Research Notes
There are slight discrepancies with Hendrikus's dates. His birth records list 20 Oct 1882, however, on his draft card in 1918, he wrote 21 Oct 1882. The date of marriage is listed as either 3 Nov 1912 or 6 Nov 1912. Dates of death are listed as 5 Feb 1964 and 15 Feb 1964. More research is needed to find the correct dates for these events.
