information on either although Lena would have lived between 1880's and
1930's and Dave between 1850's to early 1900's. I believe they are related
to the some of the Hoogerhyde's of Michigan, possibly the Grand Rapids area.
Lena Hoogerhyde married Edwin Smits, my grandfather and they lived in
Portland, Oregon. They had three children; Virginia Smits-Deblin, John SMITS
and Harold David SMITS, my father who was born in Portland, OR on June 23,
