In juli 2000 kregen wij wederom bezoek uit Amerika, ditmaal uit het plaatsje Pella in IOWA waar bijna alle inwoners van Nederlandse afkomst zijn. Zo kan het dus gebeuren dat er in Amerika mensen rondlopen die zowel afstammen van Herman Abramse van der Beek (mijn stamvader van vaders kant) als van Cornelis de Boef (mijn stamvader van moeders kant). We waren dan ook zeer vereerd met het bezoek van Jim DEBOEF en zijn vrouw
Mary Ann
