Gedcom update-3/26/2013
It's been almost 4 months since my last gedcom update. I didn't take the time to compute how many documents or individuals were added but I can honestly say, it was not a small amount. I plan on making gedcom updates monthly to reflect my work.
The main reason it's taking more time is I'm also reconciling my records with the new FamilySearch FamilyTree as well as combining the many duplicate records that are out there…and there are many. Some individuals had more than 6 records! It takes a lot of work combining these records as well as adding all my sources as well.
Why do all this work? I spend alot of my time working on this project. It's one of my life goals (besides being the best husband and father that I can be!) to have as complete a family history as possible, not just for myself but for later generations! I try to be as thorough as I can. Heck, I'm still learning and fixing mistakes I've made myself in the past 20 years. Family history is a continual learning curve. Take that and add all the FamilySearch submissions and you have a handful!
By taking the time now, adding my sources and reasons why I believe my information is the most correct should ensure less mistakes in the future.
How can you help? Be patient as I work. Pray for me. Ask questions! Send more information my way including photos of significant events.

Their father is variously known as Hindrik or Hinderk Geerts. He was born on 23 February 1808 in Westerlee (community of Scheemda), but in Genlias the date of 6 March 1808 is mentioned. Probably that is the date of his baptism. He was a farmhand and later chimney sweep. He died on 18 December 1891 in Veendam. He was married on 15 December 1826 in Muntendam with Trientje (also called Trijntje) Nantkes Pater, maid and labourer, born 18 January 1805 in Meeden (acoording to Genlias on 7 January 1804; is 18-1-1805 her date of baptism?). She was a daughter of Nantko Hindriks Pater and Martje Tammes Ebbens. She died on 12 August 1892 at Korte Akkers (Veendam.

According to birth records (taken from Allegroningers.com, Grietje Bos was born 6 Nov 1832 instead of the aforementioned 6 Nov 1833. Records have been changed to reflect this change.
