In reply to:
Origin of the "Van Alstyne" Name
7/29/00
As a follow-up:Jan Martense was married to Dirckje Harmense (born in 1625) when he came to America.They then had 8 children: John Janse, Herman Janse, Abraham Janse, Lambert Janse, Martin, Dorothea, Flammetje, and Teutje.
Martin (born in Old Fort, New Amsterdam) married Jannetje Cornelise Bogart in 1678.They lived in Albany until 1713, when they moved with his brother Isaac to Kanajoharie, NY.They were builders. Martin and Jannetje had 9 children, one of whom was also named Martin.Jannetje died in childbirth.
This second Martin married Cornelia Vanden Berg and had 5 kids, one of whom was Gysbert (born in 1716).We are his decendants. I have it traced all the way down to my great-great grandmother, who married a Wyles, if anyone is interested.
