Blaauw family tree

Blaauw family tree

I am looking to get information on my family tree--and perhaps even find any distant relatives that I may not know about. I was born Heather Blaauw, and my father's name is Michael Blaauw. His father's name was Jacob Bernardis Blaauw.
Jacob was the son of Bernardis "Ben" Blaauw, and Ben was married to Bertha Blaauw (I don't know Bertha's maiden name, but I know that she was born in Rotterdam, Holland.)
Jacob had a sister, Grace (Greta), but I don't know if they had any other siblings--I'm thinking they didn't.
If you have any information on the Blaauw lineage, especially regarding Bernardis (Ben) and Bertha, please email me at HeatherOBrien@aol.com. Thank you.

Do you know were this family lived. I have a Blaauw family on my mother's side. They came from Holland to United States around 1880's and lived in Michigan. Please let me know if this helps you.

My family came from Holland, but I don't know where they lived exactly. I know that my grandfather, Jacob (Jay) ended up in Chicago, and that both he and his sister ended up, eventually, in California. My grandfather was an artist, and his sister, Grace lived near him in Vallejo. That's about all I know.

Hello,

If you are still looking, I was wondering if you might have any information or if perhaps you and I are related?

Perhaps we are. Do you know anything about your grandmother's family? Where abouts was she from? Did she come from the Netherlands to the US?

My grandfather, Henry Blaauw, moved from Holland when he was 7 to Michigan.
