Surname/maiden name unknown (per Rob). Wife of Wayne Dan Smith.
Mother of Jacob Timmer (1781 Erm).
Parent link DOCUMENTED 9 Sep 2026 (see N28). Dutch grandparents documented: Klaas Boerman + Geertje Jans Mulder.
Married Harmpje Haasen (sister of Heintje Haze!) 27-4-1860 Ermelo - two brothers married two sisters.
Buried Baxter Rural Cemetery, Tuscarora (FaG 115860566). Children: Wilma June (VanCise) 1921-76, Kathryn Elizabeth 'Kaye' (McGaffney) 1924-70, Ervin Richard 1930-2021, Emadell (Coleman) 1933-74.
Full sister of Grietje.
NEW RECORD 16 Sep 2026 [LIKELY birth date - 1940 cert + FS GWK4-33X (parents Jan Jans Bonenberg x Grietje Eibrink); the register row itself is offline]. CERT FATHER-FIELD ERROR ADJUDICATED: the cert's father field reads "Steve Boneburg" but the informant was Jacob's own son Steve - Jacob is JAN's son (Steven's actual son Jacob b. 1910 is a different man). Adult in Jamestown 1895-96 (Ottawa birth register p.77 row 316: dau Vera J b. 20-12-1895, wife Hattie). 1884 MI state census Ottawa Jamestown p0597 lists Jacob in Jan's household. Spelling drift Bonenberg/Boonenberg/Boneburg/Bonenburg across MI records.
IMMIGRATION-YEAR CONFLICT (flagged 16 Sep 2026): this record says 1867 (corpus, from the Bevolkingsregister card + secondary sources); the 1900 census says immigration 1866 ("in US 33 yrs"); FS profile says 1866; a migenweb settler genealogy even says 1865. Family account (Griffin 2010) admits the date was unknown. Passenger list NOT FOUND free (ISTG/olivetree/ggarchives null; castlegarden timeout; FS NY index Incapsula-blocked) - behind-login route: Ancestry M237 rolls 271-290. Keep 1867 as recorded pending the passenger list.
Born at VIERHOUTEN (Ermelo), NOT Doornspijk - why every earlier search missed. First wife Heintje/Hendrikje Haze (d. between 3-2-1858 and 31-3-1860); second wife Grietje Eijbrink (widow Schuiteman) m. 31-3-1860 Doornspijk. WARNING: CORRECTION:
Conc: prior
WARNING: This INFANT's death akte was previously misattributed to the father Jan.
NEW RECORD 16 Sep 2026 [DOCUMENTED birth month/year]: RESOLVES the 3-way conflict - the corpus's 22-11-1868 and FS's 15-Oct-1868 both post-date the county-register row and are WRONG; Sept 1867 also matches the 1900 census ("John b. Sept 1867, age 32, single, at home in Jan sr's 1900 household") and the 1870 census "JOHN 1". Do not merge with the WWI-card John Boonenberg b. 29-9-1895 Vriesland (different man, DO-NOT-MERGE).
Half-brother of Grietje (mother = Grietje Eijbrink).
NEW RECORD 16 Sep 2026 [DOCUMENTED register row; FS index "1895 BONENBERG, NORA J., 6-77" - name reads Vera on the page image, index "Nora" disagrees, page wins per convention].
m. John Charles Murrow Sr. 1942. [LIKELY]
Father of Jantien Kramer (b. 8-9-1783 Sleen).
RESEARCH 10 Sep 2026: a Kurt Denison, Traverse City MI, IS Ecommerce & Marketing Manager at C&S Wholesale Grocers (previously SpartanNash) matches a Michigan grocery-distribution career near Grand Haven [LIKELY-WEAK - no family signature yet; do not merge without Rob's confirmation]. A different Kurt Denison (San Onofre surfer, d. 2012) is NOT ours.
Came to Michigan with sons Hendrik and Beerd; died in Jamestown Twp 1904 - corroborates the family's decades in Jamestown.
Widowed first from Gerrit Schuiteman (d. 15-10-1858 Doornspijk). Parents: Benjamin Eijbrink + Stijntje Schuiteman.
1995 Jan Timmer family booklet (Judy Tanis Parr, from Julia Ensink & Rhoda Brower Mattison); report kamps/TIMMER-BOOKLET-1995-REPORT-2026-09-12.md
Second wife of Berend Geerts [Timmer] (m. 2-5-1784).
Died between daughter Hendrikje's birth (3-2-1858) and husband's remarriage (31-3-1860). Parents: Hendrik Haase (dagloner, Ermelo) + Lubbertje van Logchem.
Mother of Jantien Kramer.
m. 4 Sep 1845. [DOCUMENTED - WikiTree Murrow-115/Hodgin-171]
Wife of John Bushrod Murrow; FS profile fuses 'Susannah Lucinda Hubbard' - identity unresolved pending New Garden MM minutes/estate file. [LIKELY]
Born Benneveld, 19y at 1813 marriage; dau. of Egbert Huijing (landbouwer) & Jantje Lamberts.
Father of Albert (1737), Jan (1741), Lammichjen (1748). Marriage + children documented; his own parents/baptism OPEN (vol 133 early pages sparse - needs scan read or paid lookup). Distractors: Albert Kamps d. 26-8-1811 Gees age 55; Jan Kamps d. 1819 Meppen age 75; Hendrik Kamps x Swaane/Swantien (Roelfien 1745, Gebbichjen 1751, Sleen book) = separate line, do not merge. Geneanet sweep 15 Sep: no tree carries a pre-1777 Hendrik Kamps father for our Albert. RESOLVED 16 Sep 2026: the competing 1748 Wachtum baptism is a DIFFERENT Albert (see N01 note) - this Hendrik generation STANDS. Burial still OPEN (no indexed Drenthe burial 1748-76; on-page leads: 19-3-1748 "Hendrik men????? tot Meppen" blotchy, begraaf133 ord 57; 4-5-1745 "kint van Warnelt CAMMEN tot Meppen").
Death act names parents Jannes Cramer & Hendrikje Hendriks and 'gehuwd geweest met Jacob Timmer (overleden)'. Spelled Cramer in the death act, Kramer in the 1809 marriage.
No dates in source tree. [LIKELY] husband of our Grietjen bap 12-9-1779.
Wife of Roscoe Conklin Murrow, mother of Edward R. [DOCUMENTED]
m. 17 Oct 1908 Des Moines (Iowa marriage, FHL Film 1014489). The 1909 murder article calls her 'Etta Lowe' - newspaper error/nickname, flagged. [DOCUMENTED - marriage record]
In 1841 (age 6) and 1861 (age 26) censuses with father James.
In 1841 South Carrin census age 8.
Parent link to Roelftje UPGRADED to DOCUMENTED 9 Sep 2026 via Rhoda's 1905 death cert + sibling certs (Janna Hoeve, Albert Meyer). Dutch grandparents documented: Roelof Meijer + Janna Klaas Nieuwenbrink.
Parent link UPGRADED to DOCUMENTED 9 Sep 2026: her 1905 death cert + sibling certs (Janna Hoeve 1926, Albert Meyer 1949) all name Henry Meyer + Aaltje Boerman. Prior dates 5 March 1906 / 1906 were wrong. Birth: 9 Oct 1855 per Dutch records vs 30 Jun 1855 per cert informant - unresolved.

B. 24-3-1849 (worksheet). Compiled genealogy centers the family at Graafschap, Fillmore/Laketown twps, Ottawa Co. - emigrant-generation Dutch (Bentheim/Graafschap 1847 cluster). His own birthplace/parents not stated in either document.
Married Louis VanDyke (b. 10-5-1926 Holland) 30-8-1946; children Craig (1947), Douglas (1948); she d. 26-1-1982 per compiled genealogy.
The broadcaster. Born Egbert Roscoe Murrow; Quaker stock, Centre Friends Meeting tradition. CONVERGENCE VERDICT vs Rob's line: NOT DEMONSTRATED [UNVERIFIED] - no shared named individual; geographies (KY->IN vs Guilford NC) and religious communities disjoint. Y-DNA (FTDNA Morrow/Murrow project) is the closer. Sources: extension-nc-ermurrow.md [DOCUMENTED]

Parents: unnamed pre-1770 Virginia Murrow [UNVERIFIED - family memory says Andrew's grandfather, not father]. 'Lunenburg Parish, Richmond way' per Sperber; corpus's old 'Mecklenburg/ Kaley Quin' claim flagged UNVERIFIED (likely conflated). Sources: extension-nc-ermurrow.md [LIKELY]
Heir 1/45 in the 1880 partition suit. [DOCUMENTED - notice]

Heir 1/45 in the 1880 partition suit. [DOCUMENTED - notice]
Farmer/logger; m. Ethel Lamb; moved family to Washington state. DISTRACTORS: a 1902 'Roscoe Murrow of Greensboro' prison/pardon case is a different man; 1852 'Joshua Murrow' NY Tribune and 1853 'Andrew Murrow of Pittsburgh' hits are unrelated namesakes.

Remarried Evert van 't Hof 2-9-1842 Ermelo. Her parents: Jan Tijmens Verbeek (tolgaarder/ambtsbode) + Gerritjen Cornelissen Vierhout.
Birth year: the 1942 Wallingford book's OCR reads "1673" in one place and "167S" in another. This OCR regularly prints 8 as 3 (e.g. "April 24 1633" for 1638, "pirates 1631" for 1681), and the book lists him after Esther (b. 1676), so 27 Jun 1678 is kept.
