Bill Bogardus transcribes her will as dated 29 Janaury 1663, as follows: "Will of Anneke Jans Bogardus ---In the name of the Lord, Amen. Know all men by these presents, that this day, the 29th of January 1663, in the afternoon, about four o'clock, appeared before me, Derrick Van Schelluyne, notary public, in the presence of the witnesses hereafter mentioned, Anneke Janse, widow of Roeloff Janse, of Master Land, and now lastly widow of Reverend Everhardus Bogardus, residing in the village of Beverwyck, and well known to us, notary and witnesses; . . ." As to her death and burial date, he isn't precise but rather says: "Anneke Jans died in Beverwyck (now Albany, New York) and although in this book and others her date of death is recorded as February 23, 1663, this is actually the date when her son, Jan Roelofszen, then 30 years old paid the church for the rental of a burial pall. She may have died a day (or days) earlier and perhaps even buried a day or more after February 23rd, but this is the closest date known regarding her death." Barbara L. de Mare, Esq.

Possibly the Bogardus date should be February 23 1663/64 but New Netherland didn't use the dual date calendar dates until after the Bristish takeover. I'd try to research what Mr Bogardus source is on her burial. Sorry for my earlier post.

William Bogardus in his website at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ghosthunter/Anneke/image003.gif gives a burial date of 23 Feb 1663. Both dates seem very precise, but they cant both be right! Paul Underwood _________________________________________________________________ Txt a lot?
