back to the Netherlands

in the early 1890's we moved back to the Netherlands. in 1894 my father died, age 40, far too young..
i fell in love with Jane Thomasson, we married in may 1903, and had two children, a girl, Hermanna (Manna) and a boy Gezinus Johannes (Jo)
Jane died in 1906 at the very young age of 23..
