Banta Family Genealogy Forum
  
I am a descendent of Epke Jacobse and Cornelius Epke Banta born in about 1643 in Hackensack NJ. Epke Jacobse immigrated from Friesland, Holland in 1659 on a trading vessel. From what I gather he was a member of the Dutch East India Company. I am seriously interested in anyone with any information on the geneology of the Banta family. My mother was Cecelia C. Banta, Daughter of Frederick Martyr Banta born 23 Aug 1891, son of Edwin P. Banta Jr., born 24 June 1872, son of Edwin Perry Sr born 28 Apr 1851, son of Geirge Banta born 26 Apr 1816, son of Petrus Banta born 6 Mar 1772, son of Jan Banta born 18 Dec 1937...direct relation to Epke Jacobse who took on the name of Banta at the marriage of his son Cornelius to Jeannetie Depre in 1685. I would like to hear from any onewho is related to, or has information on this family. Sincere thanks!!!
