Heijst Family Farm - Hiding Place Samuel van der Hoeden

Samuel van der Hoeden went into hiding in Deurne and, with the help of chaplain Johannes Donkers (alias Jan Rak) from the Willibrordus parish, ended up with the Heijst family in Zeilberg.
Samuel stayed there for the rest of the occupation as a farmhand, but could not forget his former work as an (unlicensed) dentist and helped many Zeilbergers get rid of their toothache.
