Nephew of Capt. Johannes Clute. Heir to property of his uncle. Called "de boslooper" In "Genealogies of the First Settlers of Albany, 1630-1800" by Pearson, pg 31-32, it is recorded that a Capt Johannes (Jans) Clute (Cloet) came from Neurenbergh (where??) to Beverwyck about 1656 and became a trader & landowner at Loonenburg, Niskayuna and Albany. On his death his estate went to a nephew Johannes the 2nd Clute, the boslooper (d. 1725) who was married to Bata Van Slichenhorst (dau of Gerrit). 2. I have also rec'd a hint (source unknown to me) that Johannes the 2nd's father was Jacob and his mother was Anna ?
See http://www.schenectadyhistory.org/resources/yates/gen-clute.html for more information on this family.
