Leonardus Klerks
Leonardus Klerks was born on 17 October 1878 at six in the evening in Drunen, the son of the farmer Arnoldus Klerks and Gijsberdina van Son. On 5 October 1903 he married Francijna Ballier in Drunen. Their family, too, was large and heavily marked: of the twelve children born between 1904 and 1922, five died as babies or toddlers. The children who grew up carried the family forward, among them Johannes ('Jan', 1914), the father of archive compiler Leo. Around their 25th wedding anniversary the couple was photographed with a large part of the family — one of the finest images in this archive. Leonardus died on 20 March 1946 in 's-Hertogenbosch.
