His siblings were Hendrika born 1869 who died young in 1871, Gysbertje born 1870, Hendrika W. born 1871, Pieternella born 1873 who also died young in 1876, Whlhelmina "Minnie" born 1874, Peter born 1877, and Antonia H. born 1880. All the children were baptized in the First Reformed Church of Pella. Over the years this farm family lived on several farms in Black Oak Township. They raised wheat, corn, oats, hay, and Irish potatoes. They also made butter, cheese and molasses. They had horses, cows, pigs and chickens. Herman's mother, Egje DeJong, came to this country on the S S England from the Netherlands during a cholera outbreak. Five members of the family died enroute. The ship anchored off Halifax Canada where some were buried who had not been buried at sea. They were there in the winter when it was snowy and very cold. All their belongings had to be destroyed, and people from Halifax sent out clothes and tents for them. After several weeks the cholera had ceased and they were able to go on to New York City where they were quarantined for two weeks before going on to Iowa. He had 4 years of high school and registered for the draft for both WWI and WWII. His registration papers show that he was tall, medium build, gray eyes, and brown hair. In 1914 he married Martha, daughter of Newton S. and Eliza (Helton) Cooper. They were divorced sometime before 1930. Herman worked at various jobs. In 1918 when he registered for the draft he was working as a salesman for the Town Lighting Plant in Grundy Center IA. In 1920 he was a salesman for Residence Water Systems in Lancaster NE. In 1930 he was a farm hand living with the Emerson family in McHenry IL. In 1942 when he registered for the draft for WWII he was working at Lindhurst Farms in Lake Villa IL. Then in July 1944 he was hired to work as a Stower on Chicago Freight Terminal for the CNR RR Company. I can not find where he died but wherever it was apparently his brother, Peter, buried him in Black Oak Cemetery in Mahaska Co IA.
