Should have given a time frame for the previous information. The 2nd generation, the "patentee" generation was having children between 1688 and 1734. The youngest son of the (assumed) immigrant ancestor, Jan Pieterse Haring - his name was Abraham and his wife was Dircktie Taelman - had their 13th child in 1734 when Dircktie was fully 47. And they went on to live to the ages of 90 (him) and 81 (her). The third generation was having children between 1711 and 1775. This last was Rachel, next-to-youngest daughter of the Abraham mentioned above - she was 43 when her 11th was born. The fourth generation was having children between 1738 and 1806.
