    Mrs. Adriana Zevenbergen (lit. seven mountains), the 100,000th Dutch migrant after the war, buys a cauliflower from Mrs. Wilhelmina Hofstede in the Australian port of Geelong. Australia, Geelong, March 1959.

    I notice that there is an Aussie named Kelly Zevenbergen on Facebook -- who could, I'm guessing, be this woman's granddaughter? Another photo of the emigrating Zevenbergens is in the Australian National Archives: naa12.naa.gov.au/scripts/PhotoSearchItemDetail.asp?M=0&am... My forebears emigrated from the Netherlands also, coming to Michigan USA in the 1870s. My parents were very excited to return to visit relatives in 1956; they discovered that they could still remember the Dutch language that they had learned as children, from their parents speaking it at home.

    Zevenbergen (wiki) is also the name of a town in the Dutch province of Noord-Brabant, which seems like a more logical explanation of her name.
