We now have three genealogy files on this site: our main database which is a combined ‘Ives-Leedom’ tree, plus two additional working trees with so-far unconnected people I've found along the way, ‘Leedoms-unknown’ and ‘Netherlands-unknown’. All of the Search results will identify which tree contains the individual or place in question.

Different sources sometimes have conflicting information and there are undoubtedly a few typographical errors in here as well. Please feel free to send us any corrections to errors you may find in our files. Additions are always welcome too!

    Notes 
    • Moved in 1828 to live with his wife on the farm "Blekkink" at Woold #72 in Winterswijk. - Mary Risseeuw

      Emigrated in 1847 with family and arrived at the port of New York in October 1847.

      Passenger list of the ship "Kath Jackson" names Stephen Jan Hyink, age 53, and wife Arnolda Hendrika, age 50, and six children: Jan Willem, age 20; Everdina, age 18; Jan Berend, age 16; Jan Hendrik, age 14; Willem, age 11 and Johanna, age 8, arriving 28 Sep 1847 in New York City from Amsterdam, Netherlands. I believe the oldest son listed, Jan Willem, is Arnolda's second son, Jan Willem Blekkink, by her previous marriage to Evert Jan Blekkink. He was born 20 Dec 1825.

      The page also has Aalten and Prussia written in alongside the passenger's names. The same page also includes Harmen Snoeyenbos and his wife Elisabeth and their children.
