Capitaine J. Vlieland

In Lloyds register there are many Vlielands to be found.
Going to and from London,Rotterdam,Le Havre or Danzig.
All these ships and cargo had to be insured and that is why these list are very specific about the state of the ship,type and so on.
This entry is from 1801, so long before Jerome went to England.

Also there is a clip of a book on the internet about a captain J.Vlieland which we will share with you.


This could be the Jan Vlielander of de Faam.
He is also known as Hollander it says.

The professor Jerome Nicholas Vlieland

Thanks to a member of Curious Fox we now have wonderfull copies.
Enjoy !
The professor Jerome Nicholas Vlieland and wife came from Boulogne to Dover in 1847 although he lived in England his origine is Dutch.
Maybe he went for a family visit in Holland because he was a Dutchman or maybe he had been to Paris.We can read what there was to see at that time .


On this list is the passportnumber of Jerome Nicholas the younger.

We still looking for the ship "magician "on which they sailed.
“The Times” in June 1847 noted that with the opening of the Boulogne and Amiens Railway to Abbeville, it was now possible to reach Paris from London in 14 hours, the Folkestone – Boulogne crossing taking 1 hour 45 minutes.
The railway finally reached Boulogne in 1848 although in those days the steamers operated from the Quai des Paquebots, on the other side of the harbour from the berths used today, and some distance from the station. Even so, the London to Paris through time was reduced to 12 hours 30 minutes and was further cut by another ninety minutes in time for the Great Exhibition of 1851.

Frances Maude Vlieland

Frances Maude Vlieland is the daughter of Charles James Vlieland and
Alice Edith Millen.
She is born September 1884 St.Thomas.

She married Jun 1906 St.Thomas with Reginald Peel.

Her best man was Herbert William Shove 

She died 4 February 1914 from malignant malaria in Sewri Bombay India at the age of 28.

Their children 

1.Francis Reginald V. Peel Registered Apr May Jun 1907 - Exeter 5b 412

29/11/1907 Exeter and Plymouth Gazette - 27 Nov at Ajmor, India Francis Reginald Vlieland, dearly loved child of Reginald and Frances Maude Peel , aged 9 months

2.Clifford Nicholas Vlieland Peel born 1909

3.Barbara Peel born 25 November 1911.

On her deathcertificate she is mentioned as 'wife of R. Peel Ast. Auditor BB+CI Railway'

Their son Clifford Nicholas Peel is then living with his granddad C.J.Vlieland.
He was a sickly child and did not go back to Sirwi with his mother after his birth in Exeter in late 1908, but stayed in Southernhay with his grandparents; he is almost certainly the small child at the extreme right of the picture of the opening of the Rougement Gardens.

He was an actor who in later life became a restauranteur. His stage name was Nicholas Vlieland. He even had his name officially changed.

29/11/1907 Exeter and Plymouth Gazette - 27 Nov at Ajmor, India Francis Reginald Vlieland, dearly loved child of Reginald and Frances Maude Peel , aged 9 months

Barbara Vlieland Peel, Frances Maude's second surviving child, was born in Sirwi in November 1911.
She was shipped home to England in 1914 after her mother's death and was brought up by her grandparents along with Clifford; she was deeply attached to her father's memory and reverted to 'Barbara Peel' 1932 or 1933, when she was 21.
She wanted to follow Charles James as a doctor and trained at (I think) the Westminster Hospital, but failed one exam and so ended up doing other jobs in medicine.
She married Archibald Graham Petter, another actor, in February 1943, and had a son, Graham, who was stillborn, in 1945, and a daughter in December 1946.
They were 25 years apart in age –Archibald Graham Petter born September 1885 in Middlesex, was only a few years younger than Reginald Peel and only a few months younger than Frances Maude, so that when he died in November 1964 it was as if Barbara Vlieland Peel had lost her parents all over again, and she suffered a breakdown and died in August 1976
We have this information from Charles James his great-granddaughter Barbara.

The Flying Doctor Service cannot be founded by our Clifford Vlieland Peel as he is 9 at that time.
The October 1918 issue of 'The Inlander' published a letter from Lieutenant J Clifford Peel of the Australian Flying Corps, proposing an air service by the Australian Inland Mission to care for the sick and injured in the outback.
Peel was killed in action and Reverend John Flynn developed the young airman's ideas, founding what became known as the Flying Doctor Service and devoting his life to what he called "a mantle of safety" over the outback.
Reginald Peels is a name that rings a bell.

As commodore of the Queen Mary and the Olympic he cruised with these lovely cruiseships.
But he is NOT the one our Frances Maude has married.
Our Reginald is born 13 Feb,1873 and baptised 02 March 1873 Moradabad, Bengal, India
His father is Nathaniel Peel and his mothersname is Constance Amelia Bird.
They were married 13 Sept 1866 Poona India
Reginald married for the second time to Violet Mona Flossy Mary Grant(who is then 21 years of age) on 09 September 1916 Naini Tal, Bengal, India.
The father of Reginald is stated as Nathaniel Peel and of the Violet as George Nelson Grant.
Nathaniels Father is Samuel Peel and Constances Father is Thomas Bird.

Reginald Peel sailed on H.M.S.Hood

De ooievaar

The story in the Vlieland family is that the stork was on a tile above the entrance of a tavern or the fireplace of the family home.
Charles James is supposed to have visited the house on the island of Vlieland.
Jerome Nicolas owned a silver platter with a stork engraved in it.So far there are not many taverns with such a sign described or to be found.

Trancript from this letter .
Otterden Barnfieldroad Exeter June 11 1905
Dear Sir
also whether there was a family crest
Certain of my relatives think it was a stork with a snake in its bill.
Yours faithfully
C.J.Vlieland

The stork is in the crest of the Dutch city The Hague

So far I found one tavern in Amsterdam and one in Sneek with a tile of a stork above the entrance.

Recently I found a stork above the entrance of a tavern near Haarlem.With a very naughty rhyme underneath.

Een ‘quade’ herberg "Rustenburg" in de Haarlemmerhout voerde volgens Jeroen Jeroensz. in de 17e eeuw het volgende opschrift:
’t is gewis twee vrouwen billen
Kunnen meer lokken
Als alle kloosters klocken
Laat ze vrij luijen
Datze haar moêr bruijen’.

The famous painter Jeroen Bosch painted these storks.

Is a painting by Jeroen Bosch.
The stork was also a trademark for a shoemaker.
So maybe we are from a shoemaking family .
Jan Jansen, the father of Jerome Nicholas Vlieland ,is also the name of a very well known shoedesigner in Holland a this moment.

After finding out all there is to know about storks .Suddenley you find something so obvious you missed it.
A stork above a door or a flag outside in the 18th century meant there was a midwife living there.

Some criminals in The Hague were branded with the stork mark.

The stork is symbol of The Hague 

William Vrieland

We do not know who he is,but it is is a great story.

[2] This meant a serving convict, assigned by the governor to work for a private master.
