New surnames connected to the family ???
There was three brothers in the Netherlands one adopted the name Aardappel because he was a potatoe farmer, another had a new house so he adopted "Neiwenhius"? and the 3rd lived down a "long lane" of trees so that was his surname.
Any clues what the name could have been? Or could the spelling for new house could have been Neijenhuis?
