Most of the compiled genealogies that I've found so far identify Maria as the daughter of Joachem Gulick and Gertie Jans. One lists her as the daughter of Hendrick Gulick and Catherine Amerman. According to Arthur C. Quick's book, 'History of the Quick Family in America' (1942), Maria was "a granddaughter of Joakim Gulick, who came to America in 1653, settled first at Gravesend, Long Island. He took the oath of Allegiance in 1687. Previous to 1717 he moved to Six-Mile-Run, Somerset Co., where he owned 330 acres lying on both sides of the Ten-Mile-Run brook. He had 2 sons, John and Peter Gulick, but it is not known which was the father of Maria."(p.38) A.C. Quick's description seems to match most accounts of Joakim/Joachem who was the son of Hendrick Van Gulick. From the contributed family trees at Rootsweb & Family Tree Maker site, I've discovered that Jochem Gulick (1649-1711) had 12 children; of these, Hendrick, Teunis, Jochem & Pieter each had a daughter named Maria... I'm a descendant of the Maria Gulick who married Petrus Quick, through their son, Tunis who m. Magdalena. Thank you to anyone who can steer me towards more concrete data. -Alissa
