Did you know that:
► The origin of the Jordaans can be
   traced back to 970AD.

► Originally Jourdan, derived from
   Jourdain, the French name for the
   river Jordan in the Palestine. After
   the crusades it became a popular
   first name in France and many
   surnames were derived from that.

   Jordaan names in the genealogical

► This is the ideal opportunity to
   establish a Jordaan family asso-
   ciation. Such an association will
   introduce contact between the
   Jordaans, will organize functions
   and publish a newsletter.
