Hi researchers, I am looking for the ancestors of Johannes Jr. and Elizabeth GOEWEY (details below) and would like very much to contact other GOEWEY or JONES descendants in order to compare and share research. They are my 3rd great grandparents. Thank you in advance, Jan Jordan Northern Vermont researching GOEWEY, JONES, OSTRANDER, LEWIS, SHARP(E) Johannes GOEWEY Jr. was born 26 January 1766 in New York, baptised 2 February 1776 at Reform Dutch Church, Albany, NY, son of Barent GOEWEY and Rachel OSTRANDER. Johannes married Elizabeth JONES; witnesses were Johannes and Geertruy GOEWEY. I have no other data for Elizabeth JOHNSON. Do you? The 1850 Greenbush, Rensselaer Co., NY, census states they were farming, property value $10,000.00 and lived next door to my 3rd great grandparents, George and Charlotte SHARP(E). Johannes and Elizabeth's son, my ancestor, William Jonathan GOEWEY, was born 18 Feb. 1828/29 in NY, married Eudora Alida LEWIS on 16 Oct. 1853, and died 5 April 1899.
