In June of 1956 relatives from the Netherlands paid a visit to the rather large and extended Van Halsema clan in Western Michigan.
A handful of images that came out of that short stay have come back to Michigan at long last: at the VandenBerg home on Oak Street in Fremont and a visit to the Ten Haves at Clear Lake, near Rockford, still a favorite family gathering place 60 years later!
