  • 50 years De Dobbel-Beker !
    December 2020, we have come to the end of our travel with De Dobbel-Beker!
     
    Our latest DDB edition 2020/4 includes a contribution about the Battle of Sluis and the deployment of the galleys used at the time, a type of sailing/rowing vessel. And that's how we feel, as the crew of a ship that sailed around, that rowed with the oars that were available, that fought, and that finally made its battle home.
     
    We hope to have given sufficient attention to just about all the regions in which namesakes eventually lived and still live.
    As a farewell we have put together an extra thick number in magazine edition 4/2020 for you!
     
    We also received some nice contributions for this very last edition and some readers contacted us to change their address, so as not to miss this special edition. We were also happy to receive some heartwarming words of farewell.
    It also reminds us of everyone who, over the past 50 years, as a contributor or as a reader, has participated in this fascinating adventure of De Dobbel-Beker!
    It is a pity that due to the Covid-19/Corona pandemic our last Lustrumfeest could not take place.
     
    Let us just say thanks to everyone, and be sure to save your editions of our magazine so that it will be available to later sleuths as well. It is clear that there is still a lot of information from the past waiting in the archives.
     
    Finally as of 2022, access to certain contemporary data via the Members' area is no longer active. Our website is now available for everyone.
    We have also made a nice overview film that shows the De Dobbel-Beker story in the past. You can also find this on our website.
  • DNA
  •    De Dobbel-Beker does research, for over 50 years, into family trees Dobbelaer-Dobbeleer and associated names.
       We identified already thousands of people into more than 75 Dobbelaere-Dobbeleer family trees.
       DNA testing should help our search for our common ancestor.

    The archives of De Dobbel-Beker currently have more than 67,000 names, most of them are related to one of our 75 family trees.
    Many of these family trees we researched, started in the 17th century, sometimes even earlier.
    This is the result of many years of searching in all kinds of archives by plenty of enthusiastic researchers.
    We must admit that it is extremely difficult to find genealogical information from before 1650. We are often looking for a tiny piece of written info.
    We suspect that some of our more than 75 Dobbelaer-Dobbeleer family trees are related to each other, and there is even evidence about the origin of the family name and a possible ancestor in the 13th-14th century.
    In October 2010 De Dobbel-Beker decided to join in on the DNA project of the Flemish society (VVF) (Belgium).
    By providing a simple saliva test we can examine the individual DNA profile and phylogenetic relationships between people.
    Participation is expensive, but by providing the necessary sponsorship we have a few dozens of namesakes that participated.
