I have done a little more research into the Wielengas. The name Reinder appears in several Weilinga families in this area. I have an obit of Reinder Wielenga 83, died Oct 1950 he was born Mar 23, 1867. Since your Reinder was born 1818 this Reinder could be a son or granson?? It states that this Reinder came to America at 2 years of age in about 1869. They came to Virgina. Now there is a Richwood W. Virginia and there is a Richwood NJ. These are locations frequented by Dutch emigrants. I tried to find his reference on Ancestry.com with no luck. I will try some more ideas.
