There is a good deal of information around on the Caljer and Van Der Hoeven
family, the Caljer family have a good section in Vol 2 of Provosts 'Early
settlers of Bushwick' as do the Van Der Hoeven family. This work is
available on CD.

Wilson Ledley wrote a genealogy of the Van Der Hoeven (later generations
were mostly Vanderhoof/hoef/hoff) and this has been added to by a good
number of researchers since.
