The VanderLaan Family Tree of Michigan and beyond...


My brother Dan, my husband and myself began this quest in 1994.We took a long break and have become very familiar with genealogy on line.Alan and I have been to the Grand Rapids Public library and Muskegon's Hackley library several times doing research.We have only just begun, but would like to share our findings with friends and family. I would be appreciate any information or stories anyone has to share about our family. I have gone as far as locating the ship, the Zaandam, that Lui Vanderlaan and Jennie Demaar came across on.The Netherlands is my next venture.Lui (Louis)'s father's name is Lui also.His mother is unknown.Very interested in any pictures you have. Contact me at my e-mail if you would like to contribute! Jeri Landheer	The VanderLaan Family Tree of Michigan and beyond... Updated November 16, 2001
