Hello,

My name is John Eggers and I live in Sydney, Australia. My family and I emigrated from Holland in 1960 aboard the ship 'Groote Beer' when I was 12 years old.

After 45 years here, we consider ourselves 'True Aussies'

I have spent a lot of time gathering information about my ancestors and have traced them back to about 1700. I have had much help and in particularly owe a lot to cousins Jane Graham in America and Bertus Jongebloed in The Netherlands.
