I've written a short-story involving my great (5x) grandfather, Dirk Hoksbergen. He was a minor figure in the Secession of 1834 in the Netherlands. It's mostly a true account, but I've taken a few creative liberties, particularly with the dialogue. You can find it here.
 
Great story Wes, thank you for sharing.

It exposed some of my ignorance about the formation of the secession churches, especially Scholte's changes to the Church Order. Do you have information on what he altered?

W.W.J. Van Oene discusses this in some detail in his book Patrimony Profile. See here and here.
