Above is a link to the Maritime Museum in Sydney where they have a database for migrants, known as the Welcome Wall. Our family placed Anneke's name on the wall several years ago and it is outside in brass, on an actual wall!.Might be useful too others, as it has a very good database to search on.

Our story (in English and Dutch)...here!   Yes. I added my parents' names. (Jo & Co Mul-Postma) and my own, as well.

In 2000, it was good fun to be with the AVRO (Radio)  people and Dutch supporters, watching the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics - behind that wall, in a huge marquee, on what seemed to be, normally, the parking area, between the wall and the National Maritime Museum. 

They were calling it "Holland House".  (Now "Holland House", as a venue, is elsewhere.) 

I went many times myself to the Orange Tent during the Olympics, it was fantastic fun!
