Have to laugh, I guess I didn't have it entered for Margie Wiersma that she was adopted out to the Knapper family. I have just updated that information. I don't know adoption dates or given names of adoptive parents at this time. Sadie Wiersma was also adopted out, but don't know anything about her in terms of adoptive parents given or surname.--Parkave777 15:25, 13 January 2013 (EST)
