Boon-family from the Netherlands

PLEASE, need help!!!!!!
I'm looking for descendants of 4 brothers of my maternal grandmother.
Klaas Boon born 7 febr 1880
Pieter Boon born 7 june 1886
Leonardus Boon born 26 May 1888
Willem Johannes Boon born 19 December 1894
They were children of Pieter Boon born 5 April 1851, Den Helder and Gijsje Kindt born 13 March 1855, Den Helder, The Netherlands.
The children were all born on the Island Texel, Den Burg, The Netherlands.
My grandmother Marie Boon born 18 December 1884 went in 1908 as future bride of my grandfather(Aris Eelman) to her brother Klaas Boon, who at that time lived in Passaic NJ.
A few years later the brothers Pieter, Leonardus and Willem Johannes also travelled to the States. Probably the Michigan-area.
I have a pic of William John Boon (he changed his name into English) with his wife(don't know a name) and may be a daughter. At least I think it is a daughter, because the daughter looks very much like her niece, cousin Nelly Gesina Eelman(my mother). On the backside of that pic is written:"For cousin Nelly from Uncle Bill".
My gr-uncle William(Bill) is dressed in an army-uniform.
Pic is taken somewhere 1920-1925. May be earlier.
If there is anyone who can inform me, I would be very happy!!!!!!
If wanted I'll send the pic by email.

Hoping for information, regards Joan B Schuitenmaker, The Netherlands
