Sarah Dorland was the daughter of Gerrit Dorland and Jannetje Probasco and this family was a completely separate and different branch of the Dorland family than Lambert Dorland and his son Gerret Lamberts. The descend from The Family of Gerrit (possibly Janzsen) Dorland, the father of Jan Gerrits Dorland. Barbara Barth wrote The Dorland Engima Solved to resolved these confused family lines. The father of Gerrit Dorland b. about 1698, was Gerret Dorland and his wife Jannetje Schenck, both who had originally been assigned by Cremer to the line of the Lambert Dorland, but evidence proved this to be in error. The errors that Cremer made, in part due to the time period and information available, has been corrected and cited by Barbara Barth. You will find this information in the Dorland Enigma Solved on pp. 3-21 and then the correct son of Lambert Janse Dorland, Gerret Lamberts Dorland on pages 165-. Jannetje Probasco b. abt. 1706, named in the will of her father John Probasco, died before 1773, the date of her husband Gerret's will. Her mother Arientie Rieniers Arendsz Van Hengelen was the sister of Auke Reiniers, the father in law of Gerrits brother John.

Cremer states that Gerret was the son of John (or Jan) Dorlandt, baptized 20 Mar 1681 in Brooklyn and his wife Marretje. Cremer identifies this John Dorlandt as the son of Jan Gerretse Dorlandt, the immigrant and his second wife, Anna Remsen. However, he states in a footnote (p. 170) that there were several Jan Dorlandts and that: âThe facts here set forth and the interpretations given to them are therefore presented with some misgivings.â I am wondering if the recently published âThe Dorland Enigma Solvedâ sheds any additional light on this Dorlandt line. Janâs wife Marretje, I suppose, is not to be confused with another Marrytje (UNKNOWN) who was married to Gerret Lamberts Dorlandt. Also is there any information on the identity of Gerretâs wife, Jane? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
