In this small village a famous school existed where students were taught how to fabricate a Korf (Basket). Surnames often derived from the profession of a given person. Hence, the first family member accounted for in writing was named Renerus (Rene) Korver (d.o.b. 1624). The letter s was often added to the end of the surname of its father. Therefore, the first documented child of Renerus was called Theodorus Korfs. One should realize that due to mistakes in pronunciation an writing, the name Kurvers has also been written as Korver, Korvers, Corver, Corvers etc. Anyways, Theodorus decides to cross the river Meuse and starts living in Sittard, a somewhat larger city, in effect only about 10 miles from his birtplace in Belgium.
