During my research, for the writing of this book, I had the opportunity to get to know my roots more profoundly. The family (hi)stories my granmother used to tell me were my guide in the search vor my roots. Armed with truths and half truths told to me about my ancestors, during my childhood, I started my research. Some findings surprised me, but non brought shame upon me.

Geneology/family tree of the Dubero -Vries family will be presented in chapter 4.

With love, affection, respect and pride I dedicate this book to my maternal grandmother and grandfather,

Anna Clara (Macaya) Dubero Vries (R.I.P.) and Jan Hendrik Balbino (Pachi-Yendi) Dubero (R.I.P.)
