Dochter Petronella getuigt over haar vader met de volgende verklaring: "My father was brought up and educated by his uncle named Brouwer. He had a private school were lessons were given in four languages Dutch, English, French and German. This resulted that my father in later life mastered eight languages including Spanish, Italian, Norwegian and Papiamento, which is spoken in the West Indies. One day when my father was home on holiday, his father came home drunk. He ordered his shoe to be shined by my father and because he was not satisfied with the result he belted my father to such an extent that his ribs were broken. No doctor was called in. My grandfather who was a boatswain on a steamer left a note behind when he went to sea again. The note ordered my father to sign onto the same ship under him to make a man out of him. However, somehow my father falsified this note having the same handwriting, and signed on in the Dutch Royal Navy. There he went into training for his commission as navigator.He passed his exams but failed the medical because of his broken ribs after the heavy treatment when he had that nasty belting. After a spell of work in a grocer shop he went to sea as a steward on a ship of the Royal West Indian Steamship Co. from Amsterdam. Because of his education he soon became a chief of the catering department on board. In the meantime my grandfather got a shore job as boatswain in the nautical college in Amsterdam, a position he later lost because of his drinking in the pub with the oldest students. He then became a Docker and broke his legs by falling in a hold and ended his life on crutches. On the first trip after his marriage to my mother, my father sailed under a captain who was ill treated by my grandfather at the nautical college. This captain took revenge on my father to such an extent that he was landed with a nervous breakdown and went into hospital in Amsterdam for some time. My father was not fit anymore to go to sea again and they started a fish shop in The Hague. The shop ended in bankruption because the shop was blocked in with heaps of sand for lack of new drainage in the road."(bron: website Diane-J-Barnes op genealogy.com). |
