About Albrigt, Albregt, Aalbregt... & Van Kleef
Please sign in to see more.
This site aims to put flesh on the bones of the Albrigt family who arrived in  Birmingham at the start of the twentieth century from Holland via Essex and  Kent.

It was generally believed that the Albrigt's or Albregt's hailed from Germany  but data from UK censuses from 1881 through to 1901 appear to disprove this  notion.

The Aalbregt's of the late 1800s continued to Anglicise the name  until 'Albrigt' appeared on general registration data at some point around the  First World War.

... Strange however, the skeletons one finds in one's closet!  It turns out  that our Albrigt's descended not from Hugo Aalbregt (who turns out to be great  grandfather Adolphe's adoptive father) but from Johannes Van Kleef and Johanna  Van Rooijen.  The Van Rooijen's were a wealthy family of Merchants from  Rotterdam who possibly helped pay for the passage of Johanna and her 4 youngest  children to London after her divorce from Van Kleef (and a possible  indiscretion with Hugo perhaps?)
