Burgemeester of Antwerp. President, Tribunal of Commerce. Colonel in the Garde Civique (Militia). Calvalier. At times he entertained the King and Queen of Belgium. (Reference: family document from Aunt Nancy KNOWLTON)

"There were a lot of difficulties, e.g. the late delivery of the columns for the entrance hall, so burgemeester HERTOGS was said to have handled it roughly" (from "De Antwerpenaar en zijn Statiekwartier" by Frans Lauwers, Edition Mens en Kultuur, 1992, p. 44). In this same period the present "Central Station" of Antwerp was built (1896-1902), so I can confirm that a Hertogs (I do not know the first name) was Burgemeester of Anwerp when the present building of that Station was made (ibidem p. 15).

From: Eeckels, Andre: The family tree of quite a lot Mayors of the city of Antwerp have been published, by the " Vlaamse Vereniging voor Familiekunde" short V.V.F. You can find, Petrus Josephus Alphonsus  HERTOG's in the edition of 1977, book nr 4-5 page 311.  We were lately in Salt Lake City, so we know the Church there, has these editions.  So the larger part of the credit of my work, goes to the VVF.

I have a nice picture of him but rather dark, a photo copy out of the book. Showing him with a huge moustache and whiskers. On a uniform jacket he is wearing 4 medals and another 2 are hanging around his neck. By the way he was a cavalier (knight) of the order of King Leopold (and not Napoleon I presume). In the population records I can find this home address. The Plantin Museum is still there.
