Subject: Leea ROOSA b.1747 Ulster Co., NY
Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2000 09:08:47 EST
Seeking information on this Leea ROOSA bpt. in the Kingston RDC on April 12,
1747 to Abraham Aldertsen Roosa and Elizabeth Rutsz. On March 11, 1774, Leea
married Jacobus Van Keuren in the Shawangunk RDC, Ulster Co., NY and had a
son Abraham baptised in the same church on June 27, 1774. Would anyone know
"which" Jacobus Van Keuren Leea married?
I have been told that the marriage records say that Jacobus was a "widower".
Was this the Jacobus Van Keuren bpt. October 26, 1746 in Kingston or his
father Jacobus bpt. May 17, 1719, also Kingston. The elder Jacobus was
married on May 16, 1741 to Lea Hooghteling, again in the Kingston RDC. I have
no death date for Lea Hooghteling. Is it possible that the elder Jacobus took
a second wife one year younger than his own son?
Thanks in advance,
Cynthia
