I have just modified the name Chevalier, changed it to Chevallier, because that's the correct spelling. Source: My mother Johanna Carolina Vink-Chevallier was the daughter of Karel Chevallier. http://www.online-familieberichten.nl/pers/167935/Johanna-Carolina-Chevallier-1917-2004 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:8109:240:1450:ECE7:A834:46E6:2322 (talk) 12:23, 22 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
