Book Description
Hindrik Okkes (by 1810: Hindrik Okkes Langeland), son of Ocke Harkes, son of Harke Clasen, was born 1732 in Uithuizermeeden, Netherlands. He married Fenje Aljes 14 November 1773 in Uithuizermeeden. Hindrick and Fenje had three known children: Okke Hindriks (Langeland), born 7 May 1775, Alje Hindriks (Langeland), born ca. 5 October 1777, and Sijmen Hindriks (Langeland), born 1780. Napoleonic civil registration laws demanded that a surname be adopted by the year 1810, so the family took the surname Langeland in addition to their patronymics. Traces the descendants of Okke Hindriks Langeland and Alje Hindricks Langeland. Includes descendants in the Netherlands and in over 30 U.S. states.
