A one-stop database to locate hundreds of Loomans ancestors and descendants from the past 500 years.
Find Your Roots.
The history of the Loomans family stretches back hundreds of years to a small town in the Netherlands called Winterswijk. For the first time the records of the Loomans family ancestry are recorded online and remain available for anyone to explore for free.
THE EARLY GENERATIONS
The Early Generations database covers more than ten generations starting in the early seventeenth century with Hendrick Lomans, born around 1620. Jan Albert Loomans, born in 1829, was the last ancestor to be born in the Netherlands.
This postcard of Winterswijk, Netherlands was sent by our family in October 1909. The image is an example of our family’s century-long heritage farming and living in the Dutch countryside.
US-BORN GENERATIONS
Thousands of descendants now extend from the ancestral tree following Jan Albert’s immigration to the United States in 1844. Jan Albert and Jacoba Lammers had 11 children over a 20-year period starting in 1853. The two were married in Alto, Wisconsin in 1851 and would raise the first US-born generation.
The descendants of Henry and Hannah Loomans alone—the first generation born in the United States—number in the hundreds. The chart shows the rapid growth of the family, multiplying significantly around mid-century.
