| Notes |
- Marritje Jans, born about 1607 in Flekkeroy, Norway was the daughter
of Tryntje Jonas who was the first mid-wife of New Amsterdam and the
sister of Anneke Jans. Anneke had married twice. First to Roelof Jansen
in Amsterdam Reformed Niew Kerk in April of 1623 and the second time
in New Amsterdam to Domine Everadus Bogardus in March of 1638.
The records show that Marritje was married three times. Around 1632
she married Tyman Jansen, more than likely at Amsterdam in The Netherlands.
He died before 1646, for in that year Marritje married for the second time
to Dirck Corneliszen Van Wensveen on 28 August1646 at the Reformed Dutch
Church at New Amsterdam. Dirck died by July 1648 and the following year
on 20 July 1649 Marritje married for the third and last time to Govert
Loockermans.
Marritje Jans and Tyman Jansen
They had one child, a daughter, Elsje (Elsie) who was born about 1633/34
in New Amsterdam. Elsie married twice, first, with intentions recorded
7 Jan 1652 at New Amsterdam, to Pieter Cornelis Vanderveen; and second,
on 11 April 1663 at New Amsterdam to Jacob Leiser.
Elsie had four children by Pieter. Three, Cornelis, Timotheus, and Margarita,
were mentioned in her mother's will. Her second marriage to Jacob Leiser
resulted in seven more children being added to her progeny: Susanna, Catharina,
Jacob, Mary, Johannes, Hester, and Francina.
Marritje Jans and Dirck Corneliszen Van Wensveen
From this marriage one child was born and baptized at the Reformed Dutch
Church in New Amsterdam. He was christened as Cornelis and was recorded
as Cornelis Dirckszen in marriage intentions to Grietje Hendricks on 17 Nov
1652. They had one son, Dirck Dirckszen, who was baptized at New Amsterdam
on 2/3/1674.

Govert had been previously married to Ariaentje Jans. He and Marritje had
one child, Jacob, who was baptized at New Amsterdam on 17/3/1652 and
witnessed by: Pieter Prins, Annetje Loockermans, and Jacob Van Couwenhoven.
Records show that Jacob was alive but unmarried on 7/5/1677--the date of his
mother's will. It was proved in New York on 22/7/1678 with a codicil dated
1/11/1677.
