Notes :
(1) Dentelle Belge 1991/2 p. 6-7 : Passagers Belges du Silvanus Jenkins par Jean Ducat (d'après des renseignements fournis par Micheline Gaudette) : Jean P. Weyker conduisit ce groupe de 64 personnes sans hésiter de New York à Milwaukee en l'espace de deux semaines... ces personnes, à l'exception de2, figurent dans le recensement de Belgium, daté de 1860. Arrivé à Holly Cross (Belgium) en 1845 avec sa famille, ses oncles et ses tantes, il s'installa ensuite à Port Washington en 1865 et y assuma des charges officielles comme shériff-adjoint, constable et directeur de prison. Il gagna ensuite la région de Peshtigo où il fut employé dans des entreprises ferroviaires et forestières. Après le "Peshtigo fire" de 1871, ilrevint à Port Washington et fut nommé shériff principal en 1880.  les frères Jean I et Jean II se dirigèrent ensuite vers Weyauwega, comté de Waupaca, WI (
