1809 | The first reference to 'Wolfer Gerritse' occurred when Wulphert Gerrits signed an agreement with his stylized A. According to the terms of that document, he agreed to assume the property and debts of the deceased parents of his wife Neeltgen Jacobsdr from the other heirs for 100 guilders. Her brother Herman Jacobsz also signed this document, as well as her brother-in-law Willem Dircx who was married to Aeltgen Jacobs Petergen Petersdr, the underage daughter of her brother Peter Jacobsz, had already recieved 50 guilders on December 15, 1611. On March 22, 1612 Wulphert Gerritsz and his wife Neeltgen Jacosdr sold a bleach camp outside the Coppelpoort of Amersfoort to Hendrick Janss and his wife Hasgenb Thonis fo 1,200 Carolus guilders. The occupation of Wolfert is not disclosed in this document In the settlement of the estate of Wolfert's wife in Amersfoort, it was declared before the court that his profession at the time was baker on August 8, 1612 at Amersfoort, Utrecht, Netherlands. Wolphert took part in a curiious agreement with Herman Zieboltz of Amsterdam, before Johan Van Ingen, an officer of the court of Utrechet. The name of the Amsterdammer suggests that he was a German or that he was of German descent. His name is also spelled Syboelt and Zyeboltz in those documents. According to a "donatiaq iner vivos" (gift to a living person) Ziebolz gave Wolphert two morgans of turf ground near Cologne in recognition of services rendered (but not payment for them). No monetary amount is mentioned for the services or the turf ground. In a second document of the same date issued by the same officer of the court of Utrecht, Ayeboliz made a debt owed by mim by Henrick Adrianesz and Adriaen Adriansz over to Wulpher Gerrits, baker, and Cornelis Wynantsz, inkeeper. This second document authorized Wulpher Gerritss and Cornelis Wynantsz to assume ownership of the two morgens of turfground mentioned in the first document. These documents create the impression that Zieboltz was unable to pay Wolfert money that he owed him, that the Amsterdammer made over a debt on which he had not been able to collect, and that Wolfert may have agreed to these vague terms because he would otherwise not be able to retrieve anything from his business dealings with the Zieboltz on April 14, 1615. Wulpher Gerritss, baker, appeared as a witness before Johan van Ingen officer of the court of Utrecht, in a case in which Willem Gerritz miller testified that Griet Maes was evading the city grain tax. The document does not specify that Wulpher and Willem were brothers, and if such were the case, it is likely that this would have been discussed in the document. On May 16, 1616. Hendrick Janss and Haesgen Thonis made the last payment on the bleach camp which they had purchased from Wolfert Gerretse and Neeltge Jacbsdr, and the property was made over to them. On October 28, 1616. Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven from Aert van Schayck and his wife Anna Barents a house on the Langegraft in Amersfoort which lay between the house of the aforesaid Aert on the one side and that of Henrickgen Barents, widow of Aelbert Conrneiss, on the other side, while the breadt of the house lay on the Lieverrouwestraet (Dear Lady Street). Wolphert was listed as a baker. On January 30, 1617 at Langegraft, Amersfoort, Utrecht, Netherlands. Within a short time, Wolphert placed three mortgages on this house. Perhaps the transactions with Zieboltz were unprofitable, and this was one of the causes fo his need for money. On Feb 15, 1617, Wulpher Gerritss baker and his wife Neeltgen Jacobsdr borrowed 100 guidlers from the Armen te Amersfoort on which he agreed to pay 6 guilders per year. On May 16, 1617, Wulpher Gerritss baker and his wife Neeltgen borrowed 200 guilders from Cornelis Baecx van der Tommen at a yearly interest of 12 guilders. On Jul 25, 1617, Wul;phur Gerritss baker and his wife Neelttgen Jacobsdr borrowed 250 guilders from Anna Goerts widow of Franck Frandkss at 15 guilders interest per year. Between February, 1617 and July, 1617. Wulphert Gerritsz and his wife Neeltgen Jacobs purchased a bleachcamp outside the Coppelpoort of Amersfoort with Hubert Lambertsz Moll and his wife Geertgen Cornisdochter as thier partners. They borrowed 500 Carolus Guilders from Ghijsbert Cornelisz van Cuijlenburch, a citizen of the city of Utrecht, at an annual interest of 25 guilders and 20 stivers. In addition, Hubert Lamberts and his wife Geertje Cornelisdochter contracted a special mortgage for 400 Carolus guilders with the consent of Wulffert Gerritsz and his wife. On the north side of the property lay the River Eem, on the east the city moat and on the south and west the heirs of Gerrit van Speulde. This propety came with two other mortgages: 200 guilders to the Poth and 600 guilders to Jo. Catharina van Morendael not yet conveyed to her. In a codicil, Wulpher Gerritsz baker and his wife Neeltgen Jacobs become party to the mortgage of Hubert Lambertsz Moll and his wife Geertge Cornelis for 400 guilders with interest on Ghijsbert Cornelisz van Culenborch with restriction that Wulpher would pay 150 guilders in the year 1618 and thereafter be free of obligation. In the margin is a notation that Dirck van Cullenburch as heir of his father Gysbert van Culenburch acknowledged that the obligation on the mortgage was fully paid on Mar 5, 1628 on January 3, 1618. In the seventeenth century, a bleach camp was a capital intensive, seasonal business which required the labor of relatively many workers. Profits were meager because the buyers of the finished product and the suppliers of raw matierials such as lye were generally the same persons, and they acted to keep their costs and thus the profits of the bleachers low. There were three types of bleaching activities, and the skills and experience required of workers was generally so high that each bleachery specialized in but one sort of material: Yarn (garenblekerij), woven cloth (lijnwaadblekerij), or clothing (klerenblekerij). In all three cases, the material was first generally cooked in a lye solution and later spread out on green grass for many weeks in small fields surrounding the bleach house where it was kept damp. Later, it was cooked in a solution of wheat meal before being again spread on the field for a lengthy period, the entire process requiring about three months. The consequences of this long procedure was that only wealthy people were the customers of clothing bleachers because only they could afford to part with many items of clothing for so long a time. No equipment of the bleach camp listed in the purchase document for Wolphert are given. So no indication of what type of bleachery Wolphert purchased. The bleach camp he sold in 1612 included a bleach table meaning it may have been a cloth bleach camp. Wulphert Gerrits, baker, and his wife, Neeltge Jacobs, contracted a mortgage with Coenraet Fransz, former mayor of the city of Amersfoort, for 100 guilders at an annual interest of 6 guilders, with the house of Wulphert on the Langegracht as security, which house lay between the house of Aert van Schayck and that of Hednrickgen Speldemaeckster. It does not appear that Wolferts endeavor as bleacher met with great success, and this may have been caused by a general malaise in the weavers trade in Amersfoort in this period, which in turn lay on a lack of capital. Because Wolfert's work was dependent on this industry, he was limited as a businessman by the lack of success of the parent industry. On September 17, 1618. Wolphert was appointed guardian over the five under aged children of Willem Gerritsz Couwenhoven. From NYGBR Wulffer Geridtz, bleacher residing by the Coppelpoort and Harman Willemsz citizen of Amersfoort as "bloetvoochden" (blood guardians) of the five sons of Willem Gerridsz Couwenhoven, namely Gerridt, Willem, Jan, Harmen, and Willem the Younger, none of whom had yet reached the age of majority, made an agreement with the mother of the children Neeltgen Willemsdr the widow of Willem Gerridtsz assisted by the owner of Cowenhoven the honorable Johan de Wijs. This document indicates that Wolfert Gerritse had a brother Willem and that he was the tenant of the farm Couwenhoven which was owned by Johan de Wijs. This document indicates that Wolfert is connected to the Couwenhoven by Hoogland. It is at the same time possible that he was also linked to the Couwenhoven near Woudenberg because he was a son of Gerrit Willemsz van Couwenhoven, but documentation for this has not been discovered. On November 5, 1622. Beermt van Munster made a deposition under oath before the lieutenant, the schout, and the schepenen Dam and Bronchorst at the request of the (police) officer. He stated that the previous Saturday afternoon he had caught a bucket of fish by the Coppelpoort bridge and had given half of it to Wulphert the bleacher according to an agreement which they had made, and that Beernt had caught a small number of fish threafter. Wulpher and Harmen Teut then took these fish from Beernt, and they would not divide them with him. Wulpher took the net and tried to give it to his wife. Harman hit Beernt in the eye with a weight in the net, but by then, it was ripped. Beernt then went to the defense of his wife, and Wulpher drew his knife and threatened him without harming him. Dirck Gerritsz, stevedore, using well-chosen words, separated the people from each other. On April 1 1623, Dirch Gerrisz was heard at the request of the officer and made a similar deposition under oath. On March 24, 1623. Hubert Moll and his wife Geertgen Cornelis sold a bleach camp to Wulpher Gerritsz bleacher and his wife in which they had been residing. This was situated in Amersfoort outside the Coppelpoort. The property description differs slightly from that given for the land transaction of 1618, but the mortgages are the same. It is likely that this is the same ground that Wulpher Gerritsz and Hubert Moll purchased then. On the date of purchase in 1623, Wulpher Gerritss sold this property to Monsieur Jacques Chiese Cuirass(ier) of the company of his Princely Excellency (Maurits?) and the purchser assumed the mortgages. This is the last document pertaining to Wolfert Gerritse that has been discovered in the archives of Amersfoort. On June 11, 1623. Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven was a baker and then later a bleacher (bleaching laundry on a grassfield in the sun) before 1624. Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven immigrated between 1624 and 1625 to New Amsterdam, New York County, New York. Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven and Neeltgen Jacobsdochter There exists a letter from Kiiaen van Rensselaer to Wolfert which I have to get from sources. At this time Wolfert was in the Netherlands and the letter had to do with terminating Wolfert's contract with van Rensselaer and mentions that Wolferts wife was unhappy living in New Netherlands. In the letter van Rensselaer states he would not want someone who was not happy working for him to remain in his employ under the circumstances. It was a friendly letter. According to the source there are several letters fo Wolfert from Van Rensselaer. The letter above was read over the phone to me and I have yet to recieve the exact copy and don't take short hand in 1632. Wolphert Gerretse Van Kouwenhoven "Keskateuw" located on Long Island from the Indians. Here was established the first kown white settlement on Long Island. Wolphert called his "plantation" Achterveldt, shown on the Manatu Map of New Netherlands as farm No. 36 near the Indian long house to the Kestachau tribe. Wolphert's house surrounded by palisades, was the focal pont of the village of New Amersfoort, later called Flatlands. On June 30, 1636. He got "Smal Civil Rights" on April 18, 1657. Wolfert Gerritsen Van Couwenhoven was named in a suit filed by Frans Jansen regardin a dispute over a contract in which Jansen was to buy land from Wolfert. This was the first time the name Van Couwenhoven was mentioned in reference to Wolfert on October 20, 1661. | Van Kouwenhoven, Wolphert Gerretse (I4913)

1810 | The funeral of the late Alfred T. Rumsey this afternoon at Union Presbyterian Church was largely attended. Rev. E.E. Savage, present pastor; and Revs. Charles C. Hall and Wendell Prime, former pastors of Union Church wew present, and each of the clergymen made an address, expressing their regard for the veteran sexton and sympathizing with the stricken family. Appropriate hymns were sung by a large chorus choir led by Mr. Teller. The pallbearers were ex-Major McCorkens, Captain Charles N. Decker, J.H.H. Chapman, James Weygant and E.B. Anderson and Peter H. Traphagan, two of the oldest carmen in the city. | Rumsey, Alfred Tice (I5513)

1811 | The home of Jonathan seems to have been at or near Brownsville, Washington Co., PA. Jonathan Jennings emigrated from Washington Co., PA to Washington Co., OH in 1801. With this family and household goods he traveled to Wheeling, WV, in wagons, and from that point floated down the river on a flat-boat. He intended to settle on the Big Muskingum River, but on arriving at the mouth of the Little Muskingum, about dusk, the water was so high that it misled them and they entered that river by mistake. This was on the evening of March 6, 1801. The point at which they landed is where Lafaver's mill now stands. After exploring a while, Jonathan decided that he had no need to go gurther; the climate seemed all that could be desired; the peach tree were in bloom, the grass green and the prospect most inviting to the weary family. The trip down the river had been a hazardous one, and to the parents burdened with the care of five children, the eldest of whom was but eight years of age, and the youngest, Junia, but an infant, it had seemed long and wearisome, and the adjacent country being filled with hostile Indians, their voyage was extremely perilous. So it was that on the morning of March 7, 1801, the family looked with most pleasurable anticipations over the beautiful country which was to become their home. Jonathan built his cabin on what is now known as the Henry Jennings farm; there they lived and prospered and four children were born to them at this place. | Jennings, Jonathan (I47)

1812 | The large monument to the Earl of Middlesex and his second wife, erected in the middle of St. Benedict's chapel in 1645, has removed all trace of Spottiswood's grave. Two copies of an inscription, however, seemingly from Spottiswood's coffin have been recorded. The first, which appears in a manuscript owned by the late Lord Mostyn and now preserved in the Library of Westminster Abbey (MS 44) reads as follows: Depositum Johannis Spottiswoode D.D. Sanct. andrea Archiep: Scotiae Primatis et Cancellarij XX. annos Presbyter XI. annos Glasaven Archiep: XXV. annos Sanct. Andreae Archiep: IV annos Regni Cancellarius Ex hac vita feliciter migravit Londini vii Cal. xbris Anno xpi. M.DC.XXXIX, Annoq Regis Caroli XV. Vixit annos LXXiiij: Mens: ii dyes xvij.

The first part of the inscription may be translated thus: Here lies John Spottiswood, Doctor of Divinity, Archbishop of St Andrews, Primate and Chancellor of Scotland, Twenty years a priest, eleven years Archbishop of Glasgow, twenty-five years Archbishop of St Andrews, four years Chancellor of the kingdom. He departed happily this life at London on 25 November in the year of Christ 1639 in the 15th year of King Charles. He lived 74 years, 2 months and 17 days. The elaborate Latin poem which follows praises Spottiswood's defence of the church. The inscription recorded in the Mostyn Hall manuscript differs in various ways from the version recorded in Brian Duppa's life of Spottiswood: MEMORIAE SACRUM.DOMINUS JOANNES SPOTISWOOD, ECCLESIAE SANCTI ANDREAE ARCHIEPISCOPUS, SCOTIAE PRIMAS ET REGNI CANCELLARIUS VIGINTI ANNOS PRESBYTER, UNDECEM ANNOS ARCHIEPISCOPUS GLASGOENSIS, VIGINTI QUINQUE ANNOS S.ANDREAE, ET PER QUATUOR ANNOS REGNI SCOTIAE CANCELLARIUS EX HAC VITA IN PACE MIGRAVIT ANNO DOMINI 1639.

|
1817 | The town of Chester was formed 22 Mar 1845 from parts of Goshen, Warwick, Blooming Grove and Monroe. The older children of Royal S. Rumsey were born in Monroe, where his father had left him some land in his will of 1816. But in 1829, his uncle, David Rumsey, left him his farm in Warwick, in that section which later became part of Chester, as well as his colored boy James Marvin, who, if he "serve my nephew Royal Rumsey until the age of 21", he should be paid $50 and given a good usit of clothes. Royal's wife Susannah died the following year, and was buried on the farm which David Rumsey had left to Royal in 1829. Mrs. Earl Predmore said there was no stone next to hers for Royal, who died three years later. He was a member of the Sugar Loaf Methodist Church in 1858. Royal S. Rumsey wrote his will 13 Sep 1859, five days before he died, and it was probated 1 Nov 1859. He left all his land to his three sons: Sylvester S., Dubois B. and Thomas J. Rumsey, subject to their making the following payments. His son Milton L. Rumsey was to receive $1,000 in one year, son Henry C. Rumsey $100 [only] in one year, son James B.S. $900 in three years, daughters Elizabeth, Annie E. and Phebe V. Rumsey $1,000 each in four years. The three daughters were to have a home where he now lived until they married. William E. and Nelson D. Rumsey could keep all the property they have had of me, but shall have no more. Grandsons Oliver and Charles Rumsey, two sons of Charles P., were to have $150 each, the interest on which was to be paid to son Charles P. during his lifetime. He named as executors his son William E. Rumsey and his friend Minard Sutton. Witnesses were D. W. Stevens and John E. Stevens of Chester. | Rumsey, Royal S. (I5096)
|
1818 | The venerable Justice C. M. Campbell, whose severe illness we have heretofore alluded to, died yesterday afternoon at his residence. He was seventy-nine years of age, and during a long residence enjoyed the respect and esteem of a large circle of friends. For many years he had held the office of Justice of the Peace, discharging his official duties faithfully. He leaves a wife and grown-up family. The hour for the funeral is hereafter to be determined upon. | Campbell, Charles Muir (I4883)
|
1819 | The Webster family moved to Ontario, Canada in Jun 1835, to Kalamazoo Co., Michigan in 1846 and finally to Chicago, Illinois in 1853. | Webster, John H. (I6942)

1822 | Theophilus Corwin was buried on the east side of the Mattituck Cemetery, beneath a small blue-stone slab which was still there in 1871. | Corwin, Theophilus (I5228)
|
1823 | There is much reason to believe that "seven brothers" listed were closely related and of a recent common ancestor, but it is possible that this relationship as between some of them was not nearer than that of cousins; that is to say, the "seven brothers" were the sons of the son or sons of the ancestor who is said to have been one of the "Old Calledonia's" passengers. | Jennings, Benjamin B. (I989)
|
1824 | There is no actual proof for this marriage, only Tuthill family history. JME states that they were never actually married. | Tuthill, [Unknown] (I9479)
|
1825 | There is no actual proof that Harriet married Claudius, only Hulse family history. It is said that she is the mother of Samual Smith who married Mary (Mapes) Braffit. | Hulse, Harriet (I5337)
|
1826 | There is some confusion as to the place of Jacob's death and burial; it may be that he died in Lexington, OK in 1923 and is buried in Moore, OK. | Rutledge, Jacob Owen (I1224)
|
1827 | There was an Isaac Lomeraux in the 1790 census of New Cornwall, the household consisting of 1 male over 15, 3 males under 16, and 3 females. There is no proof that this Isaac, or those listed below, was the husband of Phebe. In 1800, In Cheescocks (which had been formed from New Cornwall), there was an Isaac L'Amoreux with a household of 2 males and 1 female 10-15, 1 male and 1 female 16-25, 1 male and 1 female 45 or over. There was also a younger Isaac L'Amoreux on another page who had 2 males and 2 females under 10, 1 male 10-15, 1 male 16-25, 1 male and 1 female 26-44. Perhaps this was a son of Isaac and Phebe. In 1810, the only Isaac Lamereaux of Monroe had 2 males and 1 female under 10, 2 males and 2 females 10-15, with the parents in the 26-44 brackets. In 1820 in Monroe (formerly Cheescocks), Isaac Lumerex and his wife, both over 45, had a family of 1 male and 1 female under 10, 2 males and 1 female 10-15, 1 male 16-18 and one 19-25, 1 female 16-25 and 1 female 26-44. In 1830, when Isaac Lamourex was in his 60s and had no wife, he had with him 1 male 10-14, 1 female 15-19, and 2 females 20-29. | Lamereaux, Isaac (I4941)
|
1828 | There was no "Rumsey Rose" indexed in early New York census lists, but there was a Simon Rose in New Paltz, Ulster Co., in 1810, with 2 males and 3 females under 10, 2 females 16-25, and 1 male 26-44. In 1820, Simon Rose of New Paltz had a household of 2 males and 3 females under 10, 2 females 10-15, 1 male 16-19, 1 female 26-44, and 1 male 45 or over. In 1830 in New Paltz there was a Simon S. Rose. There was 1 male 10-14 with 1 male and 1 female 20-29. | Rose, Rumsey (I5379)

1832 | This day, date underwritten, before me Cornelis Van Tienhoven, secretary, in the presence of the undersigned witnesses, appeared Wolphert Gerritsen and Gerrit Wolphertsen, as guardians of Lambert Cornelissen Cool, and at the request of said Lambert Cool, have permitted him to go with his cattle to his brother-in-law Claes Jansen, in order to take up together some plantation or farm, and we the principals in the capacity aforesaid have consented hereto as we are bound in the place of father and mother to promote the above named Lambert Cool's interest and we cannot perceive that he will earn anything, much less prosper so long as he remains with his father, Cornelis Lambertsen. We have therefore considered it advisable to permit him to do something for himself in company aforesaid. Done at Fort Amsterdam the 22 of August 1639. This is the mark x of Wolphert Gerritsen This is the mark x of Gerrit Wolphertsen Maurits Jan and Frerick Lubbertsen ; witnesses "Consent of the guardians of Lambert Cornelissen Cool to let Cool remove his cattle and take up a farm with his brother-in-law Claes Jansen" "Copied with slight variations from E.B. O'Callaghan's manuscript translation of the original in the New York Colonial MSS., Vol. I, p. 155, which was destroyed in the Capitol fire of March 29, 1911, Albany, October 4, 1933 ; signed A.J.F. van Laer." On August 22, 1639. On March 11, 1647, Gerrit Wolphertson (Van Kouwenhoven) received a patent for "a certain piece of land, gouat the (Ma) Rechawieck, both the maize and woodland, on the marsh of the Gouwanus Kil, between the land of Jacob Stoffelsen and Frederick Lubbertsen, extending from the aforsaid marsh till into the woods, till to the land of said Frederick, till to the land of Andries Huddle, northeast by north, a little northerly, 148 rods: behind through the woods, till to the land of the aforesaid Jacob Stoffelsen, southeast by east 80 rods next to the land of Jacob Stoffelsen aforesaid, till to the aforsaid marsh, southwest a little westerly 165 rods, along the marsh to the place of beginning 60 rods, with an oblique outpoint: amounting in all to 29 morgens, 341 rods." Pattents, GG, 172. This plot evidently fronted on the main road leading from Flatbush, through the village of Breuckelen, which was located at this point, to "the Ferry," andis inchluded in lands marked as G. Martense's on Butt's map. Wolphertsen sold this property to Nicholas Jans, baker, of New York. On March 11, 1647. | Van Kouwenhoven, Gerret Wolfersen (I4907)

1837 | This family is listed on the June 6, 1841 census of the small Parish village of North Tamerton, Cornwall County, England. Registration District is Holsworthy. They were farmers.
