From the
book: “In suggesting the title, Andre’s
Crossing, several references come to mind.
First, it pinpoints on a map that spot where the Grand Rapids, Holland
and Chicago Railway ‘crossed’ the Andre Homestead during the first quart of
this century. It might also refer to the
marriages which involved the ‘crossing’ of the Andre blood line with that of a
multitude of other families. But most
significant of all it would refer to that seven week ‘crossing’ of the stormy
Atlantic Ocean which brought Hiram Rosing Andre and family from The Netherlands
to these shores in 1848.”
In addition
to family stories, this book contains a detailed family history.
