This is a non-commercial site sponsored by Jack and Arnold Jagt, sons of emigrants to Canada in 1950.
Hello Jack & Arnold,
My cousin Marc showed me this site. I’m Ayo Vincent Jagt, son of Bouke Jagt, the dutch children book writer. Nice to find relatives in Canada. I reckon your (grand) parents went to Canada during the same time my grandfather left Drenthe for Amsterdam. If we are from the same family indeed, it would be nice to contribute something to the site. And of course I hope you are all doing well.
We welcome all Jagts! Be aware that there seem to be two maine branches of Jagts, Friesland (ours) and Zeeland (not us).
One way to make connections is thru geneology records. Here are some site that may be helpfull…
