Family History Researcher:
Email; Date: 4/17/2006 6:24:36 P.M. Pacific Standard Time From: family.tre e.info@earthlink.netI had a very adventurous trip to St Francis cemetery, and found Cathari ne Ver Hulst's headstone. After wiping the moss off the headstone, I cou ld see that there must have been a 'typo' on the funeral card....the heads tone has her date of death as 4-6-1903, not 4-9-1903. Interesting too th at her funeral card says "Catharine Ver Hulst", but the headstone says "Catharine Van Hulst". Attached are photos of the headstone, and a clo se up of the date of death.On my father's funeral card for Catharine Ver Hulst, (not sure where he g ot it, he wasn't born yet when she died), is my Dad's writing that states that this is Anna Gerrits's mother's 2nd marriage...her first marriage was to Cornelius Gerrits.

Notes:

Family History Researcher:
You are missing my other twin Aunt Lorraine married to Patrick McDaniel live in Racine. Aunt Norraine lived in Appleton and she passed away along with her husband with in a few months. My mother, Regina was in the middle of the family. She had 5 older than her and 5 younger than her. She was 10 years old when her mother died and the twins were 10 days old. So my mother took care of the younger kids until she was 17 when Calumet County took the kids away from their father because he was drunk all the time and not providing for them. The older boys when to area farms and other older girls when so some time job. Uncle Bob was a little slow so they sent him to Chippewa Falls to some home for boys. Uncle Kenneth and Ruth went to the orphanage in Green Bay and my mother went to Our Lady of Charity because she was too young to be on her own and to old for the orphanage because she was only 17 years. After my mother and dad were married they took Ruth out of the orphanage to live with them on the Brooks Homestead until till she married her husband, Richard Vosters. The twins were adopted my their mother's brothers....Bill Gerrits adopted Lorraine and Nicholas Gerrits adopted Norraine. There were always hard feelings between my mother and her twin sister, Lorraine because she never invited her brothers and sisters to her wedding. Mother would always says Lorraine wasn't her sister anymore.....she even went to the grave not seeing her sister. After mother died I decided that I wanted to see Aunt Lorraine but she just made excuses why I couldn't come and see her in Racine...She was gone all summer to the cottage and in the fall they went to a lot of Packer Games. Well that was OK for awhile........but being the full blooded Hollander that I am I went on a mission. Just so happens Aunt Lorraine had knee surgery and she was confined to her home and I showed up on her door step. She was a little shocked at first but I felt satisfied that I went to see her but I haven't heard a word from her since...I believe she is still alive. I think last time I saw her I must have been 7 or 8 years old at Uncle Bill's house in Wrightstown. When I went to visit Aunt Lorraine I should have taken Kay Krueger Pingel, Norraine's daughter, with me because she was 10 years old when her mother, Norraine died and 3 months later her father died. Her and her brother, Mark, landed in a foster home....I guess Lorraine never got in contact with her twin sisters children and Kay wanted to see her, too. I will always hope she would try and get a hold of Kay to talk to her but that isn't very likely...I tried...but at least she let me take their picture before I left. So I gave Kay a picture of her Aunt that she has never seen . Well, I better gone now before I get email cramps in my fingers. This is the most of typed since I retired.
Take care and have a good week, Jeanne

Vic graduated from St John High School in 1963. He attended Fox Valley Technical College in the Tool & Die Machinist Apprenticeship program. In his early years, he worked at Badger Northland. In 1970, he began working at Fox Valley Tool & Die in Kaukauna, where he was still employed. Vic truly enjoyed going to work everyday. He was dedicated and passionate about his work.
