Pastor, I too am a decendant of Jan H. Hulst b. 4 May 1828. It becomes difficult to really distinguish between two different Hulst Families in Staphorst. There is another Jan H. Hulst (middle name Hendriks) who is much more well known. In fact, if you haven't come across it, a book has been written about him by one of his direct decendents Kevin Ash. I believe there is a copy in the Herrick Library in Holland, MI (I bought a copy from him). He too was having difficulty in separating the two families that made it to Michigan, so he did the geneology for both families and put them in the appendix section. That said, I have found a few discrepancies.

I have been interested in just getting to the immigrant of our family, so really didn't go any further back, but I have our Jan H Hulst's father as being another Jan (John Harms Hulst) being born in Overijssel, NL in about 1808 and married to a Jennigje born in about 1804.

The following is what I believe to be our immigrants information.
