My great grandfather, Johann Dirk Balster, lived in Orstfriesland and he was married to a Hilke Catharina Borchers.They had 5 children, Hilde 1823, Heinrich(my great grandfather)1827, Gesche 1830, Deitrich, and Henry 1841.
They apparently lived in Germany since my grandfather Harry Balster emigrated in 1881.
I have no idea if there is any connection to the
Borchers you have information on but I thought I'd give it a go.
