The Eelman-family

The surname Eelman is one of the oldest Texel-names. Nowadays the telephone directory gives over the 70 entries for Eelman in Texel, although at least 46 members of the family emigrated in the period 1850-1920. The roots of this mennonite family are situated near the village De Waal, where the first Eelman's were farmers.

There was also a Roman Catholic family with the same surname in Texel, starting with the pilot Jacob Jansz Eelman (born around 1665). According to the book "Texelse geslachten" this family in Oudeschild is related to the mennonite family Eelman, but unfortunately their is no specific information available about the relationship between the two branches of the Eelman family.

I want to thank everyone who sent me information about this family, especially Jaap van Kuler and also Debbie Rinker, Audrianna Peters, Elizabeth Connolly, Joyce Katsma, Joan B. Schuitenmaker, Amy Valenti, Nico Lucas, Olof Eelman, Pieter Eelman, William Nico Eelman Rodriguez, Willem Eelman, Jan Burgers and Ruud Esser.
