Hello group, I hope someone familiar with Beckers can help me identify the two wives of John Harder (1801 – 1861, son of George & Eunice Squire) of Claverack, Gertrude Maria Becker and Margaret Becker. John first married Gertrude Maria Becker (1806 - 1838) at Kinderhook Ref. Ch. 11 Feb 1826. They had 6 children: Margaret Maria 1827, Eunice Amanda 1829, Allen 1830, George Latten 1832, Maria 1834, and Tunis Becker 1836. John second married Margaret Becker (1792 - 1868) at Ghent 30 Nov 1839. They had no children. Margaret was the widow of William Ten Broeck (1792-1836, s/o Samuel J. & Christyntje), married at Claverack Ref. Ch. 28 Nov 1813. They had 7 shildren: Davis Samuel 1814, Walter Van Rensselaer 1817, Peter Van Rensselaer 1817, Jacob Lawrence 1819, William Ambrose 1823, Cornelia Christina 1824, and Jeremiah 1825. The name of John & Gertrude’s son Tunis Becker is a clue and she may be a daughter of Tunis Becker & Elizabeth Best, but no record. Margaret isn’t their daughter because they married in 1797 and had another daughter Margaret/Gritje. This Harder family (not related to the 1710 Palatine group) had a close relationship with Antonius Becker & Anna Eva Dick a couple of generations earlier, but I don’t know if/how they relate to Gertrude and Margaret. Thanks for any info, Jim Harder
