Bernardus Gozewijn was a eighth generation Braskamp. He was a carpenter in Apeldoorn. He married Johanna Louisa Landaal. The couple had 7 children, of whom 4 emigrated to the United States.
The first, Johannes Hendrikus, emigrated to the States with his wife and six children after 1882, because their youngest child was born in Amsterdam.
The second, Johanna Louisa Egberdina, married Peter Gores Ketel, a miller. They emigrated to the States in 1872.
The fifth, Willem Laurens, married in 1879, presumably in Sioux Centre where their eldest child was born in 1880. In The Netherlands Willem Laurens was a carpenter, travelling from Apeldoorn to various other places where he lived for a couple of years, probably for different jobs.
The seventh, Albertus Marinus, was a copper smith's man and his departure for the United States is registered as 10-3-1877, from Wageningen where he was living since 1874. He married 1879 in Orange City, Iowa.
It seems that Louisa Egberdina and Peter Gores Ketel were the first to emigrate to the States, in 1872. Willem Laurens and Albertus Marinus emigrated later on, perhaps together in 1877, both still unmarried. Johannes Hendrikus was the last to emigrate, after 1882. I found no records about reasons of emigration. It doesn't seem that there were religious reasons behind it. My guess is that there was an economic motive, the expectation that the United States would offer great opportunities. All three brothers lived in Alton, Iowa.
