HOLLANDER FAMILY TREE
I have always been fond of genealogy, mostly because I enjoy reading historical stories. I got interested in genealogy after seeing a family tree made by two aunts of mine of our common ancestors from my mothers-mother side (Bouhuys). Being the last male Hollander in my family line I thought it would be nice to see how far back I could get …

A “HOLLANDER” is someone from the province of North or SOUTH HOLLAND (1-7) in The Netherlands. The name “Holland” first appeared in sources for the region around Haarlem (in North Holland), and by 1064 was being used as the name of the entire county (The Netherlands). Holland is derived from the Old Dutch word “holtlant” meaning: “wood-land“. This spelling variation remained in use until around the 14th century, at which time the name stabilized as Holland (alternative spellings at the time were Hollant and Hollandt).
