Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • Hierbij wil ik u mijn condoleances overbrengen. Ik ben de dochter van Anna Kalma, de zus van jullie vader Dirk Dirks Kalma. Ik ben al heel lang op zoek naar familie in Canada, maar kon steeds niks vinden. Er is jaren geleden een stamboom gemaakt van de Kalma families en dat heeft tot twee boeken geleid, waarin we allemaal beschreven staan. Heel graag zou ik eens contact hebben met familie daar, en hoop dat iemand reageert. Met vriendelijke groet Anneke Fontijn - Posted by: Anneke Fontijn Guijt (Achternicht) on: Jun 07, 2025
