Twins, Peter and Jacob, were born in a log cabin in Amsterdam. He was born with a slightly deformed mouth and children had a tendency to avoid him, yet he was a playful boy and fond of company. He loved the hills to the south in the summer, and the big hill below the Verwolf house in the winter for sledding.

In the late spring of 1919 he he contracted rheumatic fever, apparently due to diseased tonsils. For several weeks he was confined to the house and died of a sudden and total cardiac arrest the morning of July 11, 1919, at the young age of 10.
