SMIT Jacoba

1888 - 1973  (85 years)

• Name	SMIT Jacoba
  	Jacoba told her granddaughter Rosemary Van Dyke that her father was not Cornelis Smit but that she had only seen her actual father one time. She was taken into the shop where he worked, and he gave her a bracelet. Cornelis Smit was married to her mother but was not her father. Jacoba had a very hard life. She was made to pull a milk wagon, during the winter, at a very early age and as a result had the small fingers on both of her hands frozen. She was engaged to two men before she married Gerrit Jan van Dyjk, both of them met tragic deaths before the wedding. One of them was a crew member of a shi[p that was lost at sea with no trace. Jacoba was a psycic and was able to tell peoples futures. She told that one of her uncles was also a psycic, and in the 1800's told of a time when people would fly in strange craft and would travel in strange horseless carriages.
