Okay, I am trying to understand fully the difference between the "Costello Plan" and the "Dutch Land Grants" version, who Stokes was, etc. I have been trying to track the transfer of property from one individual to another and am using these sources as a guide. The main problem I am having is that one will identify an individual with one surname and the other will identify another. This is not particularly common, but clearly a problem where the individuals I am researching are concerned.
Any guidance f
Lorine,
I thought I recognized your name from my Dutch Colonies work in the late
1990's. I had saved quite a few of your postings to various people on
various subjects--all very helpful--thank you!! I was active with Dutch
Colonies research then, and I have just now joined the list again.
Regarding John Hanmer, and his wife Sophia. You are absolutely correct
about the 1810 census. John Has a female in the 26-45 age slot--most
probably, Sophia. John Hanmer remarried in 1818 to Harriet Ellsworth
Hi Betty,
Who is the Margarita who was baptized on 24 Jan 1722 in the Albany DRC? Her
parents are listed as Daniel and Deborah Kithel. The sponsors were Jacob V.
D. Heyden and Susanna Bratt. I do not have a husband for her.
Another Margarieta Ketelhuyn who was baptized on 30 Jul 1735 in the
Schenectady Reformed Church married Dirk Joachim Van Der Heyden on 28 Feb
1754 in the Albany DRC. She was the daughter of Joachim Ketelhuyn and Eva
Vroman.

Could a man described as a "gloutlakenwercker" and
a "treckwercker"
have had something to do with sailmaking and ships?
The first word has been defined to me as "clothworker" and the second as "canal worker".
This man was closely associated with men who were master mariners and sail makers.
Would a sailmaker fall into the category of "clothworker"
or would a sailmaker have been called something else?
Regards and my thanks,

Howard,
Thank you so very much for this very lucid treatment of Verleth. You have
given me several good leads to follow and I appreciate your help very much.

the Dutch Chuch in Readington, NJ. He married Ann KERSHOW on 19 May 1818.
She was born on 19 Dec 1797 and died 27 Oct 1883. Garret died 1 Mar 1867,

In correspondence with researchers of this line I have learned that it is thought that the above mentioned Peter Verlet was the brother of Casper Verleth.
Peter is said to have been baptised 18 August 1598

The Cornelius Bouwman who baptized his child Aeltje in 1745 was clearly
not the Cornelius Bowman who married Anntje Staats. I've seen it reported that

I am trying to help a researcher in the Netherlands. He believes that an
ancestor of his was naturalized at Kingston in 1715, and he hopes that the
document might show the country of the immigrant's birth. Does anyone know
if the Kingston Naturalizations are still extant? Have they been
published? In what depository might they be kept?
Thanks for your help, Dorothy
My previous posting, which asked about the parents of Susannah Jillis, wife of Nicholas Verleth was rife with error, and error that is widespread in on-line sources that deal with the husband and family of Beicken (Barbara) Schut.
Bottom line is that Beicken (Barbara) Schut was married to Gilles Jochems Tenwaert.
Gillis or Jillis Jans or Jochems Verbrugge was another man entirely. It was he who was the brother of Pieter Verbrugge.

Well, that depends on just _when_ you're talking about. Fort Orange
came first, founded 1623 (though there was an earlier Fort Nassau,
founded 1614, abandoned 1617 on a nearby island), and Beaverwyck
(Beverwijk) grew up around it, founded 1652

Dear Cynthia,
I think I can not give you answers at this time. As you may know I studied
the De Riemer family, but also Grevenraet. In selecting families for my NNC
articles I had to make choices and preparing these articles costs a lot of
time. I still have a demanding job and has to travel quite a lot.
So the Grevenraet family is near the bottom of my list and I have to sort a
lot of things here.

Wow. That is great. I always like it when the van ____ in a

As to Guillaume, he seems to have been involved in some
sort of business before his death before Aug 1659. So, I would
guess he was older than 21 but maybe less than 26 in 1658.
So, say born before 1637, but maybe after 1632.
As to Judith, since she was giving Wolfert Webber problems in
1655, but not married until 1666, the one you found seems to me
to be a little too o
The Roblee family web is active in tracing their roots and have long wondered
if the are descended from Joris Jansen. The jury is still out although I
think it is certainly possible if not probable. I would be interested in any

According to my research he came to New netherlands in 1624 and Probably
first settled in New Amsterdam with his second wife.( His first wife died in
Holland)Did he come over in the first ship Unity or the second the New
Netherland?And did he first settle in New Amsterdam?

Hi,
It was going on in Kingston. :) Hank Jones frequently cites
"Kingston Nats" for naturalizations in 1715. The full reference he

The name change from Fort Orange to Albany and New Netherlands to New
York came on the occupation of New Netherlands in 1664 by the Duke of
York's troops. I've heard that New York City's name was changed (to New
Orange) during the brief re-occupation of New York by the
