Hi Carla,
I am glad you have found our group. I don't have time right now to address your request, but I would like to make you aware of the handwriting seminar that takes place the week of May 11-15. See the announcement right at the top of the posts. You will learn how to read records. I think it would be very helpful for you.
Please come if you can.

Hello, Carla, Fritz has more than a point of intrest,it would really help you,and sharpen your skills.

THANK YOU!!!! Adrien
This helps tremendously!! I have been up in the catalogs and have been able to track Pieter STEVENS family.. brothers and sisters. I also have tried to transcribe the death record for his sister Stephania Stevens. Your information now gives me birth dates as well as a death date for the mother Maria Theresia Verhegge. I do know from the death record of Stephania Stevens that father- Joannes Baptiste STEVENS was born about 1814, from Landegem. Would you be willing to look at the record and my transcription and translation ?? Thank you again Carla
