Melissa,

Thank you for the further information.  I have a listing of over 1000 names,but will give you some of the oldest names and dates that I can.

The full number of children of Theunis and Gerritje were 8 (ten births, two
died young as you will see in the naming pattern)
1. Hendrickje
2. Marritje
3. Elias
4. Gerrit
5. Rebekka
6. Rachel
7. Jacob
8. Solomon
9. Rebekka
10. Rachel

1. Nothing that I have found gives much information on Hendrickje.  I know
she was baptized on May 22, 1676 in Bergen, NJ.  She was taken into the
church at Kingston at 17 years of age and no later trace was found of her.

2. I only know she was born about 1678.

3. He was baptized on November 23, 1679 at Kingston, NY and you have the
information on the wife.

4. Gerrit is where my family line comes from.  He was baptized on March 12,
1682 in Kingston, NY, married in 1706 to Antje Delva (I have no info on her
yet) and I know of two children - Jacobus (my line) and Antony.

5. She was baptized February 10, 1684 at Kingston, NY and the date of death
is unknown.

6. She was baptized January 17, 1686 in Kingston, NY.  Date of death
unknown.

7.He was born January 15, 1688 in Kinston, NY and died young.  Date
unknown.

8. Solomon I have no personal information on, but he married Elsjen
Schoonmaker and they had three children: John, Maria and Gerritje.

9. Rebekka was baptized January 28, 1692 in Kington, NY and married Baren
Nieuwkerk.

10.  Rachel was baptized December 22, 1695 in Kington, NY and married John
Hood.

I can provide you with the information that I have on the Grandchildren of
Theunis and Gerritje if you would like.  I would have to send that under a
seperate e-mail, though.  I do work from home in the evenings and can be
contacted over the ICQ chat program (number 23240285) or the AOL instant
messenger at MiaXMisty.
