My grand-father Josephus wilhelmus Swagemakers and his brother Willie came from Rotterdam to USA in ohhh maybe 1920s...I wondered if thats was a relation of yours? Sincerely Michele Swagemakers...They lived on 9 Snooball Straat and owned the textile in town...
[ Posted byLillia-N, August 13, 2009 0:37 ] Hi Michele,
Well it's nice to hear from someone with the same family name, i don't know for sure if were family though! if your family do relate to the painter Theo Swagemakers then we do because he was a nephew of my grandfather. There is a family member of myself living in Rotterdam, he's having a Transport bisness, if im right his name is Ron or Rob Swagemakers, he knows a lot about our family because he sorted out a lot and contacted a lot of family members, unfortunately he never answered my replies.
well hope to hear from you again. it would be nice to family would'nt it ! :)
kindest regards,
Lillian Overeem-Swagemakers
