Re: Sikkenga family from Uithuizermeeden, Netherlands

Hello again,

Tonnis Sikkenga died on 24 December 1881 in Muskegon, MI and is buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Muskegon.

In the 1884 Census for Muskegon it lists:

-Arentji Sikkenga, age 62, widow (first name spelling was incorrect)
-Egbert, son
-John, son
-Wiggert, son
-Jacob, son

So, if you check out the Evergreen Cemetery, I'm sure that Arendtje is buried next to her husband.

Jan/John Sikkenga (born 22 June 1847) died on 25 May 1920. On the death certificate they had his birthdate as 21 June 1849 (2 years and a day off). He was still living at 133 Fourth Street in Muskegon when he died. He died not long after the 1920 census was taken. He was buried on 28 May 1920 in the Oakwood Cemetery in Muskegon.

Hope this helps.

John
