HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

I am looking for the (business)relation between Blaby Rose Gardens and Verschuren rosenurseries in The Netherlands in the 1950-1960s. How come several Verschuren roses were Blaby named: Blaby Monarch, Blaby Courier, Blaby Jubilee?

Blaby Rose Gardens was managed by a Dutchman, Bernard Hanraads, which explains the business relations with de Ruiter and Verschuren. We added some notes under this listing. A Bernard Hanraads is still on linkedin.com, possibly a descendant. You might try to contact him.

I have a policereport on Mr. and Mrs. Biesheuvel (owners of Blaby Rose Gardens) getting killed in a carcrash in The Netherlands on 16 april 1960. Former employees speak of 'The Manager of Blaby Rose Gardens when I worked there was a man called Jim Chamney' and 'the manager was Mr Walter J Clark'. So....quite some names to check, although the first obviously is not to be consulted
