Additions and Corrections to “Willem Adriaense Bennet of Brooklyn , N.Y. ,
and Some of His Descendants”, by Wilson V. Ledley
The Family of Isaac3
Bennet (Adriaen2, Willem1) (#14) and Magdalena
Joosten
94: 40. Isaac3’s family is probably listed
in the Kings Co., N.Y. census of 1698 in Brooklyn [1] under
the name Isaac Mennist. The last record
of Isaac Bennet is his listing in the Tax Assessment of Brooklyn on 20 Dec
1706.[2] He does not appear in a listing of
Freeholders in Brooklyn on 27 Jan 1711.[3] As seen later, his wife, Magdalena ,
remarried about that time to Joseph Fenton.
Bergen states[4] that
Isaac and his children removed to Bucks Co., Pa.
However, it appears that Isaac himself did not and his children who did
so probably did as they reached maturity. Ledley assigns a second wife, Sarah,
to Isaac. However, the baptismal record
of Sarah Bennet on 30 Sep 1732 at the Dutch Reformed Church of Bensalem[5] which is
probably the source for that assertion does not gives any indication of the
relationship between the witnesses Isaac Bennet and Sarah Bennet. Isaac was probably the first cousin of the father, while Sarah was probably paternal aunt of the baptized,
not the step-mother, all living in the area at that time.
94: 40. Isaac3’s wife, Magdalena Joosten,
was the daughter of Joost Fransen and Geertje Van Nuys, not a Van der Koek as
Ledley suggested. He referenced a land
sale recorded 6 May 1701 between Isaac Bennet
and Helena, his wife, and Michael Vanderkoek for 1/2
a plantation in Bedford ,
formerly the property of Joost ffrance (Frans).[6] Michael Van der
Koek's wife was Sara Joosten.[7] Sara and Magdalena
were daughters of Joost Frans/Fransen and Geertruyd Aukes Van Nuys. Magdalena was baptized at Midwout on 2 Nov 1679, daughter
of "Frans. Joosten" (an error in record has the names are reversed)
and Geetruid Aukes. Sponsors were Wijnand, & Huisvrouw, Jannetje Aukes
(Jannetje is in error for Annatje).[8]
Magdalena Joosten married second Joseph Fenton. Isaac probably died about 1711 when he did
not appear in the list of signers at the Brooklyn Town Meeting on 27 Jan 1711.[9] However, Joseph Fenton does appear in that
list. Joseph was taxed in Jamaica in 1709,[10] so he
moved to Brooklyn in the interim. He died by 1719 when the inventory of his estate
was taken:
“An Inventory and Appraissment Taken this Sixteenth Day of
December 1719 by us under Written of all ye personall Estate Left by Joseph
Fenten late of ye yland of Nassau Deceased upon ye Request of Adriaen Bennet
son in law of said Joseph Fenten and Casparus Kimber Another to said Joseph
Fenten.”[11]
In this document “son in law” should be understood as
step-son. “Another” should almost certainly be read as “Brother” and
understood as “half-brother”.
This understanding is supported by later interactions
between the children of Isaac Bennet and Magdalena Joosten and the children of
Joseph Fenton (son of Joseph Fenton and Magdalena Joosten) and his wife, Mary
Van Dyck as evidenced in several baptismal records:
1) Eelena of Joseph Fenten and Maritie van Dyck, bapt.
October 19, 1746. Spon: Isaac Bennet and Bettie Aarse.[12]
2) Jan of Joseph Fenten and Maritie van Dyck, bapt. December
29, 1748. Spon: Jost Bennet and Gertie Vliet.[13]
3) Agnietje, d/o Joseph Fenton and Maria Van Dyck, baptized
2 Feb 1752; Johannes Bennet and Agnietje
Bennet[14] (See later discussion for Angeniejte’s inclusion in this family.)
4) Maajeke of Jacob
Bennet and Maajeke Wykof, bapt. April 22, 1753. Spon: Joseph Tenton and
Maria Van Dyk.[15]
Of the children of Isaac and Magdalena :
94: 208. Their
son, Adriaen4, married Grietje Van Pelt and had a daughter,
Margaret, baptized at the DRC of New Utrecht in 1723[16]. He is included in a list of Freeholds in Brooklyn on 7 Jan 1724.[17] His wife was deceased by May 21, 1728 when
her father wrote his will appointing two of his sons as guardians for his
granddaughter, Margaret Bennet.[18]
94: 209, 94: 37.
Adriaen4 did not have a daughter named Barbara as assumed by Ledley,
which was based on Adriaen’s presumed second marriage to Jane Griggs. Ledley stated that Adriaen3 Bennet
(Adriaen2 Willem1) had possibly married a woman named
Catherine as his second wife and that he died intestate in 1731. Barbara Barth, in “The Family of Dirck Jansen
Woertman of Brooklyn Ferry” identifies that Catherine as the Catherine Woertman
above.[19] While the identification of Catherine is
correct (which was Barth's goal), the identification of her husband is not. As shown earlier, that Adriaen did not
survive his wife, Barbara Vonk.
With the elimination of Adriaen3 Bennet (Adriaen2,
Willem1) above as a possible husband of a woman named Catherine, it
is apparent that it was their son, Adriaen4,
who married Catherine Woertman.[20] Catherine’s subsequent history has been
largely lost due to the lack of records regarding her, the incompleteness or
inaccuracy of some of those that do exist and the misinterpretation of
others. A review of the lives of those
closest to her, i.e. her first husband, Adriaen Bennet, her second husband,
Jacob Bennet, her step-daughter, Margaret Bennet, and her sister-in-law,
Angeniejte Bennet, helps to bring her biography back. No single record proves any one of these
relationships, but taken together present a reasonable reconstruction of her
family.
Catherine is known to have married a Bennet from the will of
her father,[21]
written in October 29, 1729, which gives her married name as Bennit. They were
residents of Brooklyn , NY in 1731[22] where
the family is listed in the census with 3 males above 10 and 1 woman above
10. The other two males are probably his
brothers, Jacob who married in 1732[23] and his
brother, Joost. Adriaen and his wife,
Catherine (no maiden name given), were witnesses for the baptism of Engeltje
Blauw on 10 Oct 1731.[24] However, he was deceased by November 1731
when his widow, Catherine, was appointed executor of his estate.[25]
After Adriaen’s death, Catherine married Jacob4
Bennet (Jacob3, Adriaen2, Willem1), son of
Jacob Bennet and Barbara Verdon, as his second wife. It is not known when Jacob’s first wife,
Jannetje, died, but it was sometime before Jacob Bennet, Jr. and his wife,
Catherine, appeared as witnesses for the baptism of Catherine’s niece, Catherine
Hoogland.[26] The use of Jr. for this witness clearly
indicates that he was the son of Jacob Bennet and Barbara Verdon as the only
other Jacob born by 1720 who might have been living in Kings County
was older than Jacob Bennet, Jr.’s father.[27]
94: 209. Margaret5,
daughter of Adriaen4 Bennet and Grietje Van Pelt, married Jacob
Bergen, but Ledley notes his identification of Jacob’s parents was
questionable, and it is, in fact, partially wrong. The children of Jacob Bergen and Margret
Bennet include the children of two separate families as given by Teunis Bergen.[28] The “first” family is that of Jacob, son
Jacob Jacobse Bergen and Maria Crosen,[29] his
wife, Margaret Bennet and the first three children in the combined family
below. The “second” family is that of
Jacob, son of Frederick Bergen and Gerretje Veght, his wife Margaret
Lane [30] and the
last three children in the family below.
The children of Jacob Bergen and Margaret Bennet are as
follows:
1) Grietje6, baptized 6 May 1745;[31]
2) Gerretje6, baptized 10 June 1747,[32]
witnesses were Frederick Bergen and Gerretje Veght;
3) Adrian6, baptized 3 May 1749;[33]
4) Frederick6, baptized 08 Dec 1751;[34]
5) Jacob6, baptized 01 Aug 1756;[35]
6) Elsje6, baptized 28 Sep 1760.[36]
Jacob, son of Jacob Bennet and Maria Crosen, was baptized in
1731,[37] too late
to have married and have children of his own in 1745. The oldest son and oldest daughter of Jacob
Bergen and Margaret Bennet were named after their maternal grandparents. The witnesses for their second daughter (in
the “first” family), Gerretje6 (a somewhat unusual name) were
Frederick Bergen and Gerretje Veght.[38] Given that Jacob’s parents cannot be Jacob
Bergen and Maria Croesen, then the names of next oldest children and the
presence of Frederick Bergen and Gerretje Veght as witnesses strongly suggest
that they were the paternal grandparents of the child baptized, Gerretje6.
Jacob Bergen’s will[39]
mentions his wife, Margaret, his brother, Henry (who must be the son of
Frederick Bergen and Gerretje Veght[40]), his
daughter, Charity, his son, Jacob, his daughter, Elsje, and others. Though named Charity in his will, her name
appears as some form of Gerretje in the baptismal records of her six children.[41] She is clearly part of the “first” family
while Jacob and Elsje are part of the “second.”
Jacob Bergen probably did not marry Margaret Lane as his
second wife. She was not identified by
Honeyman in his article on the Lane family[42] and
Bergen[43] gives
no source for her maiden name.
Margaret’s will[44] makes
bequests to her daughters Charity and Elsje, making no distinction between
them, implying they were both her children.
The correct identification of the parents of Jacob is
important because Teunis Bergen attributes the following records to Jacob
Bergen and his wife Maria Crosen (whom he thought sometimes went by the name of
Margaret) ,[45]
but were in fact for his cousin, Jacob Bergen and his wife, Margaret Bennet.
On 11 Aug 1746, Jacob Bergen and his wife, Margaret, of
Richmond County, “quit claim, release &c. to Jacob Bennet and ‘Cattrenah’
his wife, of Gowanus, against all manner of actions, &c.”[46]
On 11 Oct 1746 Jacob Bergen and Margaret, his wife, convey
to Peter Van Pelt and "Christopher Schass" a farm at Gowanus, and a
woodlot No. 43.... being bound north-westerly by Cornelius Van Duyn...
south-westerly by woodlot of Jan Bennet.”[47]
23 Apr 1751 Jacob Bergen and Margaret his wife of Staten
Island sold land to Cornelius Krousen.[48]
1744 was an important year for Margaret. She became 21[49] so
likely received some settlement from her father’s estate, married Jacob about
that time and probably received a settlement from the estate of her
grandfather, Wouter Van Pelt, whose will[50] was
probated that year. The first record
above was probably in regards to property of her father. It may be related to the care Jacob Bennet
and Catherine Woertman, her step-mother, likely gave to Margaret in her
minority. The second record is probably related to the bequest of her
grandfather, Wouter Van Pelt of Gowanus.
Peter Van Pelt was her brother, named in her father’s will and
“Christopher Schass” was probably her uncle, Christopher Schaers, from whom she later received a bequest in his will.[51] The last record is probably in preparation
for their move to the New Brunswick area of New Jersey before the baptism of
their son, Frederick, there later that year.[52]
One other probable record of Catherine is the baptismal
record of Johannes, son of Johannes Bennet and Angeniejte Bennet at the DRC of
Freehold and Middletown on 5 Jun 1737.[53] The witnesses were Jacobus Bennet and
Catherine Woert. Angeniejte Bennet was
the sister of Adriaen Bennet, husband of Grietje Van Pelt, as will be seen
later. Many of the names of witnesses
were abbreviated, so it is likely that Catherine Woertman is the witness
here. Angeniejte was the sister-in-law of Catherine Woertman by her first husband,
Adrian. Though the other witness could be Angeniejte’s
brother, he had moved to PA by 1739, possibly sooner, and is not known to have
used the name Jacobus. The other witness
is probably Catherine’s second husband, Jacob Bennet, whose father or he
himself used the name of Jacobus when selling the land in 1739 mentioned above.
Jacob and Catherine may have had two children together,
Abraham and Anna Margaret, both baptized at the DRC of New Utrecht:
6 Aug 1738; Abraham; Jacob Romret, Catharina, s.v.; Joost
Schaer, Margrieta Schaer.[54]
31 Aug 1740; Anna Margrieta; Jacob Romret, Catharine, s.v.[55]
This identification assumes several corrections to the
records should be made:
1) The father’s
surname should be Bennet, not Romret.
The surname, Romret, is otherwise unknown to the author in Kings Co,
N.Y. about that time, but is close in form to Bennet. The surname was noted as
difficult to read in an earlier abbreviated transcription,[56]
allowing for the possibility it is in error.
2) One of the
witnesses at Abraham’s baptism, Joost Schaer, may actually be Stoffel Schaers.
Stoffel or Christopher Schaers was the last known male of the Schaers family in
Kings Co., N.Y. His will mentions his
Van Pelt cousins, but no descendants of his own or the Schaers family.[57]
3) The other
witness at Abraham’s baptism, Margrieta Schaer, may actually be Margaret
Bennet, daughter of Adriaen Bennet and Grietje Van Pelt. She was the
step-daughter of the presumed mother in these baptismal records. She was also the grandniece of Christopher
Schaers, the other presumed witness, and was mentioned in his will. Margaret
may have been living with the Bennets at the time, given the land transaction
noted earlier.
Besides the need for several corrections, there are no close
relatives of Jacob Bennet and Catherine Woertman with the names given these
children. Their association with this
family is speculative, but they are mentioned here in hopes that further
research may provide additional information.
In any case, if they were Jacob’s children, they died young as he makes
no mention of having descendants in his will.
Catherine died some time before Jacob wrote his will. However, she probably died much earlier, as
it appears that Jacob married as his third wife, Charity Remsen, probably the
widow of Christopher Remsen,[58] by
license dated 24 Oct 1763. His nephew,
Jacob Stellingwerf, was the fellowbondsman for his marriage license.[59]
94: 210. Their
granddaughter, Eleanor/Magdalena5 (Isaac4), probably
married John4 Bennet (Abraham3, Adriaen2, Willem1),
whose parents Ledley did not identify.
Their family will be discussed later under John’s family.
94: 210. The wife
of their grandson, Isaac5 (Isaac4), was probably
Madgalena/Leentje5 Bennet (Joost4, Isaac3,
Adriaen2, Willem1), as identified in her family
later. Isaac married a third time as his will,[60] dated
in 1786, mentions his wife, Mary, and four of his five known children, omitting
Maria6 who probably died young.
94: 213. Their grandson, Nicasies5 (Isaac4),
was probably not their grandson. As seen
earlier, he was probably the son of Isaac4 Bennet (Adriaen3,
Adriaen2, Willem1).
94: 213. Their
grandson, William5 (Isaac4), husband of Elizabeth
Wynkoop, probably moved to Amwell, Hunterdon, N.J. where his will[61] was
written 4 Apr 1806. He names his wife
Elizabeth, daughters Elizabeth6 Harrold (dec’d), Patience6
(wife of John Coffin), Polly6 (wife of Cornelius Van Horne), Sarah6
(wife of Levi Brown), Ruth6 (wife of Samuel McNair), Polly6
[sic] (wife of John Runyon), Rebecca6 Bennet, sons William6
and Gerardus6, and two grandsons.
His will was proved 13 Apr 1808.
The baptisms of Elizabeth, Sarah and Gerardus in Pa. were noted by
Ledley.
95 (1964): 11.
Their grandson, Richard5 (William4), had an additional
son, Ryck6. He was baptized
on 25 Jan 1761.[62]
95: 11. Their
granddaughter, Jannetje5 (William4), wife of Jacobus Van
Sant, had four additional children, Elizabeth6 (b. 1762), Lena 6(b.
1764), John6 (b. 1769) and Mary6 (b. 1769). Their family is listed in Barbara Barth’s
“The Dorland Enigma Solved.”[63]
95: 13. The will[64] of
William4 does not mention a son named Matthias5. It is likely that the military reference
Ledley cites is in relation to his cousin, Matthew5 Bennet (Isaac4,
Isaac3, Adriaen2, Willem1).
95: 13. Their
grandson, John5 (William4), had another daughter,
Huldah. She was baptized on 1 Jun 1804.[65]
95: 13. Their
granddaughter, Leena5, or Helena (William4), was not
baptized on 15 Nov 1752.[66] She was the wife of Thomas Craven, and was
born about 1729, based on the several additional children she had not mentioned
by Ledley. Other children included in
Thomas’ will[67]
were William6 (b. abt. 1749), Ann6 (b. abt. 1750),
Jacobus6 (b. abt. 1752), Giles6 (b. abt. 1755), Catherine6
(b. abt. 1758), Isaac6 (b. 1760), Thomas6 (b. abt. 1762),
Helen6 (b. abt 1765) and Edith/Ida6 (b. abt. 1768). The approximate birth years appear in Barbara
Barth’s “The Dorland Enigma Solved”.[68]
95: 15 and 95: 16. Their granddaughter, Charity5
(Jacob4) is likely the Geertje Bennet who married Isaac5
Bennet (Johannes4, Willem3, Willem2, Willem1),
whom Ledley had not identified.
95: 15. Jacob4 had a daughter, Agnes5,
mentioned in his will.[69] She may be his youngest daughter, baptized as
Annanitje in 1755,[70] as no
daughter named Annetje is mentioned.
However, she would have only been about 14 when as Agnus Bennet she
married Andrew Coupland[71] in
1769.
95: 15. The wife
of George4/Joost, Geertje Vliet, was tentatively identified by Ledley
as the daughter of John Vleet and Griertje Wyckoff. However, baptismal witnesses and the naming
of her children suggest that she was the daughter of Jan Van Vliet and Fytje Vanderlinde,
baptized on 13 Jun 1711 at Six Mile Run.[72] Though undocumented, Susannah Vliet, wife of
Garret Wynkoop, was probably her sister, being named after her paternal
grandmother, Susanna Hendricks.[73] Susanna and Geertje were witnesses for each
other’s children[74]
who were also named after the aunt serving as a witness. As will be seen, both had sons named
Jan/Johannes and daughters named Sophia after their maternal grandparents.
95: 15. Though
undocumented, Joost and Geertje probably had three other children:
1.
95: 207. Jan5. Ledley identifies this Jan as Johannes4
Bennet (Jacob3, Willem2, Willem1), having a second marriage to an
unknown wife. However, they were two
different men, Jan being named after his maternal grandfather, Jan Van
Vliet. His children were:
a.
Maria6 (#284). The witness for her baptism[75] was
Leentje Bennet, probably her paternal aunt (see below).
b.
Jan6 (#285).
The witness for his baptism[76] was
Geertje Bennet, probably his paternal grandmother.
c.
Permelia6 (#286). The witness for her baptism[77] was
Sophia Bennet, probably her paternal aunt (see below).
2.
94: 211. Leentje5. As mentioned above, she was the witness for
her niece, Maria, being named after her paternal grandmother, Magdalena
Joosten. She was the “Eleanor Bennet”
who married Isaac5 Bennet (Isaac4, Isaac3,
Adriaen2, Willem1), whose parents Ledley could not
identify. In the baptismal record of her
daughter, Magdalena,[78] she is
styled as “Leentye” with Joost Bennet as the witness, being the maternal
grandfather. She is styled as “Leentje”
at the baptism of her daughter, Elizabeth.[79]
3.
95:207. Sophia5. As mentioned above, she was the witness for
her niece, Permelia, being named for her maternal grandmother, Fytje
Vanderlinde. She married Garret Dungan
by license dated Mar 1761.[80] Ledley tentatively identified her as the
daughter of Isaac3 Bennet (Adrian2, Willem1)
and Magdalena Joosten.
94: 40. Isaac3 and Magdalena probably
did not have a son named Johannes.
As seen below, it was their daughter Angeniejte who married a Johannes
Bennet, not the other way around. He
could be the John Bennet of Kings Co., N.Y. who purchased land near New Brunswick,
N.J. in 1731,[81]
but he was almost certainly the same John Bennet of Brooklyn, Kings County N.Y.
who bought land in Middletown, Monmouth County, N.J. from the same couple in
1727,[82]
probably Jan3 Bennet (Willem2, Willem1).
94: 37, 94: 40.
Isaac3 and Magdalena had a daughter named Angeniejte4,
born about 1710[83]. She is placed in this family based on the
naming of her children, their presumed relationship with their baptismal
sponsors and the baptismal record of her niece, Angeniejte Fenton.[84] She married Johannes4 Bennet
(Willem3, Willem2, Willem1). Ledley had identified her as Angeniejte4
Bennet (Jan3, Adriaen2, Willem1), however, as
seen earlier, that Angeniejte4 married Rem Remsen.
95: 16, 95: 20 and
95: 163. The children of Angeniejte4 Bennet and Johannes Bennet
were attributed to three different families by Ledley:
1) Johannes4
Bennet (Isaac3, Adriaen2, Willem1) (#77) and
Angeniejte4 Bennet (Jan3, Adriaen2, Willem1). Their children were listed by Ledley as #195
- #202.
2) Johannes4
Bennet (Willem3, Willem2, Willem1)
(#106) and Annetje Couwenhoven. Their children were listed by Ledley as #266 –
#270.
3) William4
Bennet (Abraham3, Adriaen2, Willem1) (#84) and
an unknown wife. William did not
actually exist, but was assumed based on his presumed son, William, having
mentioned several nephews named William (sons of Jacob, Hendrick and Angeniejte
below), in his will.[85] Their children were listed by Ledley as #217
- #220.
95: 15, 94: 37.
Ledley stated he had difficulty identifying the parents of Johannes, head of
the first family above. Though Isaac3
and Magdalena had no known son named Johannes, Ledley relied on the assumption
that his oldest son and oldest daughter were named after their paternal
grandparents, though he noted that the baptismal sponsors of his children were
often distant cousins. Having
misidentified the parents of Angeniejte, he did not realize that she was an
undocumented daughter of Isaac3 and Magdalena and that her oldest
son, Isaac, and oldest daughter, Magdalena,[86] were
named after their maternal grandparents.
The baptismal sponsors who were distant relatives were then close
relatives.
The mother’s name, Annetje Couwenhoven, in the second family
appears to be the result of two mistakes:
1) Ledley
cites a baptismal record for Arriantje of the second family above, but the
parents listed are Hendrick Bennet and Jannetje Couwenhoven.[87] No baptismal record for their daughter,
Arriantje, has been found. The next
baptismal record is for Jacob, son of Johannes Bennet and Angeniejte Bennet,
with a note that “Couwenhove” was crossed out and Bennet inserted. This appears to be the source of her mistaken
surname, Couwenhoven.
2) The baptismal record of Isaac of the first
family lists his mother’s name as Annemietie Bennet.[88] This appears to be the source of her mistaken
given name, Annetje.
The children of Angeniejte4 and Johannes Bennet
were:
1) 95: 16. Isaac5 (#195),
baptized 27 Feb 1732,[89]
parents: Johannes Bennet, Annemietie Bennet; witnesses: Willem Couwenh[oven],
Adraantie Bennet, his wife. The
witnesses are his paternal aunt and uncle.
Isaac was named after his maternal grandfather.
2) 95: 20. William5 (#217),
born about 1733. He married first,
Catherine Warne, by license dated 01 Jul 1760.[90] He married second, Mary Prall, widow of Thomas
Warne, on 17 Mar 1782 at the DRC of Freehold.[91] His will[92]
mentions, William, son of his brother, Hendrick, and William, son of his
brother, Jacob, and William son of his brother-in-law, Walter Hyer (husband of
Angeniejte, below). William was named
after his paternal grandfather.
3) 95: 163. Arriantje5 (#266),
was born about 1735, not 1737.[93] She married Teunis Amack. Her placement in this family is based on the
naming of her children, Johannes and Angeniejte, after their maternal
grandparents. They also had children
named after their paternal grandparents.
Arriantje was named after her paternal grandmother.
4) 95: 16. Johannes5 (#196),
baptized 5 Jun 1737,[94] parents
Johannes Bennet, Agnietje Bennet, witnesses: Jacobus Bennet and Catharina
Woert. The witnesses were probably
Catherine Woertman, widow of Angeniejte’s brother, Adriaen (#72) and her second
husband, Jacob Bennet. No further
trace. He did not marry a woman named
Margaret. That was John5
Bennet (Jan4, Jan3, Willem2, Willem1),
who had an almost identical list of children.
See the discussion of his family later.
5) 95: 20. Jacob5 (#219),
baptized 29 Dec 1739[95]
(published records say 1737), parents: Johannes Bennet, Agnietie Bennet,
witnesses: Cornelius Santvoort, Geertje De Hart. Jacob married Aefje Amack and had a son named
William, baptized on 6 Feb 1774.[96]
6)
95: 17.
Hendrick5 (#197), baptized 16 May 1742,[97] parents
Johannis Bennet, Agnietje Bennet, witnesses: Hendrick Bennit, Jannetje
Couwenhove. The witnesses were his paternal uncle and aunt. He married Neeltje Colwell by license dated 12
Jan 1762.[98] Neeltje, daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth
Colwell, was baptized on 25 Feb 1748 at Christ Church, Shrewsbury, N.J., being
6 ¾ years old, living at Middletown Point, N.J. at the time.[99] Her brother, William, was baptized the same
day.[100] William Colwell and Hendrick Bennett applied
for a remedy for a lost deed for land at Middletown Point sold to Thomas
Colwell that had burnt in a fire at Hendrick’s home in 1786.[101]
Shortly after that, Hendrick’s family moved to Mohawk, Montgomery Co., N.Y.,
before the 1790 census.[102] He died at Halfmoon, Saratoga Co., N.Y. where
his will[103]
was written on 28 Oct 1806 and was probated in Saratoga County on 13 Oct
1806. In it he names his children: Ada6
Lanosam, eldest daughter, John6, eldest son, Thomas6,
second son, Mary6 Bell, second daughter, Elizabeth6
Schouten, third daughter, William6, fourth son, Cornelius6,
fifth son, Hendrick6, Jr. (without number, but probably the third
son), Peter6 (without number, but probably the sixth son). Four of their children were baptized at the
Dutch Reformed Church of Freehold.[104] Their daughter, Annanitie6
(probably a corruption of Angenitje), is not mentioned in the will. Their son, Johannes, did not die in 1846 in
New Jersey. That was Johannes5
Bennet (John4, probably Jacob3, Willem2,
Willem1). He was baptized 19
Jan 1766,[105]
so he also was 80 when he died.
7)
95: 17.
Magdalena5 (#198), baptized 17 Nov 1745,[106]
parents: Johannis Bennit, Agnietje Bennit.
She was named after her maternal grandmother.
8) 95: 17, 95: 21. Angeniejte5
(# 199 & #220), baptized 03 Jul 1748,[107]
parents: Johannes Bennit, Agnietje Bennet.
She did not marry James Van Brackle as she would have only been 13 when
their marriage license was issued on 2 Nov 1761.[108] That Agnes was born in Brooklyn.[109] Angeniejte5 married Walter Hyer
and had their son, William, baptized at the Reformed Dutch Church of Freehold
on 25 Jun 1769.[110]
9) 95: 17. Geertje5 (#200),
baptized 22 Sep 1750,[111]
parents: Johannis Bennit, Agnite Bennit; witnesses: Cornelis Luyster and
Ariaantje Cowenhoven, who was probably Johannes’ niece.
10) Cornelius5
(#201), baptized 04 Jan 1756.[112]
11) Maria5
(#202 & #270), baptized 08 Aug 1758.[113]
95: 164. Peter5
(#269) may have been their son as Ledley assumed, but given the spacing of
their children above it seems doubtful.
However, a better placement has not been identified. He did not marry Elizabeth Stout (whose
maiden name only appears in the last record cited by Ledley) and the John
Bennet baptized on 10 Apr 1796 was not his son. The maiden name of the wife of Peter5 is unknown.
Peter Bennet and Elizabeth Stout were married in Somerset Co., N.J. by
license dated 12 Jul 1795.[114] The family moved to Cayuga Co., N.Y. where
four of their other children were baptized.[115] Elizabeth Stout was probably the daughter of
Thomas and Jannetje Stout, baptized 29 Mar 1772.[116] This Peter Bennet was probably the son of John5 Bennet (Hendrick4, William3, William2, Willem1) and Maria Post.[117] If correct, four of their five known children
were named after their grandparents.
Besides Peter, of the other sixteen children in the three
families outlined by Ledley, all were children of Johannes Bennet and
Angeniejte Bennet, except the following:
1. Hendrick
(#218). He was probably the son of
Hendrick4 Bennet (Willem3, Willem2, Willem1)
and Jannetje Couwenhoven. His oldest
son, Hendrick,[118] and
his oldest daughter, Jannetje,[119] were
probably named after their paternal grandparents. His wife, Ann, was named in the will of Elsje
Jewell,[120]
possibly the daughter of Richard and Elsje Jewell mentioned in his will,[121] but
Ann has not been placed in the Jewell family.
2. Agnes
(#267), wife of James Van Brakle. She
was the daughter of William4 Bennet (Jacob3, Adriaen2,
Willem1). See the discussion
of that family later.
3. William
(#268). He was the son of Jan4
Bennet (Jan3, Willem2, Willem1). See the discussion of that family later.
94: 40. Isaac3
and Magdalena did not have a daughter named Sophia4. She was their granddaughter, Sophia5
Bennet (Joost4, Isaac3, Adriaen2, Willem1),
identified earlier.

An examination of the Bennet family shows there
were only Jacob Bennets with a son named Jacob Bennet born before 1720. Even considering the designation Jr. may have
only meant “the younger” there were only eight Jacob/Jacobus Bennets born
before 1720. Of these, Jacob # 68 is the
only one who could be the husband of Catherine.

Teunis Bergen, The
Bergen Family: Or, The Descendants of
Hans Hansen Bergen (Albany:
Joe Munsell, 1876). The “first” family is listed on page 568. The “second” family, page 555, lists the
mother as Margaret Lane . Jacob’s will includes a daughter named
Charity who is actually part of the first family. His will also mentions a grandson, Roelof Van
Dyck, who is probably the son of his daughter, Margaret, of the “first”
family. Bergen
lists a daughter named Maria in the “first” family, but she is not mentioned in
her father’s will. Her oldest child was
born in 1791, making her inclusion in this family doubtful. Her husband, John
Newbury, appears to have died just before the 1800 census when she is listed in
Southfield, Richmond Co., NY as Mary Newbury, age 16-26 with two daughters under
10 (see Richmond, New York 1800 Federal
Census, transcribed by James Elbrecht,Jr.,
http://us-census.org/pub/usgenweb/census/ny/richmond/1800/pg00001.txt accessed 13 Feb 2015. Bergen includes a son named Hendrick in the
“second” family, not mentioned in his father’s will, see Elmer

“Records of the Dutch Congregations of Freehold and Middletown.” GMNJ 24 (1949): 48. The record as published has the year as 1737, but should be 1739. Over half of the
families with a baptismal record in the first group of records marked from mid
1737 to the end of 1737 (pages 46 – 48) had a child baptized in the second
group of 1737 baptisms (pages 49 – 51).
In the years from 1736 through 1739, most of the baptisms occur on
Wednesdays, except for the first group of 1737 baptisms. However, if the year actually was 1739, then most of those baptisms are on Wednesdays as well. As an example, Johannes Voorhees was supposedly baptized on 30 Mar 1737 (no date given, but is the previous date listed in the register, followed by 8 Jul), but he was born on 11 Jun 1739 (The Van Voorhees Family in America, the First Six Generations, Florence Christoph, pg. 53), and he had a sister, Annetje, born 10 Sep 1737, baptized at the same church on 9 Oct 1737, just over 6 months apart.
