HI,

Researching my geneology, I came across your page.

I also have Jan Mattysen JANSEN who married Magadalena Blanchan in my tree.

His parents are:

                Mattys Jansen Van Keuren (Van Ceullen)
                b. ?
                d. prior 2/15/1663
                m. ?
                Margarita Hendricks.
                b.?
                d,?

I know the info is sketchy at best but I thought at least a name would be a start.
 

Parents for Magadalena Blanchan:

                Matthew Blanchan
                bapt. 1606
                d. 1687
                m. 1635
                Magdeleine Joire
                bapt. 10-27-1611

Parents of Matthew Blanchan:

                Leonin Blanchan
                b. ?
                d.  ?
                m. ?
                Isabeau LeRoy
                b. ?
                d. ?
 

Father of Magdeleine Joire:

             Pierre Joire
            b. ?
            d. ?
            m. ?

I found a good article that was written about Matthew Blanchan and the group of Huguenot's that came to the States on the Guilded Otter ship.

Go to:  The Olive Tree Geneology page by Lorine McGinnis Schulze.

Then go to the article on The Juguenot Families Uziele and Casier.  That article will give you some info on the Huguenot's.

If I find out more I will e-mail you with that info.

Thanks,  Pam Jansen
