Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Sunday, March 31, 2013. Little Hattie's Best Dress. Aunt Hattie loved to dress her nieces and nephews up in sailor suits. Here I am with cousin Ann Eggebeen in matching sailor dresses in 1963. (And what a lush backdrop Uncle Joe's glads and dahlias make! Here's Pete in 1968, with Grandma TerMaat in Hattie's kitchen, ready to set sail. I think I've discovered why Hattie favored these Victorian. Labels: Bertha Dykstra TerMaat.

http://termaats.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Sunday, June 30, 2013. When Dad was growing up in Sheboygan, Grandpa TerMaat supported the family driving delivery trucks, but later in life he was the bridge tender for the 8th Street drawbridge and this is how his grandkids remember him. The picture above of Grandpa enjoying the view from the bridge with grandson Chris dates from around 1957. The brick building visible in the background of the photo above is the C. Reiss Coal Company building. Here you can ha...

Ter Maats: April 2013
http://termaats.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Monday, April 01, 2013. I love the motley assortment of kids in these old one room schoolhouse photos. For a long time I thought we might have to enjoy them without knowing if any of these kids were our ancestors, but thanks to an assist from facial recognition software I think I have some answers. Young Anna is probably front row, first girl from the left. Wrote about attending Crescent School,. Location of Crescent School:. Labels: Anna TerMaat Simonsen.

http://termaats.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Sunday, July 18, 2010. TerMaat and B Stevens cousins visit Burton Tower. On a 1969 trip to Ann Arbor, the TerMaat kids and Brian, Lisa and Jessica Stevens went on a tour of the carillon in Burton Memorial Tower on the University of Michigan campus. I remember the demonstration was very impressive. You can get a taste of what the tour was like via YouTube here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe in a reader. Enter your email address:.

http://termaats.blogspot.com/2013/06/gone-fishing.html
Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Sunday, June 16, 2013. For Father's Day, how about a tribute to TerMaat men fishing? First, above we have a photo of Grandpa TerMaat in Eggebeen's backyard in 1955 with a big catch. You can make up your own fish story to go with this picture as there are no other details available, other than one presumes Aunt Margaret prepared a tasty meal from this! Finally, here are a few pictures of a 1964 trip again with Grandpa TerMaat, Chris, Vern (and cameraman Dad).

Ter Maats: Family Portrait with a Reg'lar Feller
http://termaats.blogspot.com/2012/12/family-portrait-with-reglar-feller.html
Photos and Flotsam from the Family Archive. Tuesday, December 04, 2012. Family Portrait with a Reg'lar Feller. This is the only formal portrait that I know of picturing all the TerMaat siblings together. Some effort went into it as you can see that Margaret, Marion and Hattie are wearing matching dresses. And Little Connie has picked out his best tie. If you look very closely, you can see that the photographer added a little blush to the cheeks. Building an amphibious vehicle. Some things about seven...
