Surnames: Van Ekeren, Vischer, Meurs, Muilenberg, Stille, Visscher
Hendrick and wife katrina vischer van ekeren came from noord brabrant, netherlands to pella, iowa, marion county in 1867. also two small daughters pieternelle van ekeren (later muilenberg) and maria van ekeren (later meurs). they settled around otley in marion county. (possibly name came from this town as belguim and holland were one country years back - a town named Eekeren just over the border in belgium.

he and his wife buried in price's cemetery just two miles south of otley and 1/4 to 1/2 miles west and then in a field southeast corner. near them also buried there a son, cornelius van ekeren and his wife maria and their daughter katherine and a small son Dirk. Hendrick died in middle age and his wife in her 80s.

Hendrik (henry) had two brothers and two sisters (names not known) who didnt come over - at least not then or possibly they might have and settled someplace in another part of US. His parents names were michael and pieternelle van ekeren.

katrina (katherine) vischer van ekeren (this should be looked up..visser? katrina had at least one sister who came to US. Adrianna vischer stille. possibly she had more sister and possibly brothers too.) her parents same cornelius and maria vischer. (in northeast cemetery at pella stone there for vischers read: john visscher born 1857 died 1927. his wife hendricka born 1862 died 1906")

now think these people pronouce their name VIS-KER or VIS-SHER.

think unlikely abover people releated as im sure we'd know of it and name spelled differently anyway.

when some james was in battle creek, michigan, stationed there in service he had an officer named Vischer and pronounced it as VISH-ER.

(Also found stones reading "P. Visscher overl. sept 1897 oud 67 Jaar 4 months, and wife Aanje Zunvrouw overl Feb. 18 1907 oud Jaar 77, 6m, 11d) which would be died sept 1897 aged 67 yrs and 4m. how would have been born in 1830. Annie his wife died feb 18 1907 aged 77yrs 6m and 11d. born in 1829.

Hi, my apologies for taking SO long to respond; I hope this will still reach you.

Your message was posted right after a major upheaval in my life. By the time my life settled down (several years later), I had lost control of my Ancestry.com e-mail address, and I've only just managed to get it back and log in again.

Please feel free to contact me again, and I'll be happy to reply.
