  • My father: Piet Kuipers, from Franeker,
    Friesland, NL. died just after the 2nd world war in Amsterdam. One of his brothers and familie left for Australia in the early '50. I'm living in RSA since 1957. I had contact with him and his daughter "Hye" Susan. She was not healthy at that time. we lost contact. I would like to hear from the other familie.
