			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi Knoops!</p>
<p>I just found this site, I think it&#8217;s great!  I won&#8217;t be able to provide a full lineage, but I&#8217;ll sketch out some details.</p>
<p>My grandfather moved to Canada from Holland shortly after the Second World War.  Family legend has it that he decided to emigrate after a bomb was dropped in or near the backyard.  My father was two when they came across.  They landed in eastern Canada.  When the family arrived, and there were a lot of them, my father was put on the wrong train.  My grandfather had to go back and get him from somewhere way up north.</p>
<p>The family moved to Edmonton, where a large majority of them still live.  My uncle once did a family tree search and found that our name goes back to Holland from about 1600,  Our original name was Knop I believe.  I don&#8217;t have much more information than that.  I hope to learn a few things on this site.</p>

In dieser Region leben eine Vielzahl von Knop/Knoop .<br />
In den 30er Jahren des letzten Jahrhundert wurde hier in Niedersachsen ein Knop -Verein gegründet der sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hatte die Geschichte und Herkunft der Knop/Knoop zu erforschen.<br />
Im Stadtarchiv der Stadt Celle gibt es ein Buch über die Knop`s, in dem beschrieben ist wo die Knop herkommen. In der *Zeitschrift für Niederdeutsche Familienkunde* http://www.genealogienetz.de/publikationen/znf/index.html   kann man viel über unseren Namen erfahren.Unsere Familie gibt es schon seit dem 16 Jahrhundert in Winsen. Wir hatten im Ort einen Halbhof, die Nachkommen haben in der Landwirtschaft gearbeitet. Mein Urgroßvater Wilhelm Knop geb. 1868 hat auf den Ölfeldern in Wietze gearbeitet.Mein Urgroßvater hatte nur einen Sohn der ebenfalls Wilhelm Knop hieß und 1898 geboren wurde.<br />
Wilhelm Knop, mein Großvater hatte zwei Töchter (Zwillinge geb 1924) wovon eine, Herta Knop einen Sohn hat, mich ,da ich unehelich geboren wurde ,trage auch ich den Namen Knop.</p>
<p>Bis Bald<br />

<div><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">My name is Jasper Knoop from Kerkdriel and I was born in Lieshout (1964) and have two brothers, Koen (1962) and Sjef (1958). My father is Andre Knoop (1924), son of Sjef Knoop (1891). Sjef and his brother Machiel were the only remaining children of Dries Knoop and Maria Mennen. As far as I now, only Sjef took care of the offspring. Dries had a brother Gerrit and a sister Dien. Their father was Giel Knoop, their mother is unknown to me. These generations have lived in Oosterhout and Made en Drimmelen, in the mid-west of the Netherlands, and is mainly a clan of master builders. My father thinks the very early Knoops go back to Friesland, North of the Netherlands.</span></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Lone Ranger was ambushed and captured by an enemy Indian war party.   The Indian Chief proclaims, &#8216;So, you are the great Lone Ranger. In honor of the Harvest Festival, you will be executed in three days. But, before I kill you, I will grant you three requests. </p>
<p>What is your first request?&#8217; </p>
<p>The Lone Ranger responds, &#8216;I&#8217;d like to speak to my horse.&#8217; </p>
<p>The Chief nods and Silver is brought before the Lone Ranger, who whispers in Silver&#8217;s ear and the horse gallops away. </p>
<p>Later that evening, Silver returns with a beautiful blonde woman on his back.  As the Indian Chief watches, the blonde enters the Lone Ranger&#8217;s tent and spends the night. </p>
<p>The next morning the Indian Chief admits he&#8217;s impressed.  &#8217;You have a very fine and loyal horse but I will still kill you in two days. What is your second request?&#8217;</p>
<p>The Lone Ranger again asks to speak to his horse. Silver is brought to him, and he again whispers in the horse&#8217;s ear.  As before, Silver takes off across the plains and disappears over the horizon. </p>
<p>Later that evening, to the Chief&#8217;s surprise, Silver again returns, this time with a brunette, even more attractive than the blonde. She enters the Lone Ranger&#8217;s tent and spends the night. </p>
<p>The following morning the Indian Chief is again impressed.  &#8217;You are indeed a man of many talents but I still kill you tomorrow.  &#8217;What is your last request?&#8217; </p>
<p>The Lone Ranger responds, &#8216;I&#8217;d like to speak to my horse&#8230;.alone.&#8217;   The Chief is curious but he agrees and Silver is brought to the Lone Ranger&#8217;s tent. </p>
<p>Once they&#8217;re alone, the Lone Ranger grabs Silver by both ears, looks him square in the eye and says, &#8217;Listen very carefully you dumb horse. For the last time &#8230; BRING POSSEEEE&#8217;</p>
