

If you can help in any way, please contact me.
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Richard Michaels

Wallentheim Village in Netherlands or Germany?

tombitt — 16 May 2005 1:54:23 GMT

I've got a marriage record from Geleen, Limburg, Netherlands (a Catholic town) that says the groom was born in "Wallentheim" (or Wallertheim). It is pretty clear. Can anybody shed any light on this? The nearest possibilities I've found is a Wollersheim, Germany 35 miles away (Catholic), and a Wallertheim, Germany 110 miles away (but not a Catholic town). Any suggestions on reasonable variations? What does "-theim" mean, and is "-sheim" a reasonable alternative spelling? Any help or suggestions appreciated.

Loison/Loyson in Maastricht area

Frans Dergent — 6 Jun 1999 12:00:00 GMT

I am looking for the Loison family, which seems to have originated in the Maastricht area (Wittem, Wijlre...). I have found a whole lot of descendants of this family in the 15th-16th century in nearby Dalhem (nowadays Belgium) where the name developped into : "Loison de Genestre dit le Gaen(t)".
Rietstap indicates a family crest which he situates in the Valkenburg area, but he does not indicate a date or any other further particulars.
One of the family members was a close helper or family member of Frederik van WItthem, a knight of the Dukes of Burgundy.
All information on this family is most welcome!
