Does anyone have the complete article by Carolyn Nash titled "Magdalena Hendricks, Wife of Cornelis Vonk/Vonck, and Her Mother, Catharina Cronenberg, Wife of Jan Teunissen Dam" that was published in the The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record last year? Catharina Cronenberg is my direct maternal ancestor so I'm curious about the sources for her newly discovered surname. Thank you, Jason N. Gervase gervasius@gmail.com
Hi Jason, Nash cites a 1679 deed at Flatbush from Ruthgert Albertsz to "the worthy Catharina Cronenborgh, wife of Jan Theunisz" as the primary document source of the name Cronenberg. She also mentions that "Tryntien Croonenberg, wife of Jan Theunissen" was interrogated at New Amstel on 22 November 1659 (O'Callaghan DRCHSNY 2:103-4). She provides some context to these records, but notes "there were two contemporary Catharina Cronenbergs in New York and several Jan Teunissens (at least three married to a Catharina)".
