New Worlds Researching the Old World
|
So much of research into the history of my family has introduced
me to different fields of research. In an effort to share the excitement
and expansion of what I have been able to discover on the Internet,
I have developed a new area for these pages called
New Worlds Researching the Old World. I hope you enjoy where
these doors to new research lead:

A History of Northern Europe

A History

A year ago I was searching for a history of the Netherlands from
the time of Christ to the 16th century. I could find nothing. There
were some references to enclypedia URL's. But there was no history,
especially translated into English.
This year, I discovered Medevil History Sites. WOW! I especially would like to introduce you to
Fryslân, Saterland and Nord-Friesland - The three regions where Frisian is still spoken
This web site introduced me to that history. You will leave my site
to enjoy all this information. So when you want to come back, click

The Ships That Brought Our Families To America

Interest in how the Faber's emigrated to Northern New Jersey has
me doing research in the area of ships and ways our family came
to America. The Veendam was the ship my family used to move to the
new world.
Are you looking for the ship your family came to America?

Job Ulbes FABER was born November 2, 1827 in Britswerd, Baarderadeel,
Friesland, Netherlands. Conversations with Ap Vandongeren and correspondence
with Carla Divinsky & Louis Meylemans has produced good results
in gathering information about my gggrandfather. Research Work Sheets
is an area where you and I can look at links, documents, and research
materials to help me further my information but also help you in
learning ways of doing on-line research. This area will be constantly
changing.

Photography

As a little boy, I had an interest in photography. My first camera
was a "Kodak Brownie" and I continue to enjoy, as a hobby, all areas
of photography. This area of research covers the use of photography
and its application in research and presentation of that research.

The Church and Her Influence

Church
History Research
|
The church has been an important part of our family history. Many
family members have been trained in theology and have been pastors
of churches. In this area of interest I am trying to explore what
the church was like during a period of history. What influence did
she have on our family. I want to discuss the history of the Christian
Reformed Church and the Dutch Reformed Church.
