Genealogy is incurable


My name is Anthony Hofstee. I was born in the Netherlands and moved to Canada at age 5. My parents and my three brothers came to Canada to have a better future. In this my parents had success as all four sons did very well for themselves. Before I retired I was a High School teacher of French and occasionally German. My hobbies include music, stamp collecting and genealogy. My wife and I and all four of our children enjoy music. However my passion is genealogy. For over 30 years I have done extensive research on my wife's family (Neef) and also on my own. At present I am helping several people with their family search as well. That means a lot of the families listed below are not related to me except perhaps in the 23rd generation or further back.

It is now the 5th of August. It has been hot and humid for several weeks. We had some heavy thunderstorms last night. We also got some much needed rain. Today it is hot and humid again. I spent the whole month of May and part of June in hospital. I had a very serious heart attack and due to several complications I spent 4 weeks in intensive care. I have been home since June 11 and am feeling pretty good. Thanks to new files on the internet I was able to find a death date for which I had been searching for over 15 years. I am still finding more ancestors. Every time I think that I have found everything possible, more new information becomes available either on the web or in one of the genealogy magazines that arrive at my house. I am thankful for the people that put their pedigrees (kwartierstaten) on-line. I am also thankful for the people that volunteer to help digitalize records. I am also thankful that most Dutch records are free to search. I hope it stays that way.
