Apparently from Google Earth/Maps, the homesite of Derk Jacobs Kruizinga still exists today.  More than likely, the surrounding fields would have been the farmlands that Derk worked.  This is where Jacob Derks Kruizenga (our ancestor who migrated to America in 1857) would have been born and raised.
