The Christmas Flooding of 1717 in Vliedorp and Wierhuizen
This article discusses which people actually died in two parishes because of the famous Christmas night flooding of 1717, when large parts of the province of Groningen became covered with at least 2 meters of water, resulting in nearly 1.000 casualties (22% of the population) in the Marne in north Groningen. It argues that especially poor people living in relatively vulnerable small houses in two small villages drowned (Broek and Houwerzijl), while the more wealthy farmers in their well-established farmsteads nearly all survived this natural disaster. Proven is also in opposition to many references in popular publications that the Christmas Flooding of 1717 did not destroy the whole village of Vliedorp, as before 1717 this place also only consisted of one house and a church

Van de 18de-eeuwse adellijke bewoners van de borg Nieuw-Folkerda onder Bedum Van Goltstein en Van Voorst zijn tenminste zeven schilderijen bewaard gebleven. Hoewel geen bijzondere portretten, zijn het er wel relatief veel; en nu eens niet de rijkste edellieden, maar leden van een familie die door zijn katholicisme en beperkte welstand eerder tot de tweede garnituur Groninger adel gerekend kan worden. In dit geillustreerde artikel wordt de geschiedenis van deze familie in de achttiende geschetst
