EIJTINK, EITING, PENTERMAN posted by Andy Wegner on Thursday, June 8, 2000

I am corresponding with someone in Netherlands who has found the marriage of: Derk Hendrik PENTERMAN and Anna EIJTINK. They emigrated from Ruurlo (near Lichtenvoorde) Netherlands to USA in 1870. At that time they had four children: Jan (Johann?) Willem Jan Hendrik Johanna Engelina I am trying to make a connection between the above, and my great grand half aunt, Johanna EITING. She was born August 22, 1819, in Barlo (near Bocholt) Germany very near the Holland border. After 1822, I believe she lived across the border in Zieuwent (near Lichtenvoorde) Netherlands. I know that two of her brothers, two of her half brothers, and possibly a sister left Zieuwent in 1846 for Boston and later arrived in Brown County Wisconsin (in 1850), and that another brother of hers left Lichtenvoorde for Brown County in 1870. For the above reasons, I suspect Anna EIJTINK PENTERMAN may be the same person as my Johanna EITING. Is anybody researching the PENTERMAN's, or know of a connection?

His name was John J HOOTMAN, his mother's name was Mathilde Audrienne NICOLLE (HOOTMAN); Mathilde was born in Princeton Wisconsin (1898); John and his twin brother James, were born in Green Bay, WI. Based on this information., I am assuming that Mathilde's parents, Jules (or Julius) and Justina (nee MOURNIERE) lived, at least for a time, in that area. Jules Nicolle was from France (maybe Bordeaux), Justina from Belgium. I have no idea when they immigrated to this country, or to Canada; have not found them on any of the ships' listings available on the web. I am trying to locate 1) any information on Mathilde 2) any information on her parents, e.g., when they arrived in North America, which port, which ship, where died, buried. 3) any information on Mathilde's husband, Major Herald M Hootman, who died in New Guinea in 1943. Mathilde and Herald, were divorced, or separated, about or before the twins birth in 1930. 4) where married I have information on the grandchildren, great grandchildren, and gggrandchildren which I am more than willing to share.
