The small database indexed here contains about 500 individuals and 140 surnames, mostly AMERONGEN and ADEGEEST. My grandmother Maria VAN DER HOEVEN was a daughter of Petronella van Amerongen. Maria married twice, and among the descendants from her first marriage are many family members carrying the surname ADEGEEST. By coincidence there are several ADEGEEST in the ahnentafel of Maria's second spouse Leendert VERWOERD. You will find those in the van Duuren index on the main page as part of the ancestry of our grandchildren.

We do appreciate your help with our ongoing research. For any contributions or for inquiries on your ancestors email genealogy at verwoerd dot info.
