Thanks Queens,
Thank you very much r/e your post; My knowledge of Dutch history and geography is negligible! i intend to rectify that. But in the meantime could you answer me 1 question, wher is Olst? Because the map of holland that i managed to call up on the internet didn't show Olst!
Also, the web address that you so helpfully provided revealed a page in dutch, which even in google translation did not make much sense to me.
Do you know if the name Overmars originated in a certain area of holland. i have emailed the dutch embassy r/e overmars but i dont anticipate a prompt reply as i imagine that they haave better things to do unfortunately.
