|
LAMBERTUS4 VAN DER HEYDE (JOZEF3, JOHANNES ARNOLDI2, ARNOLDUS1) was born 16 November 1827 in Nistelrode, Province of North Brabant, Netherlands, and died 04 May 1902 in Yoestown, Arkansas and is buried in Gill cemetery at Crawford County, Arkansas.. He married MARIA MAGDALENA VINKENVLEUGEL Bet. 1857 - 1858 in The Catholic Church at Wrightstown, Brown County, Wisconsin., daughter of HERMANUS VINKENVELUEGEL and HENDRINA HAKEN. She was born 06 September 1842 in Erp, Province of North Brabant, Netherlands, and died 20 December 1900 in Yoestown, Arkansas and is buried in Gill cemetery at Crawford County, Arkansas. Her birth date is also given as 7 September 1842.
Lambertus Van der Heyde also known as "Lambert Vanderheiden". Lambertus and his sister Johanna Marie were twins.
Lambert developed stomach trouble and died in his son, Bennett's, arms, at age 74. He is buried at the Gill Cemetery, Van Buren, Crawford County, Arkansas, which is four miles from Alma, Arkansas. The grave was on a hill in the cemetery. The marker was made of wood and a grass fire in the cemetery destroyed all the wooden markers. His grave cannot be found.
Mary Vinkenvleugel was also known as Mary Fink. Her father Hermanus changed his last name to "Vinke" when he arrived at America. Mary probably changed her name also.
A letter written in 1885 by Mary's father states that he was known as "Herman Fink" in America. The letter states that Hermanus left Dinxperlo (about 1850) with his wife and five children, and landed in Boston where he worked for seven years before moving to Wrightstown, Brown County, Wisconsin. Mary was not an only child, although she was the youngest of five. By 1885 she was known to be living in Arkansas, with 13 children, two of whom were married.
