aan Jeanne's kant:

- Venema uit Groningen
- Klopstra uit Groningen
aan mijn kant:
- Miebies, Muwis enz. uit Den Haag en Kuringen (B)
- De Langen uit Den Haag en Amsterdam
- Doelman uit Maasland
en heb daarnaast belangstelling voor:
- Schultze o.a. uit Ned. Indië en Schulze
- Ory, Orij
I am interested in the following surnames:
- Orie from Loosduinen and Wassenaar. Also from Friesland.
- Venema from Groningen
- Klopstra from Groningen
- Miebies, Muwis etc. from The Hague and Kuringen (Belgium)
- De Langen from The Hague and Amsterdam

All cities mentioned are located in the Netherlands unless otherwise indicated.
That Venema seems terribly close to Estonian wors "Venemaa", literally meaning "Russia", used in the past from some Hebrews.
ReplyDeleteThanks for yr contribution but you may rest assured that Venema is a very Dutch surname. Nothing Russian about it :-)
ReplyDeleteBeste Peter,
ReplyDeleteMijns inziens is Lemkuhl geen verbastering van Leemkuil, want in mijn gegevens heb ik ook NL Lehmkuhl die van oorsprong uit Duitsland komen(Hannover)
Beste dijori,
ReplyDeleteik neem onmiddellijk aan dat je gelijk hebt maar het één sluit het ander niet uit. De vermelding die nu in mijn lijst staat heb ik uit zeer betrouwbare bron.
Dank voor je reactie.
Thank You very much for Your comments, Peter.
ReplyDeleteI also wanted to inform You that I have built a permanent link to this website from my blog about the borders (in the left sidebar).

All good wishes!
I am curious about the surname, Middag or Midag...which changed over the years to become Meddaugh. They were early settlers in New York State/New Amsterdam. One of the given names was Joris. Thanks for any input!
ReplyDelete@Pami
ReplyDeleteI am almost certain this is a very Dutch surname. The meaning of the word 'middag' is 'afternoon'. Also the words for morning, evening and night have been used for this purpose. Even weekday surnames still exist.
The largest Dutch genealogical database shows close to 3,500 hits for 'Middag'.
Hope this clarifies things a bit.
hi there im looking for any information about my dutch family surname is van asten came from haarlem cheers
ReplyDelete@Emma
ReplyDeleteThe surname Van Asten is not uncommon in the Netherlands. So to avoid that I have to look for the famous needle in the haystack, can you give me more data such as
- the first names of yr ancestors and their spouses
- dates/places of their birth, marriage
- when did they leave here etc.
Fyi the largest genealogical data base here shows over 26,000 hits for your name...
Peter ik ben een nazaat van de familie Schuit wiens oorsprong Hoorn Noord Holland was. Mijn vader Maximiliaan Schuit is geboren in Semarang in 1926. Heb al een groot deel van de Indische Schuiten in kaart gebracht samen met de Stichting Schu-i-y-ij-t
ReplyDeleteAndy, bedankt voor je reactie én voor het volgen van mijn blog! "Mijn" Schuiten komen van oorsprong ook uit Noord Holland en stammen af van een Dirk Schuit waarvan een/de zoon, ook Dirk, in 1790 in Hensbroek overlijdt. De laatste Dirk was getrouwd met Diewertje Baalman.

DeleteMy last name is Oothout. I was told that this is a Dutch name - I know the word "hout" means "wood" in Dutch? Any idea what the full name means? Also, my family would be curious to know any info about this name you can provide. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteSorry but I have no information about this name. It seems to originate in the northern part of the country. If you click on the following link you can contact a person who can help you. His data include a number of Oothouts. https://www.genealogieonline.nl/stambeam-de-pein-opeinde/contact.php

DeleteHello Peter,
ReplyDeleteMy family immigrated to the "New World" in 1652 from Etten. Our ancestor, Jacobus Jansen b.1632 and two other men from Etten were recruited for New Amsterdam as farmers. We are fortunate that they belonged to the Reformed Protestant Dutch Church in New Amsterdam, because that church kept excellent records (marriages, christenings and maybe even the first divorce decree in the New World), all of which can be found on the internet. When the British seized New Amsterdam, he was force to have an "official" family name. He chose "van Etten".
The family slowly migrated from New York state to western Pennsylvania. Stayed there for a few generations and then moved on, finally resting in the state of Iowa where they founded the town of Muscatine. As they moved, the family name evolved. People they came in contact with did not recognize the name Etten as a city, or either couldn't read the family's script or just wrote the name the way they heard it. Census and land records show the evolution.
Along the way some branches of the family put down roots in Ohio, Kansas and Missouri. One branch continued on to Oregon.
Do you have this information or would like to have the links where it can be found? Please respond by private email. I couldn't find a working link to email you directly. I do not want to "post" back and forth
Catherine
Hi Catherine,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to inform you that none of my ancestors is named Jansen or van Etten. So I am not particularly interested in these names. If you feel I should be, please mail me at the address mentioned in the previous comment. In any case, thank you for visiting my blog.
Peter
