Stamvader Era

The Stamvader Era was the historical period from 1760 to 1879, following the Early Foundation Era and preceding the Pre-Vader Era. It covers the period in which the ancestral generations and family lines that later produced De Vaders became established. The start of the era is fixed at 1760 and does not depend on the earliest ancestor currently documented.

The period includes the formal establishment of the Nostrini household in Calabria, the Nikolopoulos family's migration to the Dutch Republic and the development of the Paap surname. It also includes the nineteenth-century movement of Nostrini descendants into the branches that later used the Norte and van Noord surnames.
