Uuldrik & Peitraka had 4 children when the LDS missionaries baptized Uuldrik in Nov 1888. A few months later in Feb 1889, Peitraka was baptized. Afterwards 3 more children were born to them in the Netherlands, then my Great Grandmother Renski was born Nov 1896. Then 3 more children were born, the last one being born 27 Jun 1901. Peitraka died 10 days later on 7 Jul 1901 (she being 42 years old having given birth to 11 children). Two weeks later this last child also died (July 21st). The second to last also died sometime that year (1901). Uuldrik and his 9 children split up into 3 different groups, left the Netherlands and move to Utah.
