Dear Phyllis, Is there an abstract of this Pieter Lott's will? Does Mr. Phillips list the children and birth order of Pieter Lott and his wife, Sarah [Coverts ????]? If the couple followed traditonal naming patterns, we might be able to make some kind of a case as to Sarah's birth family. Dorothy >A.V. Phillips in The Lott Family in America p.18-19 gives only the name >Sarah for Peter's wife. However there is a footnote --n9. Pieter Lott, had a >sister Dorothy, who married William Remsen, named in her father's >will. So that >Sarah, was probably a Remsen, sister of Rem, named "brother-in-law" in >Pieter's will. > >However, that unusual name Mourice, is certainly suggestive of the Coeverts. >Phyllis > > > >************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com. > >------------------------------- >To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >DUTCH-COLONIES-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' >without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
