NEWS ARCHIVE
I have added a News Archive section that will store all the news
updates that have been added to the site. Use the trusty dusty nav
button above and to the left to go there if you want to read the
archive page, later as more news build up, I think I will Cut N Paste it
into a file that I'll store off the site and have it available IF someone
wants it. Working on the Birthday Calendar and an Anniversary
Calendar, that will be appearing soon, so make sure we have the
Birthday and Anniversary info for your family group. Also, I knew it
was only a matter of time before someone brought up a HUGE clan
reunion and get together, it has been mentioned so keep it in mind.
I have invited Kim, and or Dede to begin the planning stages, so
something should be hitting the site soon. I have suggested planning it
for a year or so from now so that EVERYone can begin saving and
planning.....BUT nothing is set in stone at this point, other than the
thought. Ok..Im gone for now.
Love ya all...

All the family memebers that I have email address for received a copy
of the Email that the site received from another Mike Idsinga, this
one somewhere in Europe, possibly Holland. (GOOD LORD....another
Mike Idsinga, the World is definately NOT safe.. :)
I am very excited and have written him back and am anxiously waiting
for a response. He sent me a copy of the Van Idsinga family crest, Im
posting them both here for you to see and compare. They are very
similar. Check it out.
Love ya all..

The van Idsinga Family Crest
|
Note the similarities between them, the shield is basically the same, the Helmut and the
Peacock appear in both. I will be digging out the information that came with the Idsinga Crest
when I bought it a few years back and posting it so that everyone can see what the symbolism
means. I'll get on that soon .
Love ya all...
