Good Evening,
I just found your information on the Frank
Kerkhoff family. My grandfather's name was Frank. Do you have any more
information on Frank? My grandfather was born in 1879 in Beerta Province
Groningen Holland. His father was Tonnis (Thomas) Kerkhoff. Do any of these
names sound familiar? I'd appreciate any information you might be willing to
share. Thank you, Carol
