So far I did not find one. Let me know if you know of any...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/13245436-111733310108026870?l=www.harbers.com' alt='' /></div>Gerardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16048978177726105468noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13245436.post-1117319506458762732005-05-28T15:25:00.000-07:002005-05-28T19:24:12.733-07:00If you are a reading this, and you are a Harbers, you are most likely Dutch. I am a Harbers, and live in the US, but am Dutch as well. A good source for finding where they live are the international whitepages published by <a href="http://www.infobel.be">Infobel Belgium</a>. Here is a distribution of Harbers phonebook listings over the world, at least for the countries I searched so far: <center> <table> <tr><td>NL <td> 511 <tr><td>Germany <td>253 <tr><td>US <td>100 <tr><td>Canada<td> 29 <tr><td>France<td> 11 <tr><td>Danmark<td> 5 <tr><td>UK<td> 2 <tr><td>Belgium<td> 2 <tr><td>UK <td>2 <tr><td>Luxembourg<td> 0 <tr><td>Spain<td> 0 <tr><td>Italy<td> 0 </table> </center> <p>In 1920 there where about 100 families with the name Harbers in the US. I found the census data at <a href="http://www.ancestry.com/search/SurnamePage.aspx?html=b&ln=Harbers">http://www.ancestry.com</a>. Apparently we did not reproduce very well: now there are also 100 entries in the National <a href="//www.whitepages.com">US White Pages phone directory</a>. With 2 Harbers per listing there should be about <strong>200 people with the name Harbers in the US</strong>. <p>There are 511 public entries for Harbers in the Dutch phone book. It is quite easy to find this information: <a href="http://www.telefoongids.nl/tginl.dll?clientid=tginl&action=white&amp;type=search&resultsperpage=25&amp;name2=harbers&country=on&amp;dname=harbers&dwhere=Nederland&amp;subscription=residential&pagestart=1&amp;source=filterperson">Click here to check for yourself ...</a>. If I assume that on average 2 people with the name Harbers share a registration, there are about <strong>1000 people with the name Harbers in the Netherlands</strong>. <strong>Germany</strong> shows 253 listings for Harbers in their <a href="http://www.dastelefonbuch.de"> phonebook </a>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/13245436-111731950645876273?l=www.harbers.com' alt='' /></div>Gerardhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16048978177726105468noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13245436.post-1117317627904264352005-05-28T14:56:00.000-07:002005-05-28T19:08:53.676-07:00I decided replace the forum I had with a blog, in the hope it gets more used. You can comment on the blog, or become a co-author.
