Wat een geweldig mooie site heeft u gebouwd. Complimenten!
20 Jaren geleden kon ik een website bouwen met html, maar dit lukt mij niet helaas. Knap!
Enige tijd terug ben ik weer in de genealogie gedoken. Opvallend genoeg niet ver van uw voorouders: in Yerseke beland. Via de overlopers en belastingrekeningen kom ik tot ca. 1465. Coman/Come is vanaf ca. 1550 in gebruik. Biezelinge komt ook nog wel voor bij de rechtstreekse voorouder in de 18e eeuw. In Kapelle 1 familielid als schepen. Verder eeuwenlang darinkdelvers. Nog een link: ik ben Dordtenaar, met meerdere boeken over de stad op mijn naam.

Hi Cees, this John Paul from the TNG Forum. I must say you have a VERY cool website and very interesting too. I'm slowly creating a WordPress/TNG website (offline/wamp64 right now) using your method and was checking your site out to get a few ideas. Hope you don't mind.

Hallo, ik was op zoek naar info over de ambachtsheerlijkheden.
Want ik heb het Ambachtsheerlijk Visrecht Schore-Vlake van mijn opa Ko Cabboort, via mijn vader Jo Brouwer en oom Gerard Cabboort, geërfd. Zij zijn allen al overleden.
En toen las ik: Kloosterman.be en dacht: dat is toch Belgisch? Tot ik over het Klooster Jeruzalem las.
Lange tijd heeft ons gezin in de van der Biltlaan gewoond. Nu woon ik al 30 jaar in de Waardekensstraat. De geschiedenis van Kapelle door (destijds mijn overbuurman) van IJsseldijk heb ik van mijn opa gehad. Dus weet ik alles redelijk te plaatsen. Bravo voor dit stuk over de fam. Kloosterman uit "Eversdiek".
Het is niet alleen mooi gedaan, maar geeft ook weer nieuwe info aan mij.
Bedankt daarvoor!
Ab Brouwer.

Very impressed by your website and interested in using your method for my Heseltine One Name Study site.
Prachtige website met veel gedocumenteerde gegevens. Ook m.b.t. DNA waarnaar ik op zoek was. Ik heb Haplogroep I1 en we zijn dus verwant, maar bovendien was ik verrast door de Viking hand. Ik had er nooit van gehoord en vergeleek mijn handen met de foto die exact dezelfde afwijkingen hebben. Heb je ook familie gehad bij het LOODSWEZEN op de betonningsvaartuigen o.a. Frans Naerebout waar mijn vader kapitein op was ?

Gefeliciteerd met deze website, het zit mooi en gedetailleerd in elkaar.
Hallo Cees
Je vroeg naar gegevens van Jan Kloosterman, die naar Amerika gegaan is. Die heb ik wel voor je. Te veel om hier te vermelden, maar mail me maar.
Groetjes, Suus

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.
Be safe traveling. If you ever get to America, look me up.

Hi Cees
I've just started trying to build my own family website and came across your site while searching for 'good' examples. I love your site and hope that I can eventually produce something half as good.
Kind regards to you and your family.

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.
Wow Cees that an incredible site you have built!! Thanks for the inspiration! This is just great.

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

Regelmatig heb ik deze website bezocht om te kijken hoe mooi TNG is ingebouwd in Wordpress. Dat wilde ik zelf ook met de site www.minnertsgavroeger.nl Uiteindelijk is het mij gelukt met de aanwijzingen op deze website. Dank daarvoor! Ik ben ontzettend blij met het resultaat. Ik gebruik als thema Highend (pro) maar denk er nu sterk over na om Avada aan te schaffen. Als ik dat thema aanschaf kan ik ook enkele plugins laten vervallen omdat die in Avada zijn ingebouwd.
Thank you for sharing this website. Please keep me updated to new events and postings.

For someone without much technical knowledge, it has been a process to explore the various options available to create a family website. I have set up a website using TNG (which took a while to identify and understand,) In conjunction with this journey, I also accessed all of their exemplar websites and came across yours. Quite impressive!
I will be contacting you in the near future to explore development options. I am looking to avoid cookie-cutter presentations.

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.

Beautifully constructed family genealogy website. A person could spend hours examining your information.
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!

You have among the best web pages.
Great topic! keep up the good work!
Cees, I LOVE your site. Although I have been working on my genealogy for 30 years of my 56 I am just now trying to place this huge collection of data online. Your site is everything I wish for mine if I only had your talent! Your family must be so proud of your site accomplishments! My best to you and condolences on the loss of your parents.

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.

You have a GREAT site! It's filled with incredible amounts of information. My Dutch ancestors had the surnames of Van Hoesen, Van Schaick, Hallenbeck & Van Noorstrant. They were in the US in the 1600's and I'm quite proud of my Dutch heritage. I also use TNG for my genealogy webpage and continue to look for new ideas. You've done an outstanding job.

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

WOW! Very Impressive Website! I just created our Family History website and was looking for some ideas and I believe I have found a gold mine!

Hi there, stumbled across your site I was born a Kloosterman, my mom was married to Peter Kloosterman in 1964, I was born and he disappeared...remember seeing him once when I was five years old. Maybe he is part of the Kloosterman family...I would really love to know who my father is. If you have any info I would welcome hearing back from you. Thank-you in advance. Hugs Carolynn
Thanks for making this site and all the work you put in! I found out more about my genealogy. So interesting to me! Still trying to correct people over here on how to say our last name - although it isn't even mine anymore! I will always tell them the Dutch pronunciation. 🙂
Have a good day!

What a Wonderful journey you have taken. Thank you so much for sharing your vision of a personal web page and how it can link your thoughts, feelings, experiences in such a moving and touching manner. We are all on our own jouney and Mine has been influenced by meeting you on the web. I am just beginning to find the time to begin my journey. You have set the standard very high.
Thanks for your genealogy website information. My family & historical research is currently on ancestry.com. I enjoy the digging or the research.
Best always,

What an incredible achievement! Vising this site makes me feel as if I am poring through the pages of a great epic novel. Cees, I am truly happy that my grandchild will share your name.
Your site is tremendous! Deep, broad, attractive, and interesting, even if you're not into in genealogy.
Hi Cees. Your website is awesome, and thank you for sharing it. You have done a tremendous amount of work on this website, including the history and how it applies to your family. Great jog! My grandfather's name is Benne Kloosterman (who has past always) and my mom's name is Grietje and stills lives in Canada.
In Internet years, I am an old-timer. Been around a long time and have looked at a lot of web sites. Your site simply blows me away. Well done. That it is a labor of love shines through on every page. Truly impressive and thanks for sharing it.
This website has been a tremendous help in my genealogy research. So thorough and so interesting. Thank you.
Hello Cees, and thank you so much for this website...this is exactly what I was looking to do, integrate TNG into Wordpress but have more control over the customization of my website. You have been a tremendous help, as, although I am quite computer/database savvy, there are limitations to that knowledge when it comes to web design, which I am beginning to realise can be quite complex!!
So anyway, I already had my TNG website up and running, but wanted to not be constrained by the templates, plus I wanted to add extra information, much like yours, so here I am..
So I have followed your instructions to the letter, and it is all good, I am in the process of designing my page, and the links to all the TNG webpages works well, complete with the Wordpress headings, etc.
There is only one problem (so far...!!)....and that is I seem to have lost the link to the media thumbnails, indeed the media altogether. When I select the photos to view them (as no thumbnail is showing up), the image doesnt load, and I therefore cant create a thumbnail from the original. Nothing has changed, WP uses the same My SQL database that I had set up for TNG, so what am I doing wrong here?...the links are showing up (there is the usual list of media like on the TNG website), but the media appears to be missing...do you have any clues??
Once again, thankyou, thankyou, thankyou...I wouldnt have got this far without your advice on your website...brilliant!!

Hi Cees,
I am beginning my journey to create a family genealogy site using TNG and WordPress. I totally love your seamless and beautiful deployment of these two tools. To the point, HOW did you do this? Any assistance and kind notes of guidance would be greatly appreciated.

WOW ... you are amazing. This has to be the most fabulous genealogy website ever. Thanks for the inspiration and your advice. I have decided to tackle TNG PHP. Wish me luck
Beste Cees,
Per toeval liep ik tegen jouw prachtige site aan betreffende jullie familieverleden. Mijn complimenten, echt zoals ik dat ook zou doen: niet zo zakelijk, erg persoonlijk en vol emoties!
Je moet een gevoelig mens zijn, en erg trots op de familienaam, dat lees je zo tussen de regels door. Het Engels is ook uitstekend, een aspect wat erg belangrijk is wanneer je internationaal op het net wilt gaan.
Zelf ben ik in 1987 in onze gschiedenis gedoken, erg erg interessant. Niet eenvoudig want in die tijd was het internet niet zo ver ontwikkeld, dus je moest het van persoonlijke contacten hebben. Het heeft ook wel wat gekost destijds, tegenwoordig is het wat makkelijker. I.t.t. de Kloostermannen hebben wij wel een familiewapen. Sterker nog, ik kon terug gaan tot 1448 en kwam uit bij Frambach van Caldenborgh die schouten en schepen was in Houthem, Berg en Terblijt. Door het zoeken naar de verklaring van schouten en schepenen kwam ik op jouw site. Lang leven internet!!!!
Ik wens je veel genoegen in het leven,
en hou je vast aan je dromen!!!
Vriendelijke groet,
Jody

Cees, you have a marvelous website, it is interesting to explore your work and see all your many accomplishments in life. I spent 2 weeks in Leiden several years ago, the country and its' people are wonderful, it was a great trip.
Cees--Happy New Year, and best wishes for continued success with your excellent Kloosterman website! From your distant cousin (both in blood and in miles!), Calvin Bandstra.
Cees--Gelukkig Nieuwjaar, en de beste wensen voor nog meer succes met jouw uitstekende Kloosterman website! Van je verre, verre achterneef (beide in bloed en in kilometers!), Calvin Bandstra

I believe I am a Kloosterman threw Jan Dirksz SMALLEGANGE his third wife Jannetje 'Tannetje' KLOOSTERMAN daughter of Jan Cornelis KLOOSTERMAN b. 1775.
Dank je wel voor dit verhaal. Mijn zwager Antony de Hulster is ook in Oost Duitsland geweest. Hij kwam een jaar na de oorlog pas thuis. Heeft nooit kunnen praten over die tijd. Als het rondom 4 mei was, had hij flinke nachtmerries en bleef wat vreemd. Hij is altijd vrijgezel gebleven.
I accidentaly ran onto this page (googling out "coat of arms"), and just couldn't believe it.
You're two years younger than my father, and yu've done all this by yourself? It all seems so amazing to me, all the effort, I just can't believe it...
Ik heb een beetje Nederlands geleerd, en ook met enkele Duitslanders gesproken, hier in Servië«...Doei, meneer Cees!

Beste, even een berichtje achter laten voor deze prachtige website. Wilde zelf mijn website totaal vernieuwen, maar toen ik op deze site kwam wist ik het wel. Uw site is echt een voorbeeld voor mij geweest. Dus langs deze weg, dank u wel. En vele groetjes vanuit Belgie
Hi, I teach English and I'm having a students exchange with a Dutch school. Browsed this site by chance, in search for info about history, and it proved very useful.I couldn't help visiting the other sections and found all very interesting and well organised. Congs!
I think I fell in love with your family when I stumbled into the site! It is beautiful, and full of such loveing sweetness. The photos, the final photo of your parents are heartwarming and I wish I had the same. I believe I will use the same tree whenever I finish my research!
Wonderful amount of information, thanks you Cees, for all the help it has provided. My earliest Dutch family member is Cornelia Adriaansen Van 'T Clooster who married Pieter Janse Lokker in Zierikzee on April 29, 1761. I have found in my research her name spelled with and without the "Van" and the "'T" also spelled Klooster. Anyone out there have any information on this relative?
