Trying to find ancestors and descendents of the Hiquet and Ooghe names. Alexander Hqiuet immigrated to the United States of America on October 7, 1991 on the S.S. Finland sailing from Antwerp, Belgium. He left two children and a second wife in Belgium

I believe that his father might have been Nicholas hiquet and his mother Renee Descamps

Alexanders first wife was (not sure of spelling)Marie-Joseph Vanaudestrode

He was a miner and had the following children
