Generation X - Rutger Branch

It is the second half of the nineteenth century when generation X grows up. Utrecht is a city with no walls anymore and with new train connections to the north, the west and the east. This generation has no memories of medieval citywalls, track boats and stagecoaches. The Netherlands were modernising quickly, although the English considered
Holland still to be "a farm at the North Sea". As a matter of fact the Netherlands were a bit backward where industry was concerned. Merchants were held in higher esteem then entrepreneurs. Being backward has its advantages though. By the time Holland catched up with the rest of the modern world, entrepreneurs could simply buy the newest technology available and beat the competition. Utrecht started industrialising mainly as an effect of the new railroads. The big economic disadvantage of not having a harbour had suddenly turned into the advantage of lying central in the Netherlands, so closest on average to all corners of the country, profiting from excellent connections thanks to the trains.

The city was rapidly expanding in all directions outside the former city walls. As it is still the case in Holland new building lots on the outskirts were meant to house people with little income, like workers and craftsmen. The new areas were therefore full of littles houses along small streets, build and rented out by private real estate developers. This was not only the case for Utrecht. For Amsterdam, where some members of the family moved to, and other cities it was exactly the same.

In the last quarter of the century many technological changes took place. In 1883 Utrecht got its first waterworks. Telephone was introduced in Utrecht in 1886. At the same time the gas grid came into existence just as electricity grids started to appear. Most services weren't available to common people, but it was clear that the world was changing rapidly. Also in the field of medicine a very important breaktrough was made. Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) developed the technique of pasteurization and demonstrated in the fifties and sixties of the nineteenth century that germs were responsible for infections. Thanks to him the concept of hygiene started to spread, an insight that has raised life expectancy considerably. And finally, let us not forget: in 1859 Charles Darwin (1809-1882) published his shocking On the Origin of Species. Thanks to his evolution theory science and the Western world could finally abolish God. As it seems that the Van Gorkom family was quite religious, this must have been real horror to them.

Simplified Van Gorkom Family Tree
Simplified family tree of the Rutger branch. The scheme is based on the parents of generation XI. In other words, we only took the members of generation X who had children, and from them we worked our way back to Rutger of generation I who once came from Gorinchem to Utrecht. It means that all ancestors are left out who did not have a descendant belonging to generation XI. For example, Abraham Thomasse van Gorkom and Anneke Heijndricx (generation III) had ten children, but only the eldest and youngest are shown as they they are the only ones with descendants belonging to generation XI.

Children of Johan Elias van Gorkom and Marretje Lummen (generation IX-jj23)
Johan Elias was son of Isaak van Gorkom and Cozijna Elisabeth Krul (VIII-i87) and grandson of Abraham van Gorkom and Elize van Werkhoven (VII-a29).

X-p50. Pietjerre Marie
Son Pietjerre Marie was born in Loosdrecht on 22 February 1850. He married in Utrecht Aletta Maria Langezaal on 4 June 1873. She was just 17 years old then, born in Utrecht on 3 July 1855 and a daughter of Gerrit Langezaal and Jannetje van Doorn. Pietjerre was a painter for his profession. At least seventeen children were born. They are mentioned on the page about generation XI. All children were born in Utrecht, where the family lived. Pietjerre died there as well on 27 March 1907, 57 years old. Aletta Maria was 72 years of age, when she died on 17 January 1928.

X-g55. Gosina Geertruida
Gosina Geertruida was born in Utrecht on 8 August 1855. She married in Utrecht Anton Blomenberg, 39 years old, on 3 August 1887. He was son of Hendrikus Albartus Blomenberg and Maria Rebecca den Haan. Gosina Geertruida became a widow on 1 October 1909 and at the age of 65 years she remarried in Utrecht on 14 October 1920 Arij van Gelder, born in Vlissingen, 64 years old. Gosina Geertruida died in Utrecht on 13 March 1932, 76 years old. Her second husband was still alive then and living in the Singelstraat.

X-jh58. Jacob Herman
Jacob Herman was born in the town of Utrecht as well, on 10 May 1858. He was a writer for his profession and was married to Aleida Elizabeth Spruijt. He had lived for some time in the Dutch East Indies and went back to Utrecht around May 1911 with his wife and younger children. The family moved for a second time to the Dutch East Indies on 25 November 1919. The children of Jacob and Aleida are listed on the page about generation XI. Probably he has been married twice, the name of the first wife being unknown. On the same home address in Java were living some children of whom it has not yet been proven by birth record whether they are the children of Jacob Herman. Yet they are listed on the page about generation XI as well and hopefully we get some clarity in the future. All of these children were born in the Dutch East Indies. (With thanks to René van de Peijl).

X-k61. Karel Louis
Karel Louis was born in Utrecht on 9 November 1861. He married Clasina Gerth in Utrecht on 27 October 1882. She was born in Leersum and a daughter of George Pieter Gerth and Wilhelmina Elisabeth van den Boogaard. The profession of Karel Louis was school headmaster. Karel Louis and Clasina had at least two children. Daughter Marretje was born in Anna Paulowna in about 1894. She married Cornelis Rentenaar in Anna Paulowna on 22 March 1819. Cornelis was born in Hoogwoud in about 1893 and was the son of Cornelis Rentenaar, farmer (agricultural worker), and Trijntje Trappel. Both Marretje and Cornelis were teachers at the elementary school. Second daughter of Karel Louis and Clasina was named Wilhelmina Elisabeth and born in Anna Paulowna in about 1895. She married Jan Hendrik Peper in Anna Paulowna on 27 October 1916. Jan Hendrik was born in Gorinchem (i.e. the city of Gorkom!) in about 1889 and was the son of Willem Peper and Jansje Smek (also Emek or Emck). Jan Hendrik was a school teacher as well. A son of this couple died in Delft in 1941. Karel Louis died in Baarn on 13 June 1936 at the age of 74. He was already a widower then. Clasina had died four years before in Baarn on 20 June 1932, 61 years old.


  
Children of Izak van Gorkom and Louisa Roä (generation IX-i18)
Izak was son of Isaak van Gorkom and Johanna Gerarda van Zantwijk (VIII-i91) and grandson of David van Gorkom and Maria Eleonora Schweijgert (VII-d58). Much information was provided by Johan van Gorkom (johan @ vangorkom.net) and his sister Loes (loes @ vangorkom.net). They are greatgrandchildren of Abraham, who is mentioned here. Information about Izak (1853) and most information about Aletta was gathered by Izak's greatgrandson John van Gorkom (john @ vangorkom.net).

X-n45. N.N.
A dead child with no name was born on 10 May 1845, two and a half months after the wedding of its parents.

X-i46. Ida Everdina
Ida was born in Utrecht on 6 April 1846 at half past six in the evening. It was a year after the marriage of her parents. Her father was a tailor at the time. They lived in the Koningsteeg at no. A.217. Her grandfather and her uncle Abraham were witnesses of the report to the register. It is very likely that Ida was the eldest. She was named after Louisa's mother Ida, about whom more is told on the Roa page. The middle name Everdina may be a reference to her uncle Evert Dirk van Bruggen (generation IX-w23), as there seems to be no other family member who is called Everdina or Evert. As a matter of fact Evert Dirk van Bruggen was the one who reported Ida's death to the register. She died on 28 September 1861, only 15 years old, on the sixth birthday of her younger brother Abraham. Evert Dirk's profession was aanspreker or grafbidder, a professional kind of Master of Ceremonies at funerals. Ida's family lived in the Pelmolenstraat at the time of her death.

X-j48. Johanna Gerarda
Johanna was born in Utrecht on 10 June 1848 and most likely named after the mother of her father, Johanna Gerarda van Zantwijk. She died in Utrecht on 2 August 1859, 11 years old. She was the first of three girls who died within a time span of two years, the next being Wilhelmina and the third Ida. The report to the death register was made by Evert Dirk van Bruggen, just like he did for Ida (above) and Wilhelmina and Johannes (below).

X-c50. Christina Gijsberta
Christina was born in Utrecht on 5 March 1850 and named after the younger sister of her mother. She died at the age of 24, on 19 February 1875. She was not married yet and lived at the address of her grandparents, Tuchthuissteeg B.273. As a matter of fact she died one month after her father. One tends to think that both of them died of an epidemic disease, especially since cholera was epidemic in 1874. More about Christina's aunt and namesake on the Roa page.

X-a51. Aletta
Aletta was born on 30 March 1851 and married Philip Phoel on 19 October 1876. As there is a lot of information about Aletta and Philip, a separate page is dedicated to this branch of the family. Please click here to go there.

X-i53. Izak
Izak was born on 26 January 1853 as son of Izak (generation IX-i18). In 1877 he married Ingetje Maria van der Hoek from Charlois. As there is much to tell about Izak, there is a separate page dedicated to his story. Please click here to go there. Visit the page about generation XI for his children.

X-a55. Abraham
As Izak in the previous section was named after his father's father, Abraham was clearly named after a brother of his father. He was born in Utrecht on 28 september 1855 and had many, many children. Click here to read much more about him.

X-w57. Wilhelmina
Wilhelmina was born in Utrecht on 28 November 1857. She might have been named after her aunt Wilhelmina, wife of Evert Dirk van Bruggen. She died in Utrecht on 20 March 1860 at the age of two. The report of her death to the register was made by Evert Dirk van Bruggen, an aanspreker as mentioned above in the paragraph about Ida (generation X-i46).

X-j60. Johannes Gerardus
Johannes was born in Utrecht on 6 February 1860. It looks like as if he was named after his grandmother Johanna Gerarda van Zantwijk, just like his older sister, who had died just half a year before Johannes was born. He died at the very young age of nine, on 18 August 1869. His uncle Evert Dirk van Bruggen made the report of his death to the register. The family of Johannes lived at the Geertekerkhof at no. B.490 at the time.

X-e62. Evert Dirk
Evert Dirk was born in Utrecht on 19 April 1862. His history is told on a separate page. Please click here to go there.


  
Children of Evert Jan van Gorkom and Henriette Carolina Maria van Kesteren (generation IX-e25)
Evert Jan was son of Gerrit van Gorkom and Anna Margaretha van der Veen (VIII-g95) and grandson of David van Gorkom and Willemina Gerrits (VII-d66). Much information was provided by Han van Bemmel.

X-a54. Anna Margaretha
Anna Margaretha was born in Amersfoort on 2 December 1854. A death record in Doorn mentions her death in The Hague on 19 October 1905, being single, 50 years old.

X-h56. Henri Carel Marie
Henri Carel Marie was born on 15 January 1856, also in Amersfoort. On 8 May 1884 he married in Amsterdam Johanna Wilhelmina van den Bosch, born in 's-Gravenzande on 4 April 1856, daughter of Iman Jacob van den Bosch and Johanna Wilhemina Visser. Henri Carel Mari was a general practitioner for his profession. The first child, Evert Jan, was born in Heusden. A second, but lifeless child was born in Heusden on 8 May 1890. Apparently the family left for South Africa, as a third child was born in Johannesburg (S.A.) on 7 January 1895, called Wilhelmina Henriette. Henri Carel Marie died in Pretoria (S.A.) on 21 July 1903, only 47 years old. His widow went back to Holland and remarried in Groningen on 18 August 1909 Karl Fredric August Koch, widower of Adelheid Rothschild, son of Carel Frederik Koch and Catharina Maria van Zanten. Karl Fredric August was born in Schiedam about 1859 and was a professor of surgery. Johanna Wilhelmina van den Bosch died in Baarn on 15 December 1937, 81 years old. Karl Fredric was still alive at that time. Daughter Wilhelmina Henriette married in Groningen on 30 January 1918 Gerrit Jacobus Kapteijn, a mining engineer, 34 years old, son of Jacobus Cornelius Kapteyn, professor of astronomy, and Catharina Elisabeth Kalshoven.

The postcard above (click on the images to enlarge them) was kindly provided by a British collector of old cards and envelopes. It was sent in July 1895 to Henri Carel Marie and Johanna Wilhelmina from Lourenço Marques, the old name of Maputo, capital of Mozambique. Sender was an E.v.A. who was a niece apparently. She tells that they will be sailing the next day and says goodbye from aboard Hare Majesteit Koningin Wilhelmina der Nederlanden (Her Majesty Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands). At the time there was already a railway connection between Johannesburg and Lourenço Marques, so the niece had clearly been visiting her uncle and aunt after which she had taken the train to catch the boat. Probably the initials v.A. stand for the family name Van Assum. The wife of Henri Carel Marie had a sister Maria van den Bosch, who was twelve years older and had married in 1866 Johan Herman van Assum. The niece also refers to a lost "portrait of Iman's fiancee" in a very casual way. Very likely this is her brother Iman Jan Jacob van Assum, who was a son of Johan Herman van Assum and Maria van den Bosch and who married in 1899 at the age of 26.

X-e57. Everdina Johanna
Everdina Johanna was born in Amersfoort on 13 September 1857. She married in Marthinus Wesselschoon, South Africa, in 1878 Hendrik Willem van Rossem, son of Cornelis van Rossem and Dina Cornelia Claasen. They had seven children, all born in South Africa. Hendrik Willem died in Amsterdam on 31 May 1921. Everdina Johanna died in Huis ter Heide on 1 February 1934, 76 years old.


  
Children of Wilhelm Johan van Gorkom and Henriette Carolina Maria van Kesteren (generation IX-w27)
Wilhelm Johan was son of Gerrit van Gorkom and Anna Margaretha van der Veen (VIII-g95) and grandson of David van Gorkom and Willemina Gerrits (VII-d66). Much information was provided by Han van Bemmel.

X-aj61. Adriana Johanna
Adriana Johanna was born in Groningen on 7 July 1861. She passed away after 19 months on 10 June 1863, three months before her brother was born. She was probably named after her father's sister Adriana Johanna who had died in 1858 at the age of 27.

X-e63. Evert Jan
Evert Jan was born in Groningen on 12 September 1863. Eight months later he died on 3 June 1864. He was clearly named after his father's deceased brother.

X-e66. Evert Jan
A second Evert Jan was born in Groningen on 22 October 1866 and the first one to survive childhood. His parents were already married for seven years at the day of his birth. He was 24 years old when he made his will in Leeuwarden on 27 March 1891. Two months later he moved to South-Africa. He married in Johannesburg, South Africa, on 29 February 1892 Jeanne Henriette Struben. He was a notary. Three children were born, Jeanne Henriette, being the first on 26 May 1896, and Wilhelm Johan on 10 April 1897 as second child, both in Johannesburg. Their third child Adriaan Christiaan was born in The Hague on 22 May 1899. It is not clear where the family lived around 1900, as the youngest fell victim to the Spanish flue in South-Africa in 1918. An article from South Africa Magazine, dated 28 December 1918, tells:
SOUTH AFRICA'S INFLUENZA VICTIMS
We continue the sad toll of South Africa's terrible losses by the awful influenza scourge. Mr. Adriaan Christiaan van Gorkom, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. van Gorkom, who died at Grahamstown, was a medical student at Grahamstown, where his elder brother, Willy, is also studying. Recently Mrs. Van Gorkom had a letter from the younger boy stating that Willy was ill with influenza. At the same time the news came that Adriaan had also contracted the disease and had succumbed. Of an exceptionally fine physique, standing 6 ft. 2 in. [188 cm], he was the embodiment of sterling manhood. As a student he promised great things."
Willy (Wilhelm) clearly recovered, as he married Bessie Marais in July 1926. On 27 March 1927 their daughter Wanda Elisabeth was born. Three years later Willy's father Evert-Jan died in South-Africa.

The image of the envelop below was kindly provided by a British collector. Evert Jan was only 22 years old, when he posted this letter.
X-w68. Wilhelm Johan
Wilhelm Johan was born in Groningen on 2 January 1868. He married in Manaldumadeel (Friesland) on 10 July 1894 Wilhelmina Meyners, born in Hoorn (Noord-Holland) about 1869, daughter of Hendrik Johannes Meyners and Margarethe Cornelia Johanna Verboon Schouten. A daughter, Wilhelmina Christina Hermina, was born on 13 September 1901. Wilhelm Johan was a medical doctor. He published several books and brochures about infectious diseases like malaria, beriberi, smallpox and tuberculosis. One was a brochure called Helpt ons de tuberculose te bestrijden! (Help us fight tuberculosis), first published in 1910. It contains an illustration made by the artist Hoynck van Papendrecht (article about him in Dutch), who was a cousin-in-law of Wilhelm Johan as he was married to Johanna Phillippina van Gorkom, daughter of Wilhelm's uncle Gerrit (generation X-j62). As appears from the newspaper clipping below, Wilhelm was appointed head of the Bubonic Plague Control Service of West-Java (former Dutch East Indies) in 1915, but died the same year at the age of 47.
X-j69. Jeanne Marie
Jeanne Marie was born in Groningen on 17 September 1869. She married Cornelis Adriaan Bergsma in Leeuwarden (Friesland) on 18 August 1892. He had a degree in law. Cornelis was son of Jacob Hendrik Bergsma and jonkvrouwe (Lady) Arendina Wichers. Jacob Hendrik was public prosecutor and Minister of Colonies and had an impressive career in the Dutch East Indies. (More in Dutch in Biografisch Woordenboek van Nederland). The marriage of Jeanne Marie was annulled, however, after 21 years on 22 August 1913.

X-c65. Charles Francois
In Leiden a third child of Gerrit was born on 16 September 1865, called Charles Francois. Apparently he was named after his father's younger brother Charles Francois, who had died in Leiden at the age of 22 the year before. This second Charles however died in Amsterdam on 5 April 1877 at the age of 11.

X-s68. Sara Jacoba Susanna Carolina
Apparently the family had moved to Amsterdam as Sara Jacoba Susanna Carolina was born in this city on 16 May 1868. She married in Amsterdam on 30 November 1893 Adriaan Slotemaker, born on 4 February 1862. Later in life he was a judge at a Gerechtshof (Court of Appeal). His father was the afore-mentioned Lambertus Hendrik Slotemaker, the same man who wrote the obituary of Sara's father Gerrit. Adriaan Slotemaker died in 1935 and Sara in Geneva on 9 October 1946.

Four children were born. Sara Jacoba Susanna Carolina Slotemaker was born in Amsterdam on 16 December 1894. She married in Bussum on 20 November 1918 Dr. Claude Auguste Crommelin, physicist, son of Robbert Daniel Crommelin and Julie Elisabeth Tutein Nolthenius. Claude Auguste was born in Nieuwer-Amstel on 22 December 1878. For him it was his second marriage. He was divorced from Anna Petronella de Kanter on 15 February 1917.

It was permitted by royal decree, dated 3 August 1900, that his name was changed to Gerrit van Gorkom Slotemaker. Apparently his mother wanted to keep the name of her father alive, as she had no brothers anymore in 1900. Gerrit seems to have died at a young age. The fourth child was Adriaan Slotemaker, born in Bussum on 9 April 1903.

X-hm71. Henri Mari
Also born in Amsterdam was Henri Mari, on 17 September 1871, the second son of Gerrit and Sara Jacoba Susanna Carolina. He died there on 5 April 1873 unfortunately.
