Dear Johan: This is what I have. I do not know if it will be the right person. Please let me know. Melanie Van Hecke, born 8 Dec 1848; her father was Jacobus Bernardus Van Hecke, her mother was Francisca Roesbeke from Assenede When Melanie was 19 she had a son, Eduardus Van Hecke. At her marriage in November, 1874 to Francies Staelens the child's name becomes Eduardus Staelens Edward Staelens married Maria Louiza Uijttenhove. They are my great grandparents. The family stayed in Assenede from 1806; I do not have a death date for Melanie; By the way, Jacobus Bernardus mother was Marie Anna De Meester Francisca Roesbeke's parents were Pieter J. Roesbeke and C Van Weijnsberghe I sure hope this is a connection!!
Thank you Vicki

Dear Vicky, Thank you very mutch for these information about your famillie.I was hoping that i have fond the right connection now but the dates are not correct,because melanie was born in Gent,Belgie at the date of november 1836.So i think the melanie you have fond must be a other person. Thank you very mutch for your reply i'll looking further and if i find some information about your famillie i'll will not hesitate to contact you,
Best regards,
johan

Dear Johan We may find them connected later...good luck to you and thank you!

Dear Johan I think we should not give up so easily. In America many times children were named for other relatives. Does that happen in Belgium? It seems to much of a coincidence that we have the same name in a similar area.
I will try to verify the dates/information I have
