My great grandfather, Bouwe van der Laan, was the oldest son and he is the second from the right in the back row. This whole family, with the exception of Bouwe, moved to Michigan in the late 1800's. Many of their descendants can be found there today. This picture was taken in Heerenveen Friesland, around 1890, shortly before the move.
