By a Google search 'bombach whitty' I found this interesting message.
I am very interested in the Dutch architect Cornelius BOMBACH.
From a letter during his stay in South Africa I knew that he married for the second time
May 17th 1912 at Hudson NY to the eldest daughter of a family Whitty (Irish
origin)-Schoonveld (Dutch origin). From census data I found this same family. Not his
forenames but only his last name.
As well as Edward Carroll.
I wander what data you have exactly about them. Amongst others what about Bombach. And
where the name Schoonveld was mentioned.
I am trying to find certificate numbers, and after that the certificates, of
a) their marriage
b) his death September 9th 1917 at Port Chester NY
c) her birth October 1886 in the state New York
I wander whether he was burried e.g. at Hudson NY.
And whether they had children. In South Africa later a man Bombach is mentioned, who could
be architect.
Thank you.
