Hi Terry, I'm not sure if you are addressing me, but I tried a couple times to email Lori about the Kuiken family and never heard anything.

Hi Karla,
Yes, i was talking to you. She sent me a copy of a huge Kuiken book that she made, it is awesome. Pictures - stories and all. My grandmother is Ruth Marie Kuiken Dieterich
Lori may not have responded because her mother is having major health problems. If you want to post your email on here, may even be there? - i will forward it to her.

Thanks Terry. I am sorry to hear about Lori's mother. I am still looking for any info on the family. Did Lori have hard copies of the book made, and if so, do you know if there are any lfor sale? I have a photo of Mattie & Meyer Beaderstadt (do you have more?) and found their graves and her father's grave a couple months ago when I was in Iowa. But I have no other family information beyond the names of Mattie's parents and siblings. I didn't see a grave for her mother. Do you know where she was buried? I think she was in Missouri when Mattie died.

I have here a picture of Mattie, but not of her and her husband, you may have something we don't here. Her mother - Alice Jasper - died on November 10, 1886 in Carthage MO. Apparently Mattie was quite young when her mother died. according to what i have here. I have also that John Myer Beaderstadt died in 1929 buried in Friends Cemetary - but gives no town? It list Mattie and Johns children with dates for most of them, not alot of info on their children's children, except for Orville's. it appears we have two Mattie Juikens in the family, the second of which is the one you are talking about, the other having married a Henry Hoss, both of them being blind, and having died in an accident in 1947.
I have the book here, I would gladly make a copy for you, but i have a bad back and i am unable to get out and do alot. i do not think she would charge for it, the book is the size of a photo album. In the book there is dates and all for Mattie's brothers - children etc...
My great grandma (Lillian Myrtle Thompson) married Albert Kuiken who was the son of Elizabeth Vanderveen and Tiemen Kuiken.
I hope i am at least a little bit of help? i will try and answer anything else i can from the book for you.

Hi again. The cemetery is in Lynnville (Jasper County). Everyone knew Orville as "Fuzz". My grandpa was Bryan. I have some info on the son's and their families. And I don't have a scanner, but if you and Lori want the photo of Myer and Mattie, or one of Myer and his sons, I can get copies made to mail or put on a disk to email. I also have photos of the sons at both young and old ages, and obits for some of them. I would love to get a copy of Lori's book, if she has an extra one or has time to do it and will gladly pay any copying and postal charges. If my email address still shows up when you click on my name, feel free to email me directly.
