Journey to His Past

Author: Brenda Leyndyke /

Welcome to Journey to His Past!  I am Brenda (Glover) Leyndyke, current author of "Journey to the Past" blog.  I have created this blog to share with you my journey as I (and sometime's he/Kirk) research the Leyndyke/Luyendyk, vandenBos, VanOeveren, Kosten, Corcoran, Schmitt, Dollaway, and Denny surnames.

I have to thank Tina Lyon's of Gen Wish List for the idea of starting a separate blog for her husband's side of the family.  She started Mr. Gen Wish List to tell the story of her husband's family and I thought it was an excellent idea.  (Thank you, Tina!)   So, here it is Journey to His Past!  I hope you enjoy the journey!

Thank you Betty and Kirk.

I'll enjoy this blog because I have a lot of Dutch! Maybe Kirk and I will be related, wouldn't that be something. Happy researching new territory.

Brenda Leyndyke said...

Barbara, yes that would be something. I have found Dutch research a lot easier than some of my family's research.

Hello and welcome to geneablogging! I know your blog will be great, because I, too, am an unashamed parent to multiple dustbunnies!

Hi Brenda,

on a well known Dutch genealogy site I noticed some Luijendijks. Possibly they are of interest to you. If I can be of help to you, pse let me know.

Peter, thank you for sharing this website. I hope others researching the family will find it useful. I will be sure to check it out. I went to your blog and I love the pictures. I just need my computer translator to work and I can enjoy it more.

Thank you for having a look at my blog. I will be writing in English more and more e.g. the ones about the photo's a couple of my former colleagues saved from the dustbin http://patmcast.blogspot.com/2012/03/saved-from-dustbin-2.html
It is also a fine example of the nice contacts one may be getting writing a blog.
I'll keep an eye on Luijendijk mentions.

Peter, your blog translated without any trouble using bing translator. I agree, Peter, I have made a lot of contacts through blogging. Good luck with your blog.
