I found the information re:Mathys and his ancestry.There is a Hotaling Association in the US and this information was sent to me by Michael Hotaling.His source was Lauren Houghteijling of the Netherlands whoresearched records in the Dutch Genealogy Center in the Rijksarchive that says Coenraad married Maria Piparts August 2, 1642. in Amsterdam and had the following children: Paulus, b. 15 Jul 1642, Martinus, b. 4 Aug 1643,
Johannes, b. 4 Apr 1649.There is also a record of Mathys, b. 1639 and a note in the file that says that Martinus is Mathys - the two names are close in Dutch.Lauren also says that the name came from the farm "hoogh teylingen" where almost all of the family lived.I also have information about authors who have written about the family namely, Marian & Joseph Kassack and Constance Ross Ulrich.I find nothing to indicate that Mathys was not Dutch.We know that he was an orphan when he was sent from an almshouse in Amsterdam by the Dutch West Indies Trading Company to populate the new world.
