1. [Dutch-MW] Re: O'Hare Airport threatens old cemeteries - Dutch? [1]
Randy, I really don't know who all is buried there. I'm hoping to get a reading, or at least a more comprehensive list of names, but that may take a while. It wouldn't surprise me if there were Dutch in the area. Many of the burials are folks from Schale, Westfalen, which I'm finding had many ties to the northern & central part of the Netherlands. Several families at Schale can trace ancestry to the Rump family which had descendants in the Netherlands, plus Kr. Tecklenburg (Westfalen), and
2. [Dutch-MW] Subscription [1]
Daer Dutch Midwest, I am wondering if I have been taken off the e-mailing list? I haven't received any newsletters since August 7th or hasn't anyone been writing with any questions. Judi Van Meerten e-mail address: jvm@netnitco.net
3. RE: [Dutch-MW] Family Records [1]
Fastback is an old program used to backup files. When the files are created they are also compressed and thus cannot be read by another program unless the program understands the decompression algorithm. I used to have a copy of this program but I no longer have it. You might want to check the web for this.

Hi Gloria, Being an old reporter, myself, I know someone of good knowledge of what genealogical damage can occur needs to collar some reporter, preferably near the site and be aggressive. One of the newspapers must have an office close by, either the big Chicago paper or weeklies. They may have to bug them by telephone and in person. Some editor eventually will give in. Good luck, Ernie Heltsley

6. [Dutch-MW] van den Berg name [1]
Did I read on Dutch Midwest newsletters that someone was reseaching Peter van den Berg? I just found out that Peter was a brother to my husband's g-g-grandmother Claartje. Claartje and her husband Jan Van Meerten came to America but returned to the Netherlands. I just received information that Peter was married to Elisabeth Geertrui Kinds and that they emigrated in 1878. I someone can help me with information, I would enjoy hearing from you.

7. [Dutch-MW] Family Records [1]
Dear Randy; I have some family records given to me on floppy discs. They are formatted for MS-DOS, and were recorded with a program called Fastback Plus v.2.01. I cannot find this program anywhere, and probably would not know what to do with it if I did. If you could help me figure out what to do with these to read them I would appreciate it. Thanks much, Carl W. Veenstra cnmveenstra@home.com
8. RE: [Dutch-MW] Dutch travel in the new world [1]
To Randy Bosma and list: Randy, on July 24 you asked for info on the travel routes of the Chicago area Dutch immigrants in the 1840s. I suggest that you read chapter 4: "The Journey Across" in my book Faith and Family: Dutch immigration and Settlement in the United States, 1820-1920, published in 2000 by Holmes & Meier of New York. Another suggestion is to run the names of the immigrants in my Family Tree Maker's CD #269 Dutch in America, 1800s. This will reference the ship lists, which tell the port

11. Re: [Dutch-MW] Fastback [1]
I don't know if the site is real or not, but here's a place that lists Fastback for sale at $10 - $15. http://members.aol.com/randomaccs/sales.htm Google brings back a bunch of hits for the program.

12. [Dutch-MW] Fastback [1]
Another thing you might try with regard to the records stored on the old program: If you are in a metropolitan area, or even if you are near a town of any size, find a "computer geek" store, or rather a place that fixes computers, etc. They usually have someone on staff that is knowledgeable about archaic stuff, and if they can't help you unlock the data, they often know someone who can for a reasonable price. I had a program that was loaded onto 5 1/4" floppies, from the days when computers had t
