Dear fellow listers,
I joined this group because my ancestor Auswanderer indicated he hailed from
Grafschaft Tecklenburg. His name was changed, I imagine by the Dutch
townclerk, to Luyckenaar. We suspect he actually came from Lienen near
Ösnabrück.
I have some German Lückeners on my site from Lienen and I have my German
ancestor Evert Luijkenaar but have not been able to connect the two with any
certainty. Any help is greatly appreciated.
You may wish to look at:
