Hello. I am writing you from America. I am working on a family history scrapbook and have come acrossed some papers that say my Great grandmother and her parents and sisters lived at "Vijfwegenstraat" "fiveway street 107 from June 1901 till November 1906 when they moved to "Vijfwegenstraat 131. This is where my Great grandmother, Madeleine Van Loocke, who I am named after, was born.

My great grandmother,
born Magdalena Vanloocke on April 9, 1906 to Camiel ALberik Vanloocke and Maria
Mayfroot. I understand she was born at Wijk, BI, Brugsche Kortrijk. Do you know
if this is a hospital, a home, a street address. I have no idea what this means.
She also attended a catolic school in Roeselare West Flanderen which was a few
blocks from her home. Do you know the name of this school or even have a picture
of it?

I hate to take you time but would really love to have some information.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
