  Stonehenge: One of these guys?

http://militieregisters.nl/zoek#?l0...

Apr-03-13  thomastonk: <Stonhenge: One of these guys?> Why only one of them? I'm serious. I looked at the newspaper archive of the royal library in The Hague and found a K.Geus winning first prices as follows: in December 1904 in the first class, in August 1905 in the second class, and in November 1905 even in the "hoofdklasse".

  Tabanus: https://www.genealogieonline.nl/en/... is probably him.

  Stonehenge: <16th October 1885> That doesn't fit with that newspaper article (he was 74 in november 1952).

<27th October 1957 in Delft> You mean Haarlem, 1959?

Trouw, 30-10-1959, p. 8

Apr-21-22  Jan Kersten: I just copied the data from De Jong. He made a mistake. According to wiewaswie.nl Klaas Geus died 27th October 1959 in Delft. At the time of his death he was living in Haarlem. That sounds a bit odd. I mean Haarlem was his home town.
