Hi Liz, et al, I don't have much, so for what its worth. The two baptismal records at New Utrecht for Willem Bennet & Antje h.v. are: [NYG&B Record 112(1981):211] "Records of the Reformed Dutch Church of New Utrecht, Long Island, NY" 1732, 30 Jan, Jacob, of Wm. & Anna BENNET wit: Jacob Bennet, Angenietie Bennet, his daughter [NYG&B Record 113(1982):13] "Records of the Reformed Dutch Church of New Utrecht, Long Island, NY" 1735, 4 May, Neltje, of Wm. & Anatie BENNET wit: Peter Meserol, Sara s.v. Unfortunately, not much to go on. I have no firm birth and/or baptismal dates for the other children. Here's the will abstract you asked about: Abstracts of Wills Vol V 1754-1760, New York, page 336: Liber 21 Page 400.--In the name of God, Amen, December 21, 1755. I, WILHELMUS BENNIT, of Brookland, in Kings County, farmer, being very sick. It is my will that my wife Antie and my two sons Jacob and Johanes shall stay in my house for 10 years to bring up my younger children, but they have power to sell if they find it necessary. I leave all estate to my wife and children, Jacob, Johanes, Wilhelmus, Anthony, Rachel, Angeltie, Catharine, Abraham, and Margaretie, "But my son Jacob must have £10 for his birth right." Witnesses, Jacob Butt, Jacob Stillingworth, Simon Boerum. Proved, September 12, 1759. Abstracts of Wills, Vol XVI, Corrections Vol I p 336 Will of Wilhelmus Bennit read Wilhelmus Bennet. 7 lines from top for Antie read Anatie Bennet. 12 lines from top for Angeltie and Catharine read Angenietie and Cornelis Bennet. 14 lines from top for Jacob Butt and Jacob Stillingworth read Jacob Bennet and Jacob Stillingwort. That's it for now. Best regards, Pam Sears
