I am starting out using TNG to develop my genealogy. In trying to set it up I found I wanted more cosmetic changes. I looked into Wordpress and ran across your site. I found it "prachtig" and want to use yours as a guide. I am having difficulties in configuring everything but the internet has a wealth of knowledge. I have a site that is brand new and definitely a work in progress.
I too have tried to figured out who I am. But I am trying to find out how I came to be. In 30 generations 100 million people had to make decisions that affected me. I have trouble grasping that.
I was born in 1948. I spent most of my career in computer technology but the death of my wife in 1999 I gave it up. Then health issues came along and did not do much of anything.. However I am doing more and have a wonderful wife who is very supportive.

Wow Cees, what an inspiring site. I've been researching my family lines for a few years and have made tentative steps into publishing online. Therefore, I've been researching examples and found your site from TNG. I doubt that I can manage to build such a good looking and widely researched site as yourself but it is an example to try and emulate.

Hi,
you have a great website, I found it through my fascination with the Zeeland National Dress.
Nice work, Mike

Thank you for sharing this website. Please keep me updated to new events and postings.

Hi Cees,
I admire your website, simply said - I am enthused by it. I am also working quite a few years on my genealogy though not with TNG but webtrees. Golf is my favourite sport, too, regardless of my age (8 years older than you).
I wish the best to you and your family.

Hi Cees,
After looking at your site I am just blown away. Best site that I have ever came across.
I am very encouraged about what my family site can be with a lot of work.
Best to you and your wife!

Great topic! keep up the good work!

Your site is very informative; I like the imaginative approach you have taken with it. I'm exploring different sites that have used the TNG software, in preparation for starting one of my own. Yours is truly an inspiration!The tradition you have started with your family ringing the bells on holidays is a great idea, too. We live in a much larger town, but it challenges me to start a tradition of some type with my family, as well. Thank you for telling us about yourself and your family.

Your website is fabulous. I live on Maryland's eastern shore so if you are ever here you and your wife have a place to stay. It's beautiful for cycling and kayaking.
Anthonia Smallegange married a John Baker (Jan Bakker?), also born in Zeeland (Noord-Brabant, Pay-Bas) in 1837. I have not been able to get any farther back on his family. Would you have any suggestions on locations to look? I checked the Zeeland genealogy site...there is a Jan Bekker that might fit, but the person connected with the information had never answered any requests. This is the only line of my lineage that is sparse.
Thanks, Anne
