John Geurts & Cornelia Van Handel

John Geurts & Cornelia Van Handel

I have a marriage certificate for John Geurts and Corneila Van Handel.

The certificate lists the parents of John Geurts as Jacob Geurts and Henrica Ayners (Sp?). The Parents of Cornelia Van Handel as Arnold Van Handel and Wilhelmina Van Euk (Sp?).

The birth place and residence of groom (John Geurts) was The town of Freedom, Outagamie Co., WI.

They were married on June 14, 1889, in Little Chute, Outagamie Co., WI., at 9 o'clock AM.

The Witnesses were: Anthony Vandervoeks and Ardina Van Handel.

I cannot place this "John" in my family yet? Does he belong to any of you?

Teri

Hi Teri,
Not sure if you ever got a reply. John Geurts was the son of Jacob Geurts and Henricka whose last name I have seen many versions of. The Spelling is different on every document I have seen. It has been spelled as Winius, Weurm, Weene and I have also seen the wedding certificate which looks like Ayners.

John and Cornilia (Kate) lived and farmed in Freedom until his death in 1914. He is the father of my grandfather, Joe Geurts.
