Friesland [14 April 2013]

Hello Elizabeth, I noticed your message on Jsfaber's talk page. I wanted to mention that it will be very unlikely for the graves of Gerryt and Geertje to still exist for you to take photos of. Graves are "recycled" after a number of years in the Netherlands. I am also visiting Friesland in May (lovely time to go :) Have you been to Friesland before? --Jennifer (JBS66) 12:46, 13 April 2013 (EDT)

Yes, I've been to Friesland in 1997 and this time am going armed with information! I know there are a lot of Steringas buried in Westergeest cemetary. I had hoped to get a B&B in that area so I could take my time exploring the cemetery, but no luck so far. I intend to check out Westergeest again, Oudwoude and Kollemerland. I will be in that area approximately May 8, 9 and 10. It would be funny to bump into you there!

Is your husband a Steringa?

Have you tried de Oare Keamer in Kollum? If you click on the NL flag, then on Beschikbaarheid, it will bring up a calendar search for availability (it works in Firefox but not Chrome). I have not stayed here, but it was on my list of possibilities for my trip last year.

No, my husband is not a Steringa, he is a Swart. I won't arrive in Friesland until after May 15th, but you are welcome to e-mail me (via more>email this user) if you have questions. Have a great trip!! --Jennifer (JBS66) 16:21, 13 April 2013 (EDT)
