We have received the following from a Slotemaker in Holland. Check out the Dutch Slotemaker website mentioned in the message.

Hello,

My name is Rob Slotemaker and I live in The Netherlands. I'm pretty sure that we aren't family, because my family primarily lived in a city called Beverwijk. However, I wanted to let you know this: in the history of your family you wrote that the village they've lived in is called Noord Sharwoude. That's not how we spell it in Dutch. Over here we spell it as Noord Scharwoude.

By the way, for those interested in my family tree, you can find it at http://home.hetnet.nl/~slotemaker/index_en.html. It doesn't look as good as yours though :-) !

You all take care over there. Even in The Netherlands there aren't many people called Slotemaker, so to some extend we somehow seem to have a "connection".

Best regards,

Rob Slotemaker
