Anna Pardeoper b in Holland; came to US aged 2y; settled in Iowa were she grew up; m 27 Aug 1872 Nicholas Vandenberg; had 8 ch, 3 of whom are dead; mov to Abilene 1885; surv by husb; 5 ch; several grandch; 2 sis and 1 bro.
1900 census of Abilene, Dickinson co b Mar 1853 in Holland; m 27y to Nicholas Vandenberg; parents of 9 ch, 7 of whom were living; 6 were at home, John, Mattice, Walter, Gertrude, Nicholas and William.
First of all, assuming that you have access to census records, if you can do a search for the Marion County, Iowa 1860 census for “Paardekooper”, you will find this family. Anna, who is Aantje in Dutch, is shown there as being 7 years old, which would match up with the 1853 birth date on your gravestone. The census shows that she was the daughter of Martinus and Jozijntje Paardekooper, and we’ll see shortly that Jozijntje’s maiden name was De Booy.
Also, here is what I cut and pasted from the 10 July 1903 Pella Weekblad, which was the Dutch-language newspaper in Pella. This is the thank-you notice from the Paardekooper children following the death of Jozijntje, whose name was Americanized to Rosina. Apparently Martinus had died and she had remarried a Minor, who had also died.
