Hello all, I descend from Caterina (also spelled Catherina) Ecker/Ekker/Eckersen who married (1) Niclaes (Nicholas) Abramse De Vouw and (2) Abraham Blauvelt. Someone said that Caterina was the daughter of Jan Ecker (from Van Midwout) and Magdaleentje Vonk/Vonck who was born in Zuythampton (Southampton), Suffolk, New York. And that Caterina had two sisters Chrestina and Magdalentje. Jan was supposedly the son of Steven Ecker and Magdaleentje the daughter of Cornelius Vonk and Magdalena Van Dyck or Hendricks. Does anyone else have the source for this information? Caterina was born in Phillipsburg (Tarrytown??), Westchester County, NY in about 1694. Is there a baptism record for her? Jan Ecker/Eckersen was often a witness of baptism for Caterina's children from her marriage to Abraham Blauvelt. But there were several Jan Ecker/Eckersen's living in that area in that time period. Caterina had Abraham, Daniel and Nickolas from the first marriage and she had Sara, Abraham and Rachel from the second marriage. Were there more children? Thank you. Sincerely, Jason Coffman
