The Leeuwarden Historical Center
Special thanks to Jan Faber and everyone at the
Leeuwarden Histoical Center in Leeuwarden.
Friesland, the Netherlands. Jan s help has been
invaluable in furnishing vital clues that allowed
us to track the Baron's movements and uncover
this latest information exonerating his reputation.
The Center is in the very city where the Baron, in
his previous identity as Philip
Hendrkk Xering Bögel, once served as the
Province s tax collector. We're very fortunate to
have this
association
and truly
appreciate
Jan. who sen: If .vJl JjC'" *2

across the street
from the
Historical Center.
Thanks Jan!

The Baron's Good Reputation Restored
For over half a century it was
believed that the Baron abandoned
his wife and four daughters in
what is now the Netherlands. After
years of research we have finally-
discovered this information is
absolutely wrong. Recent evidence
proves his family accompanied the
Baron to America where they all
became United States citizens.

costumes for the re-enactment scenes featured

We're excited to begin shooting this pivotal
moment in Texas history when the Baron met

history of American's Texas began. Learn more
