Onderwerp: Missing gravestones

I have a great grandmother (Jeltje Bakker) and two of her children ( Antje and Jan Douma) who all died on Feb 20 1913 and are buried in Oldelamer, Westsellingwerf, Friesland.  I also have a newspaper article from Feb 2013 where one of my great uncles is visiting those graves so I know that they should be there, but I can't find them on this site.  I'm wondering why they aren't here and if there is some other way that I can find them.  Thanks.  And I appologize for my English - I can read a bit of Dutch but cant write it as I came to Canada as a very young child.

Re: Missing gravestones

Hello Aukje,

In Oldelamer I have made all the grafstone pictures.
From this 3 people I have no pictures, why ???.

Oldelamer has a Club, where I have asked or they
can help my on this pictures.
When I get them, I send de pictures to You and
to graftombe.
Don't send my your email adress, I can get that, because
I am the moderator of Graftombe.
Learning English I did for 60 years ago.

I hope to get the pictures.
Greetings Cor
