. Jacob Riel married Jacobje in February 10, 1882 in Ermelo, the
Netherlands. They then immigrated to the USA February 22, 1882. About the same time, two of
Jacobje's sisters, their husbands and children, as well as her mother and brother, also emigrated.
Beerd Fidder moved with his family to Orange City Iowa.
I have yet to find any information on Jacobje's mother, Jannigje van Aperlo Fidder, who emigrated with them.
