Name	Her patronymic is given as Meijes or Meyes. A cross-stitch sampler she made as a child spells her name Sioukie Meties.
Shared note	Edith Hildebrand said that Sjoukje emigrated with her husband in 1881. They came to Passiac via Ellis Island from Sneek in Friesland. Her husband had gone bankrupt running a store. They had to pawn jewelry to pay for passage. He became a landscape gardener in the US, but died shortly after arriving (in the blizzard of 1888). Sjoukje's son, Guy Myron Hettema, was 5 when his father died; his brother Neil was not yet born. Sjoukje cleaned houses to feed her six children. -- Five Generations of the Hettema Family
