<p>[QUOTE="Gerhardus von Hebel, post: 2533099, member: 82258"]Engelhardus (or Engelhardt) was my great-uncle (my grandfather’s brother) and he was born in the Netherlands in the city of Groningen. The surname sounds unmistakably German, but the family had been resident in the Netherlands for about three generations at the time of his birth. I personally never knew him, but I still own a letter he sent from the USA to my father. Engelhardus was also a sculptor who participated in the sculpting of the facades of the building of the Groningen Provincial Authority “Provinciehuis” in the second decade of the 20th century. That is from personal information by my father who was his nephew. Back in the eighties there was no contact anymore. My parents assumed that he had died. Turns out Everhardt died in 1987 and survived both of them! Which I didn't know until today.... His wife was called Gloria as I remember.</p><p><br /></p><p>Gerard von Hebel[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
