Noordhoorn, where Gerard was born, was then in the German province of Hanover. It now lies in the German province or Bundeslander of Rheine-Westphalia which lies just across the border with Friesland in the Netherlands.

Jauna and their four children immigrated to the United States in intervals from 1874 and 1876 mostly settling in Michigan.
