In the time your grand grand grand...... father moved to Zaamslag was Belgium still a part of the Netherlands. So it was not such a big move. Then in and around Zaamslag lived many Protestant people. In and around Assenede they were Catholic. In that days that was important, If you had another faith, then you had a problem. So I think he had an other faith and thats why he moved.
