Family talk:Tiemen Kort and Jantje Stoit (1)


Probable marriage certificate [2 June 2011]

1 Jan 1897 Chicago, Cook, Illinois --Jennifer (JBS66) 08:03, 2 June 2011 (EDT)

This is almost certainly "our" Tieman Kort - there would not be another of the same age in Ottawa County which is where most of my relatives lived at the time.

Thanks for all your help.

You are welcome! I don't think Jantje's maiden name was Schutt considering she was about 60 when married. I believe she was Jantje Stoit.
  1. birth
  2. First marriage - this husband Evert died 29 Sep 1877 in Ezinge

  5. Evert and Jantje had one living son who she immigrated to the U.S. with (Geert born 20 Nov 1870 Leens) His name becomes George in the U.S. and this may be who signed Jantje's death certificate --Jennifer (JBS66) 08:49, 2 June 2011 (EDT)
