Robert Oldson was born circa December 1859 at Maryland, USA; Aged 40 in 1900 census.1 He married Mary Florence Cornelius circa 1890
; Married 10 years in 1900 census.1
Robert Oldson was listed as a resident in James F. Gleaves Esq and Mary E. Armstrong's household in the census report on 1 June 1870 at Districts 1 and 2, Queen Anne's Co., Maryland, USA;
James Gleaves in the 1870 United States Federal Census
p. 358-A, lines 8-14, dwelling 1058, family 1057
Mary E. GLEAVES may be either a younger stepsister of James or a niece by one of his brothers. Robert OLDSON is unidentified.
NB: Robert OLDSON appears in GLEAVES households in later censuses identified as a "newphew" of James and his siblings. I have not yet identified the family connection. I believe he is the Robert, son of William OLDSON and Elizabeth ARMSTRONG shown in a 1931 death certificate, and who married Florence CORNELIUS. His mother, Elizabeth (ARMSTRONG) OLDSON, was the sister of William GLEAVES's wife, Mary E. (ARMSTRONG) GLEAVES. The two BOWENs are Martha Ann (FRISBY) BOWEN (James' sister) and her son, W. H.

The following information on Dr. George Hack is quoted from the research of Mrs. Henrietta Dawson Ayres Sheppard (1871-1960) of Hanover, Pennsylvania in her book "Ayres-Dawson and Allied Families," abstracted in "Colonial and Revolutionary Lineages of America":
THE HACK FAMILY
Many people have written and published articles on the Hacks of Cologne, but we have only adhered to those descended in a straight line from George Hack, "Mr." and "Dr.", son of Severin Hack and Katharina (Varlet) Hack, his wife, to "Fairview," Accomack Co., Va.,
The Hack family of Cologne, Germany, appears to have been very ancient according to the following records ("Kolnische Geschlechter," by Fahne, page 52) [records not quoted here]
THE HACK FAMILY OF AMERICA
Among the influential German families who eventually settled on the Eastern Shore of Virginia was Mr. (also called Dr.) George Hack, "a High German, both by parents and birth, born in ye Citty of Cologne, under the Palatinate thereof" is so recorded on March 28, 1653, in Vol. 4, p. 170, Clerk's Office, Eastville, Northampton Co., Va. He was baptized in Cologne, Germany, in the Dutch-Reformed Church on March 20, 1620, as a son of Severin Hack and his lawful wife, Katharina Varlet, whose wedding was celebrated in the same Church on January 30, 1618. The father of Severin Hack was Joris (George) Hack of Cologne, Germany, and the father of his wife, Katharina (Ann Katherine), was Nikolaus Varlet. Sponsors for George Hack, baptized in 1620, were Philipp Hack, acting for Jacques (Jakob) Hack, and Gertrud Hack, the widow Dens, who were probably brother and sister of Severin. Philipp Hack is especially noted as born in Cologne.
The above items were found, after a long search, by Dr. Friedrich Wecken of Oetzsch bei Leipzig Germany, who first investigated the church records of the French Reformed Church, because there, in view of the family names, "Hack" and "Varlet," seemed to be a promise of success. Also, a search was made in the records of the Protestant and the German Reformed Churches, without success, and finally the Dutch Reformed books furnished the information.
The Hack Coat of Arms, differing from the ancient description in the above, but having three hooks or scythes for a crest, are engraved on a locket dated 1646, which descended to the last Peter Hack of "Fairview," containing the fine Miniatures of Joris Hack and his son G.N. Hack. Under the Coat of Arms are the words: "Joris Hack Ao 1646". The back of the locket contains the Coat of Arms and the front, "G.N.H." This locket marks the date of their arrival in New Amsterdam (now New York).
After the arrival of Mr. (Dr.) George Hack in "New Netherland"--Amsterdam (now New York), he stayed there and at "Fort Good Hope" (now Hartford, Connecticut) about five years. The first record of him living in Northampton County, Va. is in 1651.
On February 10th of that year, he bought cattle from John Johnson [Clerk's Office, Eastville, Northampton Co., Va, Vol. 4, p. 120]. On April 6, 1659, he made a deposition that "he was then aged about 36 years", which would make his birth date 1623 instead of 1620 as proven, but this is not an uncommon occurrence in these early depositions even though they were made by the individual. [Clerk's Office, Eastville, Northampton Co., Va., Vol. 8, p. 48].
Mr. (Dr.) George Hack, married in Amsterdam, Anna Varlett (Varlet-Verlett-Varleth), born in Amsterdam, Holland, the daughter of Caspar Varlet and his wife Judith. Anna was a sister of Jannetje (Jane) Varlett, who became the wife of Augustine Herman, Lord of Bohemia Manor in Maryland. SEE VARLETT MANUSCRIPT.
["Archives of Maryland," Vol. I, p. 462]:
"Assembly Proceedings, Sept.-Oct. 1663...
"Then was read the pet'n of Augustine Herman for an Act of Naturalization for himselfe Children and his brother in Lawe George Hack.
"Ordered likewise that an Acte of Naturalization be prepared for Augustine Herman, and his Children and his brother in Lawe George Hack and his wife and Children."
This statement of George Hack being a brother-in-law of Augustine Herman is proven and shown by their having married the Varlet sisters, Anna and Jannetje (Jane), who carried Varlet names through their children, preserving, as was the custom, the names of their forebears. One genealogist mislead the compiler by introducing the Herman line into the straight Hack line, saying that a George Nicholas Hack married Anne Leisler Herman, and she continued under that misapprehension for several years until the error was discovered and the matter cleared up.
n Vol. 4, p. 113, Clerk's Office, Eastville, Northampton Co., Va., it is stated "Mrs. Anna Varlett, Ye wife of Mr. George Hacke, dwelling in Virginia" bought a Pinnace named "ye ffortune" "being at Anchor heare", meaning Amsterdam, New Netherlands (New York). In O'Callahan's "Dutch Manuscripts," page 129, Oct. 7, 1652 "Anna Verlett wife of George Hack" is mentioned in connection with cattle sent to Virginia by Augustyn Herman, etc. Dr. George Hack had a brother Severin (Sepherin) Hack, whose name was included among those for whom he received land in Virginia. Severin was killed by the Indians before Sept. 19, 1661, as on that date Philip Calvert, Esq., Governor of Maryland, with his Council, had Pinna, King of the Pickhattomitta Indians in Delaware Bay, to come before the Council, and Gov. Calvert made peace with him, conditional upon his delivery of the Indians who had killed John Norden and Severin (Sepherin) Hack. [Ref. "Archives of Maryland", Vol. III, pp. 414-432].
Dr. George Hack was called a Dutchman of some consequence and lived on and near the Sassafras River, called "Ann Katharine's Neck" in Cecil Co., Md., which he sold to Abraham Morgan in 1660. [Mrs. Sheppard quoted the transaction and beneath that additional transactions for George Hack in Northampton County, which are omitted herein due to space limitations].
Although Dr. George Hack is recorded in the Northampton Records on March 28, 1653, already quoted, as a high German, born in Cologne, on March the 10th, 1658, at the grand Assembly held at Jamestown, he was naturalized as a Dutchman, as shown in the following: [record omitted here].
That Dr. George Hack was a man of wealth is proven by the many Patents for land granted him in Virginia for bringing in settlers at his own expense.
The following three grants, aggregating 2,400 acres, are interesting facsimiles of his original grants:
[Virginia Land Office, Richmond, Va., "Patent Book No. 3," page 127]:
"To all &c., Whereas &c., Now Know yee that I the said Richard Bennett, Esq., &c., give and grant unto Dr. George Hack one thousand Acres of Land Situate in the County of Northampton Nine hundred Acres whereof at Pungoteague Creek beginning at a little branch on the South Side of the said Creeke thence Extending westerly down the Said Creeke bounded on the Easterne parts by the Little branch or first bounder on the Land of Sampson Robins on the Northerne by the Maine Creeke on the westerne by the bay and runing Southerly into the woods towards Nondin Creeke one hundred Acres the remainder being two Small Islands Seated near the North point of Pongotegue Creeke Environed with water and Marsh ground Containing the said quantity of Land. The said Land being due unto the said Dr. Hack by and for the transportation of twenty persons into this Colony to have and to hold &c., Yeilding and paying &c., which payment, &c., provided &c., Dated the 12th of October 1652.

[Beneath this Mrs. Sheppard quoted two other patents for land in the same general area, which I have omitted].
Dr. George Hack removed to Maryland in the year 1658, and took with him a number of those who had gone to Virginia with him.
From Cecilius, 2nd Lord Baltimore, and First Proprietary of Maryland, he received grants for nearly 2,000 acres of land, the Patents for which follow: records omitted--These records in the Land Office at Annapolis, Maryland, beginning in 1659, indicate that George Hack patented 400 acres of land called Anna Catherina Neck, probably named for his mother, at the head of Chesapeake Bay in Cecil County on Maryland's Eastern Shore, for the transportation of himself and three other persons. The second patent was on June 21, 1662 for 800 acres, called "Hackston," lying on the east side of the Chesapeake Bay on the north side of the Sassafras River. This area is still known as Hackston. The third patent, dated September 4, 1665, was for 450 acres called "Wormust" lying on the Bohemia River on the east side of the Bay in Baltimore County, adjoining the plantation of his brother-in-law, Augustine Hermann. The patent wa[s written by George Gouldsmith. Mrs. Sheppard then resumes as follows:
George Hack is called "brother-in-Lawe" by Augustine Herman in the following records concerning their Naturalization in Maryland.
["Archives of Maryland," Vol. I, page 462]:
"At General Assembly of Maryland held at St. Mary's City September 17th, 1663.
"Then was read the [petition] of Augustine Herman for an Act for Naturalizacon for himselfe Children and his brother in Lawe George Hack."
"Ordered likewise that an Acte of Naturalization be prepared for Augustine Herman, and his Children and his brother in Lawe George Hack and his wife and Children."
[Mrs. Sheppard then quotes several references to George Hack in Lord Baltimore's Rent Rolls of Kent and Cecil Counties, Maryland].
Dr. George Hack returned to Virginia before his death, and his will, dated March 5th, 1664, is recorded in Accomack County as follows:
WILL OF GEORGE HACK, who died in 1665.
[Clerk's Office, Accomac Court House, Accomack Co., Va., "Deeds & Wills 1665-1671," page 11]:
Will of George Hack dated 5 March 1664, proved 17 April, 1665.
The Inventory of George Hack's estate was taken March 22, 1665. He had a very large estate and owned many slaves.
["William and Mary Quarterly Historical Magazine," Vol. 8, page 237];
"LIBRARY OF DR. GEORGE HACKE.
"Among the influential Germans who settled on the Eastern Shore in the early days of the colony was Thomas Harmanson, 'a German born in the Dominion of Brandenberg, but now an inhabitant in Northampton County, professing the Protestant religion'. (Deed in Northampton County records, dated October 24, 1684). Still earlier was Dr. George Hacke, 'born in 1623 (1620), practicioner in physicke, a high German born in ye city of Collyne under ye Palatinate.' (Same records). Both left descendants in Virginia. The will of Dr. Hacke was dated March 5, 1664, and was proved April 17, 1665; names wife Ann as sole executrix; gives a cow calf to each of his servants and makes Major Goldsmith and Capt. Howell guardians of his three children.
Then follows a list of thirteen cattle which were sold and taken to Maryland. It is of interest at this point because there was a law against sending cattle out of Virginia without a license, and an action at law had been begun against Dr. George Hack a short time before his death for sending 11 heads of cattle out of the colony...there were on Dr. Hack's plantation forty-four head of cattle.
Following is the Confirmation of Patent for 1000 acres of Land to the widow and children of Dr. George Hack in Virginia. It is interesting and enlightening to see that although naturalized in Virginia in the year 1658, Dr. George Hack is termed as an "Alien" in this Patent, and that he was so regarded is proven by the fact that upon his death his land escheated to the Crown, and had to be re-patented to his heirs by the Governor of Virginia. [record omitted here]
After the death of Dr. George Hack, his widow Ann (Verlett) Hack applied for naturalization in Maryland for herself and her children. In this her birth place is given as Amsterdam, Holland, and that of her sons, George Nicholas and Peter, as Accomacke in Virginia.
Anna Hack, widow of Mr. (Dr.) George Hack, married (2nd), before 1667, Nicholas Bote (Boot). He died in 1668, and the following is an abstract of his will.
[Accomack Co., Va., "Deeds and Wills, 1664-1671," page 68]:
Will of Nicholas Boote, dated 9 Jan. 1667, proved 8 Apr. 1668.
Anna (Verlet) Hack Boot died in 1685 and administration of her estate was granted to "Geo: Nicholas Hack & Peter Hack, sons of sd. Ann Bote--8 July, 1685." [Accomack Co., Va., "Wills & etc. 1682-1697 (ix), page 68]. Several genealogies and histories have referred to Anna Hack as one of the leading women landowners in the American colonies.
George Hack and family are mentioned on pages 10-12 of Klaus Wust's book, "The Virginia Germans," published by The University Press of Virginia (1989).
Gravesite Details It is not proven, but is most probable, that Dr. George Hack and wife Anna are buried here, since "Evergreen" was their primary seat although they had lands in Maryland and other areas of Accomack Co., VA.

"Among the influential Germans who settled on the Eastern Shore in the early days of the colony was Thomas Harmanson, 'a German born in the Dominion of Brandenberg, but now an inhabitant in Northampton County, professing the Protestant religion'. (Deed in Northampton County records, dated October 24, 1684). Still earlier was Dr. George Hacke, 'born in 1623 (1620), practicioner in physicke, a high German born in ye city of Collyne under ye Palatinate.' (Same records). Both left descendants in Virginia. The will of Dr. Hacke was dated March 5, 1664, and was proved April 17, 1665; names wife Ann as sole executrix; gives a cow calf to each of his servants and makes Major Goldsmith and Capt. Howell guardians of his three children.
"His inventory mentions a hall, middle room entry, inward room. Total value of personalty, 20,347 pounds of tobacco.
"His library, inventoried 26 June, 1665, was:
High German and Dutch Books, ffive books in fol., 100, twoe bookes in 4to, 060, 4 bookes in 8to; 8 bookes more in 8to, 080; 3 bookes more in fol., 050, a parcell of old bookes, 050.
"Latin Books--17 bookes in 4to and large 8to, 340; 37 bookes some in 8to, 12 mo and 24 mo, 350.
"English Books--One Bible and 8 small books, 100; 11 paper bookes, 150 (pds. tobacco). (For the period this library was a large one.")

Then follows a list of thirteen cattle which were sold and taken to Maryland. It is of interest at this point because there was a law against sending cattle out of Virginia without a license, and an action at law had been begun against Dr. George Hack a short time before his death for sending 11 heads of cattle out of the colony...there were on Dr. Hack's plantation forty-four head of cattle.
Following is the Confirmation of Patent for 1000 acres of Land to the widow and children of Dr. George Hack in Virginia. It is interesting and enlightening to see that although naturalized in Virginia in the year 1658, Dr. George Hack is termed as an "Alien" in this Patent, and that he was so regarded is proven by the fact that upon his death his land escheated to the Crown, and had to be re-patented to his heirs by the Governor of Virginia. [record omitted here]
After the death of Dr. George Hack, his widow Ann (Verlett) Hack applied for naturalization in Maryland for herself and her children. In this her birth place is given as Amsterdam, Holland, and that of her sons, George Nicholas and Peter, as Accomacke in Virginia.
Anna Hack, widow of Mr. (Dr.) George Hack, married (2nd), before 1667, Nicholas Bote (Boot). He died in 1668, and the following is an abstract of his will.
[Accomack Co., Va., "Deeds and Wills, 1664-1671," page 68]:
Will of Nicholas Boote, dated 9 Jan. 1667, proved 8 Apr. 1668.
"To wife Ann all my land in Mobjack Bay in Gloucester County cont. by patent 150 acres & my interest in land at Pungoteague in Accomack County.
"To wife proceeds of all goods sent home to Holland consigned to William Shive.
"Wife resid. legatee & Exec.
"Hugh Yeo & Charles Scarburgh to assist her in disposing of her affairs.
"Witt: Charles Scarburgh, George Nich: Hack."
"To wife proceeds of all goods sent home to Holland consigned to William Shive.
"Wife resid. legatee & Exec.
"Hugh Yeo & Charles Scarburgh to assist her in disposing of her affairs.
"Witt: Charles Scarburgh, George Nich: Hack."
Anna (Verlet) Hack Boot died in 1685 and administration of her estate was granted to "Geo: Nicholas Hack & Peter Hack, sons of sd. Ann Bote--8 July, 1685." [Accomack Co., Va., "Wills & etc. 1682-1697 (ix), page 68]. Several genealogies and histories have referred to Anna Hack as one of the leading women landowners in the American colonies.
George Hack and family are mentioned on pages 10-12 of Klaus Wust's book, "The Virginia Germans," published by The University Press of Virginia (1989).
Gravesite Details It is not proven, but is most probable, that Dr. George Hack and wife Anna are buried here, since "Evergreen" was their primary seat although they had lands in Maryland and other areas of Accomack Co., VA.

In light of this, his confession of early 1697, is somewhat surprising; he didn't know how old his children were. He admitted that by "inadvertency he had neglected in setting down ye ages of his children by which means ye certain ages of his children could not be known." He claimed that this ignorance was the cause of his failure to pay taxes on his son Spencer, who had become old enough to be a tithable.

The following information is quoted from manuscripts of Mrs. Henrietta Dawson Ayres Sheppard (1871-1960) of Hanover, PA, published posthumously as "Ayres Dawson and Allied Families":
COLONEL GEORGE NICHOLAS HACK, High Sheriff of Accomack County, Justice of the County Court, and Lieutenant Colonel of the County Militia, was the eldest son of Dr. George Hack of Cologne, Germany and later of Virginia, and Anna (Varlett) Hack, his wife, who was born in Amsterdam, Holland, as stated in her Naturalization Petition before given.
Through his marriage to Ann Wright, Colonel George Hack became possessed of 1100 acres of land in the Northern Neck of Virginia, lying along the Potomac River, in which is included the present site of Mt. Vernon. Further details concerning regarding his marriage are given further on.
Following is the first mention of George Nicholas Hack in the Maryland Records [Because of space limitations, these records are omitted here. It is a June 3, 1676 patent to 800 acres at 'Hackston,' the same land which was patented to his father].
Col. George Nicholas Hack married Ann Wright, the daughter of Mr. Richard Wright (born 1633, died 1663) of London and Virginia and his wife Ann Mottrom, daughter of John Mottrom of Chicacoan, Northumberland County, Va. SEE WRIGHT MANUSCRIPT.
Col. George Nicholas Hack's brother, Peter Hack, lived in Northumberland County, Va., and was appointed ranger-general of the Northern Neck in 1690.
["Virginia Magazine of History and Biography," Vol. 5, pp. 256-258]:
"In 1699, as Captain Peter Hack, he was a justice of Northumberland, and in 1700 was one of the executors of Captain Spencer Mottram. His pay as a member of the House of Burgesses for Northumberland is included in the county levy, Dec. 3, 1706. At this time or a little later, he became a colonel of the Northumberland militia. His wife is spoken of in the records as 'Madame Mary Hacke,' but her surname does not appear. She was dead before 1706.
"On January 17, 1727, Peter Hack, of Northumberland, conveyed to his son, John Hack, the land he had bought from Colonel St. Leger Codd."

"Said Madam Spencer and Madam Hack are both now dead, and the said Frances of age, and it is conceived the said necklace is in the hands of Peter Hack.

[In the next few page of Mrs. Sheppard's genealogy, she quotes various other deeds for Lt. Col. George Nicholas Hack, one of which in summary is as follows:
1699--850 acres in Northampton/Accomack County from Matthew and Martha Brown Trim of County Middlesex, England, known as Andwey Plantation, containing houses and tobacco houses. This was in present-day Hack's Neck, which would later descend to his son Peter. ]
Sir Edmund Andros, Governor of Virginia, commissioned Capt. George Nicholas Hack High Sheriff of Accomack County, Virginia. He was sworn in at the Court held on June 7th, 1698, as shown in the following [omitted]. He was, at this time, the ranking Justice of the County Court.
Following is a commission from Sir Henry Chicheley, Knight, as a Justice of the Peace. The commission includes West, Hill, and Johnson ancestors [record not quoted].
After being commissioned High Sheriff, George Nicholas Hack was called Lieut. Colonel , and in the probate of his will, the witnesses, Coll. William Custis, Capt. John Washbourne and Robert Scott testified that they saw "ye sd L't Coll: George Nicholas Hack ye Testator Sine Seall and Publish ye same as his last Will and Testament, April ye 4th, 1705."
The following summary of Col. George Nicholas Hack's will and property bequests is quoted from James Egbert Mears' "Hack's Neck and Its People" (1937):
George Nicholas Hack, son of Dr. George, obviously returned from Maryland to Accomack.....During the last decade of the seventeenth century said Lt. Col. George Nicholas Hack bought from Matthew Trim, and Martha, his wife, 850 acres, known as the "Andewey Plantation" on the south side of Nandua Creek. This property, in his will, probated in 1705, he bequeathed to his son, Peter. The property is located near the present Cedar View wharf. Lt. Col. George Nicholas Hack bequeathed to his son George (later Captain) his lands "at Pungoteague" which undoubtedly included what was later known as Muir's Neck (now included in the "Evergreen," "Rose Hill," "Fisherman's Rest," and "Myrtle Grove" farms), lying between the south shore of Pungoteague Creek and the north shore of Butcher Creek and extending eastward to the present "Evergreen" road. Said Lt. Col. George Nicholas Hack gave to his sons, George and Peter, lands at Messongo (in Accomack) and in Cecil County, Maryland. He made bequests to his daughters, Frances, Mary Margaretta, Elizabeth, and Anne.
Gravesite Details It is not proven that he and his wife and his parents are buried here, but it is most probable since "Evergreen" was their primary plantation and his granddaughter Francina and her descendants definitely are buried here with marked tombstones.

Anecdote
A yDNA test revealed that the Genetic Distance between Stephen Wayne Turner (b 1945), a proven descendant of Samuel Turner I (c.1672-1760) of Worcester Co, MD and Brendan Turner (b.c. 1985), a proven descendant of Edward Turner I (c.1670-1729) of Northampton Co, VA is 6 at 37 markers and 7 at 67 markers.

Anecdote
A yDNA test revealed that the Genetic Distance between Stephen Wayne Turner (b 1945), a proven descendant of Samuel Turner I (c.1672-1760) of Worcester Co, MD and Brendan Turner (b.c. 1985), a proven descendant of Edward Turner I (c.1670-1729) of Northampton Co, VA is 6 at 37 markers and 7 at 67 markers. This is consistent with them being descended from a shared ancestor who lived in the late 16th century or early 17th century before coming to the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Their yDNA is shown as "salmon." (yDNA analysis provided by Nigel Bond, a member of this "salmon" yDNA group.)

Guardian - Named as a guardian 8 Jan 1722/23 Northampton County, Virginia, USA Find all individuals with events at this location [1, 4]
Sarah Bagwell came into court and chose Henry Turner to be her guardian. There is a line drawn thru Henry and over it is the name Edward. The next day it was recorded that there had been a mistake in the Christian name of Edward Turner in the bond given by him yesterday.
Estate Settlement - They were named in a settlement 4 Jun 1723 Accomack County, Virginia, USA Find all individuals with events at this location [5]
Mr. Henry Bagwell presented a bond made to him and Naomie Bagwell (executors of Alexander Bagwell, deceased) by John Jacob, Edwd. Turner, Thomas Marshall and William Major. It was proved by the oaths of Thomas Johnson and Daniel Roger.

The family of Nicolaes Varlet and Francina Jacobs
by Cor Snabel and Elizabeth A. Johnson
On the 12th of January, 1590, Nicolaes Varlet of Douai, France, married Francina Jacobs (Jacques) in Cologne, Germany. [1] Francina was a widow with a child from her previous marriage, Johannes Gelles, or Jillis, baptized on 31 January 1589 in the Dutch Reform Church of Cologne, Germany, as the posthumous child of his father, Robert Jilles. [Dutch Ref. Church Cologne 225:4a]. Nicholas Varlet married the widow Francina a year later. They were probably members of the Walloon Church in Cologne, although records of this church before the year 1600 are apparently lost.
The children of Nicholas Varlet and Francina Jacques, all born before 1600, were probably baptized in the Walloon Church of Cologne. Nicholas and Francina Varlet appear as baptism witnesses in the Walloon Church several times:
The above four baptism records were extracted by Cor Snabel in January, 2012.
Nicholas Varlet probably had a sister Catherine, who also moved to Cologne. Evidence for her existence also appears in records of the Walloon Church in Cologne:
The above two baptism records were transcribed by E Johnson in January 2012; English rendition by Cor Snabel in Jan., 2012.
It is unknown who this Catherine Varlet had married; also unknown is the name of her daughter.
The children of Nicolaes Varlet and Francina Jacobs were:
Nicolaes Varlet died on the 18th of December 1605 in Cologne, [7] leaving behind his widow with at least five under-aged children. Francina Jacobs and her children moved north along the Rhine to Wesel, where she died only a few years later. Her son Pieter made the following entry in his family register. [8] He writes (translated):
Francina Jacobs, my mother, died in the year 1612, at 6 o'clock in the evening of Friday the 19th of October in Weesel, and was also buried there in our own grave; her age was 53 years.
When Francina died, her older son, Johannes Jelles, must have been 24 years old, and Pieter Varlet, the youngest was only 14. Soon after her death the children moved to Holland, settling in Utrecht. In October 1615, when Caspar Varlet married Judith Tentenier, he was described as "from Cologne and residing in Utrecht". [9]
Catrijna Varlet's husband was Severijn Hack. Their marriage is said to have taken place on the 30th of January 1618 in Cologne, and their first son, Joris, is said to have been baptized in Cologne on the 20th of March 1620, although documentation on these marriage and baptism dates are lacking.[10] Catrijna Varlet can first be placed with certainty in Utrecht on the first of November 1615, when she witnessed the baptism of Anna Tentenier in the Walloon Church there, [11] then appears in Amsterdam on the 19th of April 1622, at the baptism of her second child, Daniel [12] and thereafter.
In the 1620's, all four children of Nicolaes Varlet and Francina Jacobs, as well as her older son, Johannes Gelles, moved to Amsterdam.
Daniel Varlet was already living in Amsterdam when he married Sara Stafmakers in January 1623. [13] When their marriage intentions were filed in Amsterdam, he was accompanied by his half-brother Johannes Jelles, who died in Amsterdam less than two years later, on the 9th of November, 1624. [14]
Pieter Varlet was married in Utrecht in December 1626 to Machtelt Jans van Bree, but their marriage record states that he was living in Amsterdam. [15] All their children were baptized in Amsterdam.
Caspar Valet married Judith Tentenier, a daughter of Abraham Tentenier, on 17 October, 1615, in Utrecht. He was the last of his siblings to move from Utrecht to Amsterdam. In 1625 he filed a request with the Amsterdam authorities, requesting permission to move his silk factory to Amsterdam. [16] The first proof that the family was actually living in Amsterdam is found in the baptism records of Amsterdam, when his daughter Marija was baptized on the 7th of November 1627.

It is unknown who this Catherine Varlet had married; also unknown is the name of her daughter.
The children of Nicolaes Varlet and Francina Jacobs were:
i. Caspar Varlet, born about 1593 in Cologne, died 1662 in Hartford, Connecticut. [2]
ii. Catrijna Varlet, born about 1595 in Cologne, died on the 18th of May 1652 in Amsterdam. [3]
iii. Daniel Varlet, born about 1597 in Cologne, died on the 3rd of January 1642 in Dunkirk, Flanders. [4]
iv. Pieter Varlet, born on the 18th of August 1598 in Cologne [5], died on the 29th of October 1661 in Amsterdam. [6]
ii. Catrijna Varlet, born about 1595 in Cologne, died on the 18th of May 1652 in Amsterdam. [3]
iii. Daniel Varlet, born about 1597 in Cologne, died on the 3rd of January 1642 in Dunkirk, Flanders. [4]
iv. Pieter Varlet, born on the 18th of August 1598 in Cologne [5], died on the 29th of October 1661 in Amsterdam. [6]
Nicolaes Varlet died on the 18th of December 1605 in Cologne, [7] leaving behind his widow with at least five under-aged children. Francina Jacobs and her children moved north along the Rhine to Wesel, where she died only a few years later. Her son Pieter made the following entry in his family register. [8] He writes (translated):
Francina Jacobs, my mother, died in the year 1612, at 6 o'clock in the evening of Friday the 19th of October in Weesel, and was also buried there in our own grave; her age was 53 years.
When Francina died, her older son, Johannes Jelles, must have been 24 years old, and Pieter Varlet, the youngest was only 14. Soon after her death the children moved to Holland, settling in Utrecht. In October 1615, when Caspar Varlet married Judith Tentenier, he was described as "from Cologne and residing in Utrecht". [9]
Catrijna Varlet's husband was Severijn Hack. Their marriage is said to have taken place on the 30th of January 1618 in Cologne, and their first son, Joris, is said to have been baptized in Cologne on the 20th of March 1620, although documentation on these marriage and baptism dates are lacking.[10] Catrijna Varlet can first be placed with certainty in Utrecht on the first of November 1615, when she witnessed the baptism of Anna Tentenier in the Walloon Church there, [11] then appears in Amsterdam on the 19th of April 1622, at the baptism of her second child, Daniel [12] and thereafter.
In the 1620's, all four children of Nicolaes Varlet and Francina Jacobs, as well as her older son, Johannes Gelles, moved to Amsterdam.
Daniel Varlet was already living in Amsterdam when he married Sara Stafmakers in January 1623. [13] When their marriage intentions were filed in Amsterdam, he was accompanied by his half-brother Johannes Jelles, who died in Amsterdam less than two years later, on the 9th of November, 1624. [14]
Pieter Varlet was married in Utrecht in December 1626 to Machtelt Jans van Bree, but their marriage record states that he was living in Amsterdam. [15] All their children were baptized in Amsterdam.
Caspar Valet married Judith Tentenier, a daughter of Abraham Tentenier, on 17 October, 1615, in Utrecht. He was the last of his siblings to move from Utrecht to Amsterdam. In 1625 he filed a request with the Amsterdam authorities, requesting permission to move his silk factory to Amsterdam. [16] The first proof that the family was actually living in Amsterdam is found in the baptism records of Amsterdam, when his daughter Marija was baptized on the 7th of November 1627. [17]

PLEASE BE AWARE: The Will of Maria Varleth Teller posted here will correct the misinformation that Jenneke's mother was Margaret Duncanson. In Maria's will she mentions only her own children and her own grandchildren listing her " younger daughter Janneke Schuyler's children." She makes no mention of William Teller's children by Margaret because she directs the executors of her late Husband's estate to take possession of all such possessions that she still has of his not left to her from him . HER executors are to take care of Her personal property which she divides between her own daughters Susannah and Jenneke —half sisters.
The lineage of the Duncanson's is NOT part of the Schuyler lineage.
Again MARIA VARLETH TELLER was the MOTHER of Jenneke Teller Schuyler without any doubt at all.
The Varleth family had very interesting lives. Check her father Casparus's site for sources.
Maria was 23 years old when she came to New Amsterdam with her family on the ship Fortuyn.
She made 3 fine matches to well-to-do men.
1. Johannes Van Beeck who was the youngest son of Isaac Van Beeck one of the Directors of the West India Company in The Netherlands. The couple did not want to wait for permission from Isaac in Holland and decided to run off to get married without publishing the banns and had an "unauthorized farmer Goodman Crab " perform the officiating in Greenwich, Connecticut September 14, 1654. They were runaways and had to be caught and go to court. There was much recorded regarding the deliberation in the pursuing weeks.
Source —Recorded in Chapter V -Domestic and Social Life Under the Dutch 1647-1664 in "A History of the City of Brooklyn pub 1894
The court was finally lenient; deciding they were so in " Love" that they should post the banns and get married without much further adieu, although they did have to post them 3 times. The marriage is recorded as Sep 14,1654 in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Maria and Johannes had a daughter Judith Van Beeck who later married Gabriel Minvielle August 29, 1674
One year later in November of 1655 Johannes and Maria were captured by the Indians when they returned from a sailing trip. They had taken along her sister Sara Varleth who was traumatized by the ordeal. On the 16th Johannes was killed and stuffed in a canoe but Maria was able to escape with Sara. What hardship and sadness. His father was Isaac Van Beeck. Johannes had 2 known brothers Joost and NIcholas. Nicholas gave Maria a great deal of trouble. She was left with a baby daughter- Judith Van Beeck—and went to the brothers asking for help financially but they claimed that they did not recognize the marriage because they had "eloped" and would have nothing to do with Maria or the baby daughter of their brother.
The record of Johannes death is November 16, 1655.
Maria protested legally but it seems she raised the baby a widow for three years herself.
It is felt that because there was dissension about her first marriage to Johannes Van Beeck and their daughter Judith, it possibly could have been annulled as Maria did ask for an annulment—those records have not been located as of yet. Purple goes on to
2. Secondly Maria married Paulus Schrick Nov 29, 1658 in Albany— marriage records
They had a daughter and a son
Maria and Paulus Schrick presented for baptism on September 2, 1663 at the Reformed Dutch Church in New Amsterdam both
a) Susannah Marie Schrick whose sponsors (Getuygen) were Nicolaes Verleth and Cornelia Van Ruyven. —Susanna Schrick bp Sep 2, 1663 who joined The Reformed Dutch Church in the City of New York November 30, 1676. Susannah Schrick married Captain Anthony Brockholst in Albany, NY May 2, 1681 —from the Albany Dutch Church marriage records. It seems they had 7 children . They named one daughter Jenneken bp September 18, 1692 in the New York Dutch Reformed Church p 210 ibid . NOTE Susannah Brockholst is not the daughter of William Teller nor the wife of Arent Schuyler. In William Teller Sr's will he mention's Susannah Brockholst as his "daughter-in-law" However she was really his step-daughter because she was the daughter of William Teller Sr's second-wife -Maria with her second husband Paulus Schrick. Complicated but by following all the paper work it's how it concludes.
b) Maria and Paulus Schrick also presented for baptism their son Paulus Schrick. (Twins?) His sponsors were Anna Stuyvesants and Jannetie Verleth
Source NYG&B Vol 2 p 70
Maria's THIRD husband was the second wife of Willem Teller Sr. who had first married Margaret Duncanson.
William was an early settler and a merchant and trader of New York. A Deposition made July 6, 1698 reported that he arrived in 1639 and was sent to Fort Orange by the Dutch West India Company serving as Corporal and "Wachtmeeter" until 1692.

In the pictured document, it is recorded that on April 9, 1664 Willem Teller from Fort Orange widower of Margaret Dunces was married to Maria Varleth widow of Paulus Schrick. They took up residence at Nos 64-66 Broadway. The lot was 44 feet wide and 91 feet north of Exchange Place . In Maria's will in 1701 it is described as bounded "west by Broadway, east by New Street, north by Peter Kingsland south by William Mossse."
She also lists Jenneke Schuyler as being "her youngest daughter" although Jenneke died after the death of her last child and before Maria Teller—her mother. Also she lists her son-in-law Arent Schuyler as a possible executor as well as Arent's brother Brandt Schuyler.
Jenneke was NOT the daughter of Margaret Duncasson (sp).
Maria's will was confirmed September 21, 1702 in the city of New York.
We own several documents about Maria's family including one in her own handwriting in Old Dutch which she wrote to Johannes Abeel before she died in 1701 giving him directions as to all the monies that needed to be collected to "right" her estate. We have posted it here to the left for all to view by using the "View Original" button. Maria was a very bright, cleared- headed woman with a with a steady hand. After a year of futile attempts to find a translator of Old Dutch we located someone who took a year to research and translate and transcribe it in the Old Dutch. Because of our interest in Maria and Jenneke we have researched them both in great depth for more than 30 years. Anyone with questions please feel free to contact me by clicking on my name (this maintainer) below.

PLEASE BE AWARE: The Will of Maria Varleth Teller posted here will correct the misinformation that Jenneke's mother was Margaret Duncanson. In Maria's will she mentions only her own children and her own grandchildren listing her " younger daughter Janneke Schuyler's children." She makes no mention of William Teller's children by Margaret because she directs the executors of her late Husband's estate to take possession of all such possessions that she still has of his not left to her from him . HER executors are to take care of Her personal property which she divides between her own daughters Susannah and Jenneke —half sisters.
The lineage of the Duncanson's is NOT part of the Schuyler lineage.
Again MARIA VARLETH TELLER was the MOTHER of Jenneke Teller Schuyler without any doubt at all.
The Varleth family had very interesting lives. Check her father Casparus's site for sources.
Maria was 23 years old when she came to New Amsterdam with her family on the ship Fortuyn.
She made 3 fine matches to well-to-do men.
1. Johannes Van Beeck who was the youngest son of Isaac Van Beeck one of the Directors of the West India Company in The Netherlands. The couple did not want to wait for permission from Isaac in Holland and decided to run off to get married without publishing the banns and had an "unauthorized farmer Goodman Crab " perform the officiating in Greenwich, Connecticut September 14, 1654. They were runaways and had to be caught and go to court. There was much recorded regarding the deliberation in the pursuing weeks.
Source —Recorded in Chapter V -Domestic and Social Life Under the Dutch 1647-1664 in "A History of the City of Brooklyn pub 1894
The court was finally lenient; deciding they were so in " Love" that they should post the banns and get married without much further adieu, although they did have to post them 3 times. The marriage is recorded as Sep 14,1654 in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Maria and Johannes had a daughter Judith Van Beeck who later married Gabriel Minvielle August 29, 1674
One year later in November of 1655 Johannes and Maria were captured by the Indians when they returned from a sailing trip. They had taken along her sister Sara Varleth who was traumatized by the ordeal. On the 16th Johannes was killed and stuffed in a canoe but Maria was able to escape with Sara. What hardship and sadness. His father was Isaac Van Beeck. Johannes had 2 known brothers Joost and NIcholas. Nicholas gave Maria a great deal of trouble. She was left with a baby daughter- Judith Van Beeck—and went to the brothers asking for help financially but they claimed that they did not recognize the marriage because they had "eloped" and would have nothing to do with Maria or the baby daughter of their brother.
The record of Johannes death is November 16, 1655.
Maria protested legally but it seems she raised the baby a widow for three years herself.
It is felt that because there was dissension about her first marriage to Johannes Van Beeck and their daughter Judith, it possibly could have been annulled as Maria did ask for an annulment—those records have not been located as of yet. Purple goes on to
2. Secondly Maria married Paulus Schrick Nov 29, 1658 in Albany— marriage records
They had a daughter and a son
Maria and Paulus Schrick presented for baptism on September 2, 1663 at the Reformed Dutch Church in New Amsterdam both
a) Susannah Marie Schrick whose sponsors (Getuygen) were Nicolaes Verleth and Cornelia Van Ruyven. —Susanna Schrick bp Sep 2, 1663 who joined The Reformed Dutch Church in the City of New York November 30, 1676. Susannah Schrick married Captain Anthony Brockholst in Albany, NY May 2, 1681 —from the Albany Dutch Church marriage records. It seems they had 7 children . They named one daughter Jenneken bp September 18, 1692 in the New York Dutch Reformed Church p 210 ibid . NOTE Susannah Brockholst is not the daughter of William Teller nor the wife of Arent Schuyler. In William Teller Sr's will he mention's Susannah Brockholst as his "daughter-in-law" However she was really his step-daughter because she was the daughter of William Teller Sr's second-wife -Maria with her second husband Paulus Schrick. Complicated but by following all the paper work it's how it concludes.
b) Maria and Paulus Schrick also presented for baptism their son Paulus Schrick. (Twins?) His sponsors were Anna Stuyvesants and Jannetie Verleth
Source NYG&B Vol 2 p 70
Maria's THIRD husband was the second wife of Willem Teller Sr. who had first married Margaret Duncanson.
William was an early settler and a merchant and trader of New York. A Deposition made July 6, 1698 reported that he arrived in 1639 and was sent to Fort Orange by the Dutch West India Company serving as Corporal and "Wachtmeeter" until 1692.
