Born in the Netherlands. Moved to USA in 1995.
Here is my learning page about dutch Medieval Profiles: Nederland Medieval and my page on Dutch Nobility
I have several interesting ancestors: Hendrik Baijens(e) of Nieuwaal (1630-1685) and his grandfather: Henrick Baijens of Lithoijen (1560-1625) and a far family member (6th cousin twice removed) Pieter Baijens (1845-1920) that moved to the USA in 1892.
"Wikitree - Connection Trees" |
My Ancestor |
Knights (Ridders): There are several Knights in my fathers-mothers (Opoe) ancestral line: Knight Eustachius (Staeske) van Brakel (born 1226) his grandson Knight Johan van Brakel (1350-1427) and Knight Reijwaert Jansz van Clootwijck (1470-1549) and also Knight Ghiselbertus Uten Goye (1200-1271) my 20th great grandfather.
My wife's Ancestors |
New World Settlers: On my wife side of the family we have Orange Conner (1847-1927) from Western-New York and his ancestor from the Massachusets Bay Colony Cornelius Connor (1637-1687). He arrived at the new world, when it was still a British Colony in 1656.
My wife's ancestors |
Mafia: My wife descended from Italian Mafia. In 1920 her grandpa Joseph d'Auria and his brother Michael d'Auria were arrested with other members of the Black Hand Society a branch of Italian Mafia. Michael had to do prison time with Vincenzo Disano nicknamed the "Squeeler". After his release, Vincenzo was murdered in 1922 shot in the back to keep him from testifying.
My Cousins Flag |
Pirates: Through wikitree I found out that I am related to pirates Henry Mainwaring (1587-1653), Robert Glanfield (abt.1643-1702) and William Carkeet (abt.1660-abt.1720). They are my cousins. (14th-16th Cousin). I am also related to another pirate Otto Jansz van Thuijl (1661-1705). He is a pirate from Gameren.
My Cousin |
Kings: There is also my cousin Richard Lionheart of England (1157-1199) (3rd cousin, 29 times removed) and from another family tree branch my Grandpa Widukind von Sachsen (0755-0810) (37th great grandfather).
My Grandpa (34th) |
On my fathers-fathers (Opa) side of the family, I descended from Knight Daniel III van Ghoor (1315-1380). Daniels wife Catharina van IJsselstein descended on her fathers side from the van-Amstels. My grandpa Knight Gijsbrecht III van Amstel was the one who built the dam in the Amstel river, afterwards the town he ruled from was named Amsterdam. Catharina van IJsselstein descended from her mothers side from another one of my Grandpa's: Karel de Grote (aka Charlemagne Carolingian) (748-814 A.D.) (33th great grandfather).
My Grandpa (32nd) |
My Ancestors |
Crusaders: Duke Floris of Holland (1141-1190) is also in my ancestory. He participated in the third crusade. He was a distinguished leader, but died in Antioch of pestilence. My ancestors Henri de Champagne (1127-1181) and Étienne (Blois) of England (1092-1154) participated in the 2nd crusade. My ancestors Hugues (Capet) de Vermandois (1057-1102) and Étienne-Henri (Blois) de Blois (abt.1052-1102) participated in the 1st crusade. Jacques (Avesnes) d'Avesnes (1152-1191) participated in 3rd Crusade. Baudoin (Hainaut) Constantinople (1171-1205) in the 4th crusade. Graaf Willem (Holland) van Holland (bef.1168-1222) in the 5th crusade.
Maybe an Ancestor |
There are family trees on the web stating, that I descended from Knight Otto van Haeften. They claim that Ghijsbert Otten van Brakel (1521-1591) (my ancestor) was a son of (possibility 1) Otto van Brakel, son of Johan van Brakel and Lijsbeth van Haeften (daughter of Otto van Haeften). However more likely Ghijsbert's father was (possibility 2) Ott Jans van Brakel, son of Johan van Brakel (de Oude) and Jonkvrouw Agnes.
Not an Ancestor |
According to some family trees out there on other websites, I descended from Crusader Daniel van Merwede (1120-1172), however this appears to be incorrect. My ancestor named Adriaan Jan Arntsz van Clootwijck (1390-1465) bought the van-Clootwijck estate in 1418 and took on the name van-Clootwijck afterwards, but he did not descend from the older van-Clootwijcks who are descendeds from Daniel van Merwede. Daniel van Merwede may even be more legend than fact.
Not Ancestors |
There are family trees on the web saying I descended from Arend van Herlaer (abt.1390-abt.1448) or his son Arent van Herlaer (abt.1410-1473) (many confuse the two). After some searching I figured we were not connected. Than after some more searching I did resolve the issues and found the sources and we linked. But I kept on looking at this ancestory line and eventually I concluded they are not my ancstors. I am still cousins with Arent van Herlaer (1410-1473) through his mother Lijsbeth van Brakel.
There are also family trees stating I descended from Crusader Raynald Châtillon (1125-1187) via Rudolf I de Cock (1220-1270) viaOtto van Haeften (1360-1430) . The story goes that the king of France name-called Rudolf a rooster "coq" and chased him out of france. He kept the name Cock and settled in Gelderland. However the story is from a 1715 de Cock-Châtillon family tree that is probably more legend than fact , as we don't find any referrals to this story or france origins in the original records of Rudolf. The only thing in common is that Châtillon and de-Cock use the same coat of arms. Also Otto van Haeften is not a direct descend of Rudolf de Cock. This lineage is presented in the Nederlands Adelboek, but there is no mention of many of the characters of this lineage in orginal records, so it appears to be a fake as well.
Ancestor |
Finally there are family trees stating I descended from Knight Heymans van Rijswijk (1235-1300). This is also incorrect, however I do descended from Gelymmer Jansz van Rijswijck (1375-1441). Glimmer Jansz took on the name van-Rijswijck when he bought the Rijswijck estate in 1436. So he did not descend from Heyman van Rijswijck, who owned Rijswijck before him (as far as we know).

Greetings Richard
In following my mother’s family tree, it turns out I am related to people you have posted! Thank you so much for the research you do!
I just noticed a merge you did where the LNAB went from "van Something" to "Van Something." I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure I just read the other day that the "van" should be lower case. Just wanted to be sure you are up on the current Netherlands Project naming protocols. Cheers!
Thank you for participating in the April 2022 Connect-a-Thon. With your help we added 3,109 profiles as a team and the whole WikiTree community sourced 84,388 profiles. Your help during this event and with each profile you added you helped improve the amount of connections on WikiTree.
Thank you, Astrid, Colleen, Eef, and Margreet
P.S. We hope you will join our Annual Liberation Day Challenge from May 4 till May 10.

We're so happy to see you are still active on WikiTree and caring about the Dutch profiles. The Dutch Roots Project is looking forward to give the project a new fresh start to put the Dutch in a more prominent place on the WikiTree map. The project is currently managing over 50,000 profiles and the total number of Dutch profiles on WikiTree exceeds 500,000! Within the project we are monitoring the quality of the Dutch profiles and assisting other WikiTreers in producing those profiles. We would love to pick up some other tasks but to do so we need more volunteers. This is why we check in with the members of the DRP to see if you would like to help us expand.
1) Would you like to do some volunteer work for the Dutch Roots Project? 2) If yes, what kind of work would you prefer to do within the Dutch Roots Project? E.g. translating, sourcing, or something else you want to work on?
We hope for a positive reaction but please don't feel obliged to volunteer. We just want to have a group of persons we can ask to help us with certain activities
Kind regards,
Jan, on behalf of the Dutch Roots Project
Thank you so much for your speedy and positive reaction! We are currently composing a list with all areas of interest as indicated by the respondents. I guess we can put you on the list for Sourcing with focus Gelderland, Noord-Brabant, Zeeland, Rotterdam. Soon as we have processed all reactions we hope to get back to you all withe proposals for specific activities.
Thank you again!
Jan
Thanks for taking responsibility for Orphaned Profiles. It looks like you are already doing the things recommended by the After Adopting Orphans FAQ. We really appreciate you becoming the caretaker of profiles!

PS Let me know if you have any questions about the GEDCOMpare process. There is a tool that can help with cleaning up GEDCOM created biographies. It lets you concentrate on the genealogy rather than the formatting. You can read more about it in the WikiTree AGC FAQ.
Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!
Because pre-1700 ancestors are usually shared by many descendants, collaborating with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential.
Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus, whether time period, location, or topic. Review the project pages to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.
Can't find what you're looking for? Let me know, and I can make some suggestions! :-)
Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See: Pre-1700 Reliable Sources).

welkom op wikitree. Ik ben zelf afkomstig uit Gameren en aardig thuis in de archieven in die buurt, dus als je hulp wilt hoor ik het wel. Ik neem aan dat je de Bommelerwaardse Boom wel kent? Zie: https://gw.geneanet.org/vanwijnen28_f?lang=nl&pz=ronald+cornelis&nz=van+wijnen&p=jan+jasper&n=baijense Een mooie site om inspiratie uit op te doen. Pas wel op dat we hier op wikitree liever bronvermeldingen zien naar originele bronnen dan naar stamboom websites. Ik zie nu bij de meeste personen in je stamboom als bron Geneanet.com staan. Dat is eigenlijk niet de bedoeling. Probeer geboorte, trouw, overlijdens akten etc. te vinden als bron. Groeten, Jos

Zelf heb ik waarschijnlijk heel de in verte een kwartier Baijense, maar ik weet nog niet of dat op jouw lijn aansluit. Ik heb dat nog niet in wikitree ingevoerd omdat ik de bronnen voor de bovenliggende kwartieren eerst op een rij wil zetten en verifieren. (Het betreft Meriken Baijense x 19-Apr-1674 te Zaltbommel met Otto van Heuckelom).
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Baijense-10 Rond het jaar 1700 koopt Arien een huis in Gameren in ‘De Heuven’ tegenover de Hendricksteeg. Het huis staat op twee hond land en behoorde tot dat moment toe aan de familie Van Hees. Ik kan geen originele bron vinden voor deze koop. Heb je enig idee waar ik de orginele bron zou kunnen vinden?
Van de bank van Zuilichem is het archief te vinden bij het regionaal archief rivierenland, zie: https://hdl.handle.net/21.12108/B9422BFC004D4A9684DD5E5B16CEED72 Voor transporten moet je kijken in de geloftesignaten, die allemaal gelukkig online zijn in te zien. Voor het jaar 1700 kom je dan op inventaris nummer 678 uit: geloftesignaat voor de jaren 1681-1705, zie: https://hdl.handle.net/21.12108/7237A78004334ED18E26CB7BD557EDE7 Een index is er niet, dus als je (ongeveer) de datum weet is het een kwestie van bladeren om het gevraagde transport te vinden.

Welkom! Ik zag je post op de oude G2G thread. Je bent al welkom geheten en je hebt al je badge gekregen van Bea, mooi.
Er zijn enorm veel tips om te delen. De eerste wil ik je niet onthouden, die over de tags (die groene kreten hierboven). Als je die van DUTCH_ROOTS_PROJECT veranderd in NETHERLANDS, dan krijg je alle relevante updates.
We hebben in Nederland enorm makkelijk toegang tot primaire bronnen via bijvoorbeeld wiewaswie of openarch of andere websites. We vinden het erg belangrijk om alle profielen van primaire bronnen te voorzien. Mocht je er hulp bij willen, of bijvoorbeeld vragen hebt over de gebruikte standaarden: schroom niet om je vragen te stellen. Dat mag natuurlijk ook aan de andere greeters.
Veel plezier!
Michel ~ WikiTree Greeter en lid Dutch Roots.

Thank you for adding a GEDCOM. The GEDCOM does not automatically populate your tree it generates a GEDCOMpare report which you work through either accepting or rejecting suggested matches, once that has been done, you add any remaining names manually.
The GEDCOMpare process guide has tips on how to use the data in your file most efficiently.
If you have any questions about how WikiTree works, let us know by using the "reply" link under our comments, or by clicking our names to visit our profiles. From there, you can leave a comment, or send a private message.
