Genealogy Homepage of Bart van Gurp

This page has been visited  times since April 14, 1996.

To get in touch with genealogists who research the same families as I do, I have made available a part of the pedigree-chart of our children Tobias and Nikki by way of this medium. (A pedigree-chart is a survey of ancestors.) If you as a genealogist come across here with persons or family-names in which you are also interested and you make contact with me, then I will gladly exchange information with you. What I show here is only a tip of the iceberg!
You can contact me via the visitor's book.

On account of privacy, information of still living people in the pedigree-chart is restricted. Every ancestor covers one page and related people are linked to each other. A survey of all the children is always given on the page of the father. At the page of the father there may be a reference to an appendix concerning his family. Because the pedigree-chart is in Dutch I have made a list of translations of the most important Dutch words.

The main families of the pedigree chard are: van Gurp (Breda, Rotterdam), van Gorp (Goirle), Stegers (Westervoort, Alkmaar), Nuijten (Breda), Willemsen (Lent, Rotterdam) en Schneijderberg (Klundert, Rotterdam). About these surnames there is more general information available.

If you don't feel like walking through all pages, you can also use the index on surnames which is added to the Dutch version of this page. In the index all persons are shown who are mentioned in the pedigree-chart. This makes it easy to see if there are people in the pedigree-chart in which you are interested. In the index the numbers of my ancestors are mentioned between brackets. You can also go directly to an ancestor:

Or you can also surch in the drawn version of the pedigree-chart.
