Trynitje Pieters ( This is my line);
5. Unknown Spier (daughter) b. New Amsterdam;
6. Unknown Spier (daughter) b. New Amsterdam;
Notes: Hendrick Spier, his wife and two childern
settled in New Amsterdam in 1659. He later moved to Long Island (Now
Brooklyn). In 1662 he was residing at Bergen (Now Jersey City, NJ) In
1694 his widow sold the land at Bergen to pay his debts. His son Hans
along with his bother Jan were part of the orginal Patentees of the
Acquackanonk Purchase which included what is now Passiac, Paterson and
Clifton, NJ.
Notes From Lorine: I believe you will find that Janet T. Reimer's article "The Early Spier Family" as published in The Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey Jan. 1980 vol. 55, Number 1, is a terrific resource for this family.
Be aware though that in her list of children for Hendrick Spier & Magdalena Hans/Jans, the inclusion of a possible daughter Tryntie bp. 12 July 1654 as found in the NY RDC records, is not correct. This Trynite is an Oosteroom.
The ancestor of the Oosteroom family in New Jersey was Hendrick Janszen. He married Tryntie Lubbertse (born ca 1637 Albany NY) on 4 Dec. 1652 in the Reformed Dutch Church in New York City. His wife Tryntie was the daughter of the immigrant ancestor of the New Jersey Van Blaricom (Blarcom) family - Lubberts Gysbertse, a wheelwright from the town of Blaricom in the Netherlands who came to the colony of Rensellaerswyck in 1634. This Hendrick Janszen and his wife Tryntie had a daughter Tryntje baptised 16 Aug 1654 Reformed Dutch Church in New York City.
The sponsors were Jan Corneliszen BUYS (aka DAMEN who was married to Tryntie's sister Eybetye, Gysbert Lubbertszen (a brother to Tryntie), and Aeltje Schryvers) Of course DAMEN is my line.
The arrival date you show for Hendrick of 1659 is the date of his second arrival in the New World. His marriage to Magdaleen Jans is found in the records of the Reformed Dutch Church in New York City on 14 Sept. 1652 as such:
"Hendrick Janszen van Aschwaerde in't Stift Bremen en Magdaleen Jans van Swol".
We know that Hendrick was in NY then in 1652.

Marr. Catelyntje Hendricks JACOB 26 Aug. 1698 Acquackanonk, Essex, Dutch

Notes:
Hendrick Janszen SPIER arrived in New
Amsterdam prior to 14 September 1652, as he married Magdaleen Jans VAN
SWOL on this date. (This is the only record where her patroymic is
recorded Jans instead of Hans.) Apparently Hendrick visited Holland
shortly thereafter as he, his wife and children, returned to New
Amsterdam on De Trouw (The Faith) on 23 December 1660. It appears that
Hendrick Spier died prior to 4 September 1674, as a patent for land on
Staten Island was granted to Jans and Hans Spieringh, two of his sons, on
that date. It is certain that he died prior to May 1679 when a son of
Magdalen Hansen, widow of Henrick Jansen Spier, was buried at Bergen.
(Now Jersey City.) Magdaleen married 2nd, Harmen EDWARDS, and 3rd, Jan
Aertsen VAN DER BILT on 11 Dec. 1681.
The arrival of Hendrick Jansen SPIER in what is now New Jersey occurred
following his purchase of twenty-five morgens of land near Gemenoepa in
July 1662 from Annatien Dircksen, widow of Pieter Kock. This land was
one-half of that originally granted to Klaes Karstensen Noorman on 24
March 1647. Hendrick's purchase was confirmed by a patent from Governor
Carteret on 12 May 1668. The patent stated that the land was at
Mingackqua. It remained in the Spier family until 1 May 1768 when it was
sold to Jacob Van Wagenen. Hendrick Spier evidently moved to New Jersey
and was living at Mingackqua in 1662 as he was one of three men who
signed a petition refusing support of a clergyman at Bergen Dutch
Reformed Church.
Hendrick Jansen SPIER's descendants have come to spell their name SPEER
and also SPEAR, the former being the most common. This SPIER line is
frequently confused with the PIER line.

Notes: Steven Coerts/Koerts VAN VOORHEES was aged
60 at the time of his arrival in New Amsterdam, NY. Steven Koerts was
married twice. His first wife, the mother of his first three known
children, is unknown. She apparently died in Holland, but no record
concerning her has been found. Steven's second wife, Willempje Roelofse
SEUBERING, was born in 1619, died in 1690 and was the mother of the
younger children. The ages given in the ship's record cannot, with
certaintly, prove the age of any except Koert/Coert who obviously would
be age 22. In addition, there were seven children specified, but only six
ages given. The names of the children are proven by a deed dated March 8,
1697. (Book 2, pg. 34, Kings County Deeds)
Steven Koerts definitely
had two daughters named Hendrickje, one by each wife. The first was born
in Holland and arrived with her husband Jan Kiersen in 1660. The second
daughter Hendrickje was also born in Holland, arrived in 1660, and
married Albert Albertse TERHUNE, who married two times after Hendrickje's
death, 2nd to Weyntie BRICKERS (my line), and 3rd to Marritie DE GRAVES
(also my line)
Steven Koerts acquired the equipment necessary for the
brewing business, so it is assumed that he followed this business.
Unfortunately, the Flatlands (Flatbush) Reformed Dutch Church has few
early records, but Steven Coert and his wife are listed as members of the
Church in 1677. It is known, however, that he was appointed a magistrate
in 1664 and on March 19, 1664, with Elbert Elbertse (STOOTHOFF), he
represented Nieuw Amersfoort in the Provincial Assembly. In October 1667
Steven Coertes with others, patented the town of Flatlands.

Notes: The ancestor of the BANTA family in
America, Epke JACOBS, was a farmer who lived in the vicinity of
Harlingen, an important seaport of Friesland, the most northern of the
provinces of the Netherlands. Upon arrival in America, Epke JACOBS
probably settled in Flushing, Long Island, NY and was an innkeeper
according to New York records. About 1671 he had a mill in the adjoining
town of Jamaica, NY.
Subsequently, Epke JACOBS removed to New Jersey,
settling at Bergen, (Now Jersey City), probably prior to 1675. In 1681
he purchased land at Hackensack, Bergen Co., NJ. A deed, not recorded,
for property at what is now called Ridgefield Park, on the east side of
the river, two miles below Hackensack, was in existence a number of years
ago. It was dated 17 June 1685 and was made by Epke JACOBS to Hendrick
Joris Brinckerhoff, in the possession of whose descendants the land
remained for 200 years. (The deed was kept in an old oaken chest in the
Brinckerhoff homestead.) The late James Riker examined this deed for the
signature of Epke JACOBS.
The descendants of Epke JACOBS came to be
known by the surname BANTA. The first appearance of the surname BANTA,
as far as is known, is 22 August 1696, when Jannetie Cornelese BANTA
married Johannes MEYER.

Notes: David ACKERMAN was the son of Laurens
Hendrickse ACKERMAN and his wife, Janneke. He married Elisabeth BELLIER,
the daughter of Jean BELLIER and Catherine HERQUE on 16 Sept. 1641.
David and Elisabeth were living in Berlicum, North Brabant, a few miles
south of Oss and Geffen, when they decided to emigrate to America. The
Dutch West Indies Company ledger for this trip is still preserved in the
New York State Archives in the State Library at Albany, NY.
Unfortunately, David did not get to enjoy the new world of America, as he
died probably in 1662 at sea, but definitely before 6 Jan. 1663 when his
wife Lizabeth and their oldest child, daughter Anneken, joined the church
in New Amsterdam. Elizabeth was a resourceful, hard working woman and
raised these children on her own, on what was later Whitehall Street,
NYC. Lisbet served beer and some food, and traded a few beaver pelts to
make money. She didn't remarry until 29 Jan. 1668, now at the age of 52,
to Kier WOLTHERS. She and her boys moved to Harlem, just north of NYC, to
his farm. Sadly, she died a couple of months later.

Kinderhook area. Their records are apparently with the Dutch
Reform Church. I have been unable to search these records
myself. Ariaantje Gardenier married John Woodcock on the
19th of May 1702,in Kinderhook, Albany County, NY.
John Woodcock was born in New York State about 1675.
If anyone has information on this family I would appreciate
hearing from them.
--------------------------------------------------
Note From Lorine: The Jan Jacobse you are seeking is in Pearson's Genealogies of the First Settlers of Albany on pp 52-23. Jan was the s/o Jacob Jansz Gardenier aka Flodder who came to Beverwyck as early as 1638. Jacob was md. to Josyna unkown and then to Barentje Stratsmans. You need to be looking under Flodder as well as Gardenier for this family.
