Dear Group,
I don not want to take over with too many requests for looking at my work, but I have been busy practicing and now even thinking Dutch when I write. I have a new birth record for Henricus Peers, born Jan 26, 1837 Dentergem. I did put the link for the page. If you have the time. I would appreciate it.

Thank You again Adrie,
I so appreciate you looking at this and for your translation. Interesting that his parents are 48 yrs old, placing their births at 1789. I did look at Zulte records. not far back enough. I did find his brother Constantin Peers in a marriage record, but that's for another day. I did do the marriage records in ZULTE to see if Frederick Peers and Francisca Claeys were married there.. no, but I have been able to add to Henricus and Silvia's line : Camillius Harel, 1867; Dead female July 10th, 1870 ( film 004773568 , Image 285, entry 31);and Julius Henricus Peers 1868. I think that now we know for sure that Franciscus Peers was definitely born 1871 as you found. Thanks again. I have transcribed/translated them as well. Have a great afternoon / evening? It is 11 am here in Texas. Carla

Yes , i had no doubt he is born in 1871, we are in the evening now, 3 hrs after you posted this, won't be a great evening, i have a terrible
headache. Been riding too long in the sun, and also my energy level dropped to zero after my ride.
If you like to know the time somewhere you can simply type at the google prompt,
"what time is it in Belgium", and enter
The prompt can also do calculations and much more.
You can be proud of yourself Carla, you made more progress than most people would have done.

Adrie,
Through the archives I was able to find more children of Frederik Peers and Mother F Claeys. I have the dates and will spend time next week looking at records. I am playing "grandmother - Pippi" for a few days with my 3 year old granddaughter. These documents have been here for years, but children do grow up fast.
Also thank you for those words and phrases which I have written done.. when you "showed them" I went back and "saw".. Great Thanks .
Carla
