My Mom got this info. from a Nellie Rowe. > and Mabel Rowe, Helen Helen: There are several Jehoiakim BURGHARDTs/BURGETTs of various generations in my current database!! What does the 1802 date signify--birth, marriage, death; and what additional information does your mother have about him? Yes, my ancestor, Jehoiakim6 BURGHARDT, and a Hendrick BURGHARDT were listed as Heads of Household in the 1790 Federal Census for Kortright, Montgomery Co., NY and the 1800 Federal Census for Kortright, Delaware Co., NY [the county structure had changed between 1790 and 1800]. My Jehoiakim6 had a brother named Hendrick, and I believe that the above were brothers. I could not find Hendrick after the 1800 census. He either migrated elsewhere or died after that census. There were BURGHARDTs to the west in Lisle, Broome Co., NY afterward; but I have not researched them yet. The name, Jehoiakim, came down through the VAN VALKENBURG family. The parents of my Jehoiakim were Conrad5 BURGHARDT and Judith VAN VALKENBURG; and the paternal grandparents were Hendrick4 BURGHARDT and Eve VAN VALKENBURG. Judith and Eve were cousins.
