There is great confusion over Maria who md. Abraham LE ROUX, and Maria
UZIELE aka Maria Oeyke who married my ancestor Leonard-Remi/Treny LE ROY,
called by the Dutch first - Jonar LARUA then Jonas LARROWAY.
The Maria who md. Jonas LARROWAY began having children in 1704 and was
still having them in 1723 at which time the Maria bpt 1662 was 61 years
old.
The Maria who did marry Jonas LARROWAY, was Maria the daughter of Pieter
UZIELLE & Cornelia DAMEN. This Maria was born ca 1686 in NY and at her
marriage to Jonas in 1703 was listed as Maria Oyecke Zielle. Zielle is a
variation on the UZIELE name.
Notes: The UZIELEs are a registered Huguenot line. I welcome any and all
exchanges of information on this family or its collateral lines.

Eyck
Guert Roosa b. 1660-1664 d. June 15, 1664
Annetje Roosa b. abt 1662
Notes: Albert Heymanse Roosa was sometimes listed as Allert Heymanse and
Aldert Heymans. I am descended from his son Hymen Albert Roosa who married
Anna Margriet Rosenvelt daughter of Claes Martenszen Van Rosenvelt. Albert
Heyman lived in Wildwyck and later in Hurley, Ulster Co NY. He appears to
have been a feisty individual and his name was often mentioned in court
records. He had two daughters kidnapped by the Esopus Indians in the
uprising of 1663. He later got both daughters back.

Notes: Jesias Bartley/Bartlett was the grandson of one John Bartlett an
early settler of Windsor, Connecticut who arrived there before 1641. The
family name seems to have been modified from Bartlett in Connecticut to
Bartley in New York. Perhaps this was a Dutch influence? Almost of the
family church records from the 1697 marriage of Jesias until the time of
the American Revolution are in the Dutch Reformed Church and generally the
marriages of this family were to persons of Dutch origin. Most of the
descendants of Jesias seem to have moved to Dutchess Cty, starting around
1715 and were resident there until the time of the Revolution. They seem to
have been closely associated with the Buys family there. At least two of
the sons of Hendrick Bartley, Josiah and Michael were Loyalists who came to
Ontario after serving in the KRRNY and settled in Fredericksburg Township.

Source of Information: "The Dorland Family in America"
Immigrant's Children:
Gerret Gerretse b. 1665 Brooklyn;m.Cornelia de BEAUVOIS (only child of
first wife)
Notes: Jan Gerretse DORLANDT settled first near the ferry on Fulton Street,
and then moved to the village of Bedford (Brooklyn) by 1654. He and his
son, Gerret Gerretse, are both mentioned in a number of land transactions
in New Amsterdam (sources: Kings County Deeds and NY Genealogical and
Historical Register). His name is on the list of those who signed the oath
of allegiance to the English government in 1687, and he was elected a town
commissioner of Brooklyn that year, a position which he filled till 1701 or
later. He was a member of the Reformed Dutch church in Brooklyn 1677 and
was an elder there in 1711. Children baptised in this church include Gerret
Gerretse, Elias, Samuel, Christina, Gertrude, Rem, Mary, Anna, Elsie, and
Jan. The DORLAND family can be traced in Kortenhoef until at least 1500.
Before then, one Dutch researcher has traced the family back to Ghijsbrecht
van Nijenrode "named Dorlant" & assistant of the "famous Jan van Egmond at
Eastern 1419". His father was Gerrit (Gerard) Splinter van Ruwiel,
shield-bearer, who m. Maria Persijn van Velsen and d. abt. 1397.
Ghijsbrecht was a knight, "Master of Nijenrode, Velzen, Poel, etc." and m.
1) Belia van Leijenburg and 2) a daughter of Otto van der Poel. Ghijsbrecht
d. between Aug 3 - Nov. 3 1396. One of Ghijsbrecht's four known children
(not necessarily legitimate) was Jan Ghijsberts Dorlant, who is probably
the grandfather of Jan Dorland of Kortenhoef. This ancestry certainly
accounts for two of the common names encountered in the family: Gerrit &
Jan. Our line of Dorlandts moved first to Long Island (near Oyster Bay) and
then to Orange County, NY, where Charles DORLAND arrived about the time of
the French & Indian War (1756). The family remained in Orange County, NY
till the end of the 19th century, when our branch moved back to the NYC
area, where I was born.
