The numbering system used in my files is the Modified Henry system. Each unique number represents the generation (the number of digits) and the birth order of each individual, as well as his complete ancestry, back to the first listed progenitor (1. or A.). Starting with immigrant, or first known ancestor as "1.", the next generation would include: "11.", "12". and "13.", three children. Where more than 9 children were born in any family, the letters "a", "b", "c", etc. are used to represent the individual. Where birth order is unknown, letters at the end of the alphabet are used for the individuals, i.e. "w", "x", "y" and "z", etc. After each 5 generations, a "." is placed to make generation counting easier.
I have the following information on the ancestors and descendants of Thomas Brouwer BANCKER. The numbering is in the Modified Henry System, where each persons number reflects his ancestry. See # 12726. for your Magdalena/Helena.

Gerrit was a factor in New Netherland's for Dirck de Wolff for nearly 15 years (ca. 1651-1664). The de Wolff Company was one of the four major trading companys in New Netrherlands, along with Verbrugge, van Rennselaer and van Hoornbeeck Companies. For this he received a share in the company's profits. He also received a farm and a house for his family on one of the company's parcels on Manhattan Island. He was replaced by Harmen Vedder, as factor, about 1664, when Dirck's son Abel, took charge of the company, about the time of the Dutch surrender of New Amsterdam to the English in 1664.

For this they were to pay 1 beaver skin per year for seven years and then 5 beaver skins per year, everafter.
