| Eugene Dart |
Eugene and Josephine Dart nee Hermans are my husband's 2nd great grandparents. Eugene was born on September 18, 1845 in Grand-Leez, Namur, Belgium to Jean Baptiste Sr and Marie Josephe Dart nee Podor. He was the fourth of six known children: Jean Baptiste Jr, Marie Julienne, Jules Joseph, Eugene
(of course), Antoinette, and Desira.
He married Josephine Hermans in 1871 in Wisconsin and they had twelve known children:
Louisa
Charles
Jean Baptiste
Odile
(also spelled Odele)
Adolphe
Jule
Desirea
Mary
(my husband's great grandmother)
August Joseph
William
Eli
Wilbert

| Josephine Dart nee Hermans |
Josephine was born in Belgium (location unknown) on March 23, 1851 to Charles and Josephe Hermans nee Landeck. While I haven't been able to confirm any siblings enough to warrant putting them in my tree
(I've found some, but my research hasn't convinced me yet!), I was able to find another tid-bit while searching for this blog post...Her parents' marriage in Belgium! Very nice...different blog post though!
Eugene died in 1924 and Josephine died on October 25, 1930 in Wisconsin. They are buried in Saint Martin's Cememtery, Kewaunee County, Wisconsin.
[Thank you Cheryl (no not me) for sharing the Dart pictures with me!]
