Hendrix family oral history told us that we had Dutch origins, but who were they? When and how did the arrive in the New World? To get back to the immigrants who first came to the New World, the founders of our family would take the help of Hendricks(x) researcher Marilyn Coalla and DNA evidence, supplied by brother Jim Hendrix. The Hendrix DNA project verified that we are of the "Frontier Hendricks(s)" family, and indeed Albertus and Helchey were our very own "Opa and Oma," our founders. This is their story, as told to my granddaughters Sarah and Grace Martin in 2009, after a visit to the Netherlands. My souvenir, a silver spoon, is the starting point of this tale.
