    During Jane's illness and death, Chris had a hired girl, Aleida (Lydia) Brethouwer, a neighbor's daughter. She was born in Aalten, September 8, 1843, and came to America with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. William Brethouwer, her three sisters, Gertrude, later Mrs. Bart Heebink, Hannah, later Mrs. Henry Essling, Elizabeth, later Mrs. TePaske, and her brother, J. William Brethouwer. She stayed on after Jane's death and in 1865, Chris married her.

    Soon after their marriage, the family moved to Gibbsville, a Dutch settlement a short distance from Oostburg. Chris had loaned a Mr. Ruesink [who is this??--WGR] money for a store at Gibbsville, and as Mr. Ruesink was unable to make any payments on the loan, he was obliged to take over the store. He purchased a farm across the road from the store a short distance where the family lived in the comfortable farmhouse which is still occupied
