Dear Phyllis, Splendid! In "Genealogies of Long Island Families" Volume I, pages 432-438, on page 433 in an article titled, "The Family of Charles Fonteyn", we learn that Annetie Fonteyn was the daughter of Charel Fonteyn and Catherine de Baile. Annetje was bap. 16 July 1662 in Brooklyn. She first married Jacob Janszen on 9 Sep 1685 in New York; this couple had 2 children. Annetje then married 2) at Flatbush on 21 August 1694 Mauritz Covert. Sarah Covert was the 4th and youngest child of Mauritz and Annetje. She was baptized on 26 Dec 1697 at Brooklyn. I would say that a very strong case can be made that this Pieter Lott's was was, indeed, Sarah Covert.

Hi Dorothy, Just wanted to mention some sources that refer to Mauritsz Covert and Annetje Fonteyn: 1) Phyllis J. Miller, "Jannetje Teunis Nyssen and Jannetje Teunis Coevert," NYGBR 119:6, shows Mauritsz Covert and Annetje Fonteyn were married in 1690. 2) David McQueen, "Kings County, N.Y. Wills," NYGBR 47:119 (note). In the will of Charles Ffonteyn of Boswyck and Katrina Baaly wife, dated 1 Aug. 1687: "Charles Fontaine was of Bushwyck, 1661.He married Katrina De Bailie. Issue: ...Annetje, bap. July 16, 1662; m., first, Sep. 9, 1685, Jacob Jansen, m., second, April 1, 1690, Mauritz Coverts, and third, Francis Titus..." 3) Andrew J. Provost, "Early Settlers of Bushwick," (1949), 3:62, also shows the 1 April 1690 date for Annetje's second marriage; and mentions her third marriage to Francis Titus, son of Titus Siraks de Vries and Jannetje Teunis Covert, "by which marriage they had no issue." 4) In "Kings County, N.Y. Wills," NYGBR 47:167-168: The will of Jacob Jansen, Annetje's first husband, dated 23 March 1689 (recorded Liber 1 of Conveyances, p. 84 and an Inventory dated April 1690, p. 94, would confirm he died in 1690 and points to the probablity of a 1690 date for Annetje's second marriage. I love this stuff. Regards, Larry Voreis > Dear Phyllis, Splendid!
