| Notes for Hendrika (Hattie) (Spouse 3) |
"Jane Hoopman came to America because her father had died and her mother had remarried a man that did not get alone with her mother's, Hattie's, children. Jane was mistreated and on some nights, had to sleep in a ditch near what was her father's home. She came to America with friends of her family. On the boat she met Aaron Ruesink and 4 years later they had saved enough money to move to Wisconsin and get married. After clearing the land and building a house near Sheyboygan Wisconsin on the west shore of lake Michigin, Jane Hoopman sent for her mother Hattie to come to America and help with raising her new family. Jane's story is a great compliment to the Ruesink Family story."79
Or was her name Hendrika Oberink?35

Subject: Re: Hoopman
Message: Roelof was the son of Garrit Jan Hoopman and Hendrika Oberink. Hendrika was Garrit's third wife. I believe the other two were Gesina te Veene and Willemina Eppink. Between all three wives there were 13 children. It is believed they immigrated in 1857 to America, but it would have to have been only their children as Garrit and all three of his wives were deceased at the time. I do not know where they entered the country, but the eventually ended up in the Fillmore County, Minnesota area. Thanks, Bruce Rohl24

Message: Diane, I believe your Roelof Hoopman is the brother to my wife's 2nd great grandmother Berendina Hoopman. Her father was Garrit Jan Hoopman and mother was Hendrika Oberink. Hendrika was Garrit's 3rd wife according to my information. Garrit had 13 children through 3 wives. Also, if my information is correct only some of the children immigrated as both parents were deceased when they did immigrate. Look forward to hearing from you. Bruce24 |
