David Kipp Conover in his website at http://www.conovergenealogy.com/conover-p/p1442.htm#i17886id gives the death date of Anneke Jans as 19 March 1663. 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?

Hello Paul, According to: "The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Vol 104, Number 2, pages 69-70, written by George Olin Zabriskie, F. A. S. C., titled: "Anneke Jans in Fact and Fiction", dated April 1973, this author states the Will was recorded January 29, 1663 (new Style), and on Feb. 23 1663, her son Jan Roelofsen paid for the use of the burial pall. The author says from that information, we can assume she was buried on that day or shortly prior. Best regards, Lilly Martin. Researching the descendants of Adam Brouwer b. 1620, who arrived in Manhattan in 1642. One of his sons married the grandaughter of Anneke Jans. Adam's own marriage was performed by Anneke's second husband, and Anneke was a witness to it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paul Underwood" <paul_u@hotmail.com> To: <DUTCH-COLONIES@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, March 18, 2007 12:36 PM Subject: [DUTCH-COLONIES] Anneke Jans > David Kipp Conover in his website at > http://www.conovergenealogy.com/conover-p/p1442.htm#i17886id > gives the death date of Anneke Jans as 19 March 1663. > > 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 can't both be right! > > Paul Underwood > > _________________________________________________________________ > Txt a lot?
