Dear visitor,

Welcome to the Schip family website.

If you are a "van schip" or "van't schip" and interested in seeing our family tree you can click here for a tree without living people or email me for the link and password to the tree with living people.

Over time this it is my intention that this website will become a resource for both the family name Schip and the ship "De Liefde" that sailed from Holland to Japan in 1588 only to arrive a long 2 years later with most of the crew dead or dying. The captain became a vital part to trade with Japan.

Gerard van Schip
