Additions and Corrections to “Willem Adriaense Bennet of Brooklyn , N.Y. ,
and Some of His Descendants”, by Wilson V. Ledley
The Family of Willem3
Bennet (Willem2, Willem1) (#21) and Arriantje Vandewater
94: 156. They did
not have a daughter named Vytie4, baptized 15 Nov 1690 at the DRC of
Flatbush.[1] That record is an incorrect duplicate record
of the baptism of Grietje on 15 Nov 1689 at the First Reformed Dutch Church of Brooklyn .[2] There are two other incorrect duplicate
records on 20 Oct 1689 at Brooklyn [3] and as
20 Oct 1690 at Flatbush.[4]
94: 156. Adrianna4,
wife of William Couwenhoven, had another daughter, not named, baptized at
Freehold 1 Jan 1727/28.[5]
94:156. Either Grietje4 or Mary4 probably married Henry Tiebout, as Johannes Bennet is named as his brother [sic] in the administration of his estate on 18 Dec 1738.[5a] Neither Grietje nor Mary are mentioned in the will of Geertje, dated 14 Apr 1746, so if either of them did, it is likely they had no descendants.[5b]
94:156. Either Grietje4 or Mary4 probably married Henry Tiebout, as Johannes Bennet is named as his brother [sic] in the administration of his estate on 18 Dec 1738.[5a] Neither Grietje nor Mary are mentioned in the will of Geertje, dated 14 Apr 1746, so if either of them did, it is likely they had no descendants.[5b]
95: 161. Their
grandson, William5 (Hendrick4) is probably the William
Bennet who died before 19 July 1815 when his undated will[6] written
in Middletown , Monmouth Co., N.J. was
proved. Two of his known children,
Hannah6 and Garret6 are named in his will. His son, William H.6, is mentioned
as simply William, noting that he had already received his portion.
Margaret Smith, wife of William5 (Hendrick4)
was the daughter of John and Bardina Smith of Freehold, Monmouth Co., N.J. She is named as Margaret Bennet in the will
of her father.[7] After the death of the executors, William
Bennet was made administrator and William H. Bennet, undoubtedly his son, was
one of the fellowbondsmen.
William6 is likely the unnamed child in the
baptismal record of 7 Jun 1761. He is
probably the William Bennet, born 8 Sep 1760,[8] who
married Deborah, daughter of John Patterson.[9] One of the witnesses to John’s will was
Robert Bennet, probably the son of William6 and Deborah, as he is
buried in the same cemetery,[10] named
after his maternal uncle.
Ledly lists a daughter for William and Margaret named Jephta
baptized on 10 Nov 1758, however, there is no such baptismal record. William and Margaret had a child, [11]
unnamed, baptized on 19 Oct 1758. The
next child baptized that day was named Jephta.
Their unnamed child was probably the Genie Tyson named in her father’s
will.
Hendrick6 (William5, Hendrick4)
is not mentioned in his father’s will.
However, he married his cousin, Elizabeth Nowlan.[12] The William Bennet baptized on 16 Dec 1775
that Ledley attributed to his uncle, Hendrick5 Bennet (Hendrick4)
and Elizabeth White, was actually their son.
Other children included in William5’s will, but
not mentioned by Ledley were Elizabeth6 Nowlan’s child, Margaret7
Nowlan and Mary6 Bennet.
95: 161, 95: 20. Their grandson, Hendrick5
(Hendrick4) did not marry Elizabeth White, as mentioned earlier. He married a woman named Ann. Ledley identified that Hendrick’s father as
William4 Bennet (Abraham3, Adriaen2, Willem1),
however, as seen earlier, that William4 did not exist. The naming of his oldest son, Hendrick, and
his second daughter, Jannetje, after the paternal grandparents support his
placement in this family.
95: 162, 94: 40, 94:
37. As noted earlier, Johannes4 did not marry Angeniejte4
Bennet (Jan3, Adriaen2, Willem1), but
Angeniejte4 Bennet (Isaac3, Adriaen2, Willem1). See the earlier discussion under her name for
their family.
