1. Re: [D-COL] Sijmon Floriszen [1]
Machtelt Sijmons was Claertje Arents' daughter and Claes Maijer was Machtelt's husband, according to the Amsterdam marriage record of Machtelt and Claes. My research notes on Evert Pels, Sijmon Floriszen, Claertje Arents, etc. can be found at http://www.boydhouse.com/michelle/roosa/evertpels.html and http://www.boydhouse.com/michelle/roosa/sijmonfloriszen.html This includes photocopies of several original marriage records for this family. Happy researching! Michelle >How do MACHELT SIJMONS and CLASE MAIJE

Hallo, Willem, Thank you very much. Your site is a wonderful resource for us all. And it is fun to go there to study. One special resource is your translations of Dutch words found in old records. That helps a lot. I very much enjoyed the place-name list, and hope to have time soon to send a few more over to you. I come from southern New Jersey and can remember several place-names for your project. One road in my hometown was named "Kresson Road." Named for the Croesen family (hope I spelled the old

Dear Carloyn and List members, I noticed your mail here on D-Col, re John van Pelt. It was very kind of you to post it. This post is especially intriguing to me because of the surname of John Van Pelt' wife: Houlten. It is of great interest to me to know about the parents and/or siblings of the Barbara Houlton you found in Staten island DRC. That is one surname I have been researching. This is a sound-alike surname which is similar to my maternal grandmother's last name, Holten. I inherited genealo

Dear Carolyn Dear List members and administrator(s) With all due respect to everyone, What happened to Carolyn is so unfortunate. I did not know of this policy either, if it does exist.

Thank you Lou and Carolyn and Pam. Lou, I am interested in the Catherine Lawrence marriage cited below. When you have time... no sweat. Again, and to the List: Does anyone know where to find the parents/location/records of Barbara/Barbary Houlton/Hoooten/Houghton? Are alternate spellings known? I do not have the means to purchase piles of CDs with records, or to travel very much. Now it seems that many records have been privatized, accessible only by subscription or by purchase of books or CDs. It

Emigrant Jan Bastiaensen Van Kortrijk's third son Laurens Jansen's children went by the surname of "Low". One of them named Isabella "Beitie" Low, who was baptized NYC June 18, 1693, was married to an Abraham Van Vleet. Would anyone out there know the parents for the said Abraham Van Vleet?

The Firth Haring Fabend critique of the Ric Burns documentary which is posted on the NPR webpage is brilliant as is Russell Shorto's Island at the Center of the World. This mailing list is more than a genealogy site--it is about the important role of the New Netherlands colonists in the making of a great and free country.

12. van Couwenhoven [0.976734]
Hello -- Glee and I share descent from Wolfert Gerritsz van Couwenhoven. The discussion initiated by Glee re: when did he arrive is most interesting. Frans Gouveneur kindly gave us Wolfert's genealogy in the Netherlands, saying that Couwenhoven was a farm in or near Amersfoort. This generates another question: what is the derivation and/or meaning of the word "Couwenhoven" as used in the locative for Wolfert? The "farm Couwenhoven" means what? My surname "Voorhees" is a locative (actually van Voorhees) with

16. Aeltie Cornelis (COOL) VAN COUWENHOVEN: Matrilineal Descendants? [0.976734]
Back in 2001, I posted the following: Q. Was Eleanor/Nelly-5 LANE (Gizebert-4, Mathias-3, Gysbrecht-2 "Gilbert" LAENEN, Matthys-1 Jansen LANEN VAN PELT) the wife of Roliph-5 UPDIKE (John-4, Lawrence-3, Johannes-2, Louris-1 Jansen)? Conventional research suggests "Yes" but "the proof" still eludes us. If this theory is proven correct, Eleanor (LANE) UPDIKE, becomes one chain in an unbroken matrilineal descent of 15 generations from Aeltie Cornelis (COOL) VAN COUWENHOVEN down to my great-grandmother, Mar

Are you sure that there ever were any headstones? Many times descendents never purchased a headstone, particularly if they were poor.

Dear Glee, The Lincoln C. Coucheu article was serialized in the "New York Genealogical and Biographical Society Record" from July 1939 through October 1978! The whole thing was cumulated and published in volume 2 of "Genealogies of Long Island Families" in 1987.

"Circumstantial evidence indicates Margarita was the daughter of Andries Bradt and Margarita Van Slyke. Her date of birth, about 1686, fits into a gap between Andries's known children. There is no other likely candidate for her father, and her mother was Margaret. Looking at witnesses for the baptism of her children, her first cousin Jannetje Schermerhorn was one witness for her first born, Jannetje; the other was her brother Arent. Her mother was a Van Slyke, and two Van slykes were witnesses at

Hello -- Please permit me to continue the dialog about the van Couwenhoven family. Glee, this will not make you any happier. I asked about the derivation/meaning of the locative "van Couwenhoven" because I have only a totally undocumented definition. I was told verbally many years ago that "van Couwenhoven" meant "from the barn or farm in the far or northwestern corner" of a certain area and that its usage was relatively common in the 16th and 17th century Netherlands. Again, I have no proof about this an
