Biography

Johanna was born 16 Feb 1775 in Chinsurah, Bengal, India. She was the daughter of Anthony Bogaardt and Johanna Immens.

She married Jacob Van Renen 25 Mar 1792 in Chinsurah, Bengal, India. Johanna and James had six daughters and six sons. Their eldest grandson was named General James Campbell van Renen, whose own granddaughter, Miss CorseScott, owned in 1933 the chair in which Johanna Adrianna always sat and in which she died in 1854. Another daughter was married to a Charles Griffiths, whose grandchildren were Sir Louis Dane and Mrs Beresford Earle.

Johanna Adrianna had a large house in Southampton, taking in her unmarried children, a daughter-in-law and grandchildren, whose parents were in India. Hence the various charming stories related by Mrs Beresford Earle.

Johanna passed away in 1854 in Southampton, Hampshire, England, United Kingdom. Amongst the memorabilia left by her was a seal depicting our own coat of arms (of the Bogaardt family?) and those of Johanna Elisabeth Gerardina Immens, surmounted by a coronet. According to Mrs Beresford Earle, when Sir Louis Dane showed this seal to heraldic experts, the latter pronounced it amateurish. We should be cautious in applying strict heraldic concepts, such as "bar fesse" or "bar sinister" and "mullet". The Coronet depicted could only refer to Lordships of Manors such as Albasserdam or Beloys and not the hereditary titles such as "Jonkheer" bestowed only after 1813 (when the Netherlands became a Kingdom) to families referred to in the above such as the van Beresteyn, Boogaert, deBuvry, de Mauregnault, van Citters, Graafland and van Rappard families ("Ridder" in the last case).[1]
