By 2-10-1877 do you mean 2 Oct or Feb 10? I found this birth in Ferwerderadeel, Friesland:

Geboorteakte Ferwerderadeel, 1877
Aangiftedatum 12 februari 1877, akte nr. 43
Pier van Dijk, geboren 10 februari 1877
Zoon van Bauke Wytses van Dijk en Frouwkje Piers van der
Zaag

Taking the Dutch naming pattern into consideration, it's possible that Barney and Frances were American versions of Bauke and Frouwkje. And now it makes sense that the following is your Johanna:

Geboorteakte Hemelumer Oldeferd, 1881
Aangiftedatum 21 oktober 1881, akte nr. 160
Johanna Gersee, geboren 21 oktober 1881
Dochter van Hendrik Gersee en Trijntje Wolthuizen

Trina and Henry were named for Hendrik and Trijntje. Does this information fit with what you know about your family?
