Before birth of Cornelia
There are some indications to believe that Guillaume François Hubert Sindorff, Willem Frans Hubert Sindorff (1869-x), François Hubert Sindorff (1871-x) and Jean Hubert Sindorff (1876-x) may have been his half brothers of Lourens, children of Elisabeth Hubertina Bloemen (1820-1905) from the first marriage of Frans Peter Hubert Sindorff (1843-1910) who secondly married Josephina Maria Hubertina Thissen (1849-x) possibly the biological mother of Lourens.
At the age of 1 Lourens leaves the Netherlands with his family to New York , USA, with final destination Chicago. "J. Sindorff" and family message New York, 19 December 1872 in the Algemeen Handelsblad issue 5 January 1873: that they 'kapitain E. Deddes thanks for the good journey from Rotterdam to New York', per steamschip Maas; 1st depart 20 Nov.1872, arrival 19 December 1872, passengers list Maas, archive 36.2.2,M237B,roll #370 1314 frame 343 FHL 0175726
It is initially this advertisement wherein the family leaves a message behind along with the boarding list that has lead to the hypothesis that Lourens may have travelled with his biological mother. J. Kievit which may have been an alias for Josephine Maria Hubertina Thissen since sister Jantje Kieviet, date of birth 1824, deceased 1837.
Josephina is 24 of age in 1872 matches the shipping list of 'Jantje" the spinster to become Mrs. J. Sindorff nearly 10 years later on 26 July 1881 in Roermond by marriage with Frans Peter Hubert Sindorff.
