The passport of Augustinus Franciscus FLINT. It was made in 1919 and used in Jan 1920. Seven views of the cover and pages follow along with an enlargement of the photograph. The passport is 7" tall.

1926: The 25th Wedding Anniversary Photograph of Augustinus Franciscus FLINT and Geessina ZWEEP. Detroit, Mich. I do not know who has the original. Ben and Ruth FLINT had a negative though and I borrowed it. It appeared to be a black and white negative and on a whim I scanned it 'also' in color. What a shock!
....
The following photos are of the home and area where the FLINT family lived in Amsterdam, Holland taken about 81 years after they moved to the USA. These were taken around 2001 or 2002 by family in Holland. The street they lived on is named 'Ruysdaelstratt'. 'Stratt' means street and I could find no meaning for 'Ruysdael'. The 'ZUID' on the sign means south.
Above, this is the corner street sign. It appears there is a 'girlie' place there now.
Above, this is where the FLINT family lived and it was ON THE 3rd FLOOR. The entrance is barely shown but it was to the left of where it says '8183'. Homes are narrow in Holland as property tax is figured on the frontage of a building.
Above is a view of the street. The black building on the far back right is where the FLINT boys went to school. The girls were to young. I do not know how far this is from the home. From looking at bing.com map views taken ca 2012, it appears to be in the other block.
Above, in a 2012 bing.com map view rotated, which lost color, this is the only row of homes that fit to the roof style.
Above, rotated back to normal, this is a view of the entire street. It is two blocks long ca 2012 bing.com photo date.
Above, a long range view showing the area of Amsterdam where they lived.
