Book "Hendricksons of NY, NJ, & Penn." by Marie McConnell, page 42

"If the "Dr. Hendrickson" listed in Franklin Township in 1776 was our Daniel and there seems no reason to doubt this. There is nothing to tell when he became a doctor (left out). I have read that the medical education of "doctors" was very casual in those days. Anyway this might explain why his son Okey performed the services of a doctor among the wounded soldiers in his vicinity during the Revolutionary War. We do not know when Daniel died - but he was living in 1776 when he was about 68."

488. Daniel Hendrickson born 1708/10, died after 1776, married about 1731.

ELEVENTH GENERATION - MATERNAL LINES

Hendrickson Family

[1664 - British annex New Netherlands from Connecticut to Delaware and rename New Amsterdam,... New York]

Book- Allen Family, Early PA Genealogy Gleanings, by William J. Allen

"The first definately proven Hendrickson ancestor was by name Hendrick Hendricks(en), supposedly a son of Daniel and Emma Van Guelder Hendrickson. Hendrick was born in 1636 in Utrecht, Holland, but removed from there to the ancestral home in Westphalia before 1658.

In many European countries then the patronymic system of naming was used to a great extent, so the children of a man with the given name of Hendrick would add the suffex "s", "se", or "sen" (later to become son), and adopt it as a surname; or if they already had a surname, then they would insert it between their first and last name.

Hendrick Hendricks' wife was Jane Luitgirt, and the couple came to America in March of 1663 on the ship "Rosebloom" landing in New Amsterdam. The following year, Hendricksen is listed as serving under Director General Peter Stuvyesant, who was resisting the occupation of the British.

William, or as he always signed his name "Wilm Hendricks" was born in Flatbush, Long Island and the son of Hendrick and Jane. He married before 1697 to Willemptje, a daughter of Guisbert Thyssen Laenen VanPelt and Jannetje Adriannse Lambertson. Both of Willemptje's grandparents arrived on the Rosebloom in 1663.

Willemptje's grandfather was Matthys Janse VanPelt and was married to Marijken Gysbrecht. The Laenens were at one time traders who traveled with the famous Flemish cloth to Holland, Germany and Lorraine, and even to more distant countries. While staying in these distant places they were referred to as "van pelt" (of pelt). Mattys and Marijken sailed on the Rosebloom, but Marijken died on the voyage and was buried at sea.

Gysbrecht Thyssen Laen VanPelt was their youngest child. His descendants are eligible to membership in any organization based solely on 17th century residence, and also any which requires that the ancestor performed an outstanding act or held public office of some importance. By the time of his death, he had anglicized his name to Gilbert Lane.

Daniel Hendrickson was the youngest child of William and Willemptje. Left without either of his parents by the age of two, we know nothing of his early life. He was married twice. Magdalena was Daniel's first wife.

Their son, Okey Hendrickson married Mary Anne Ganno Steepe. He served in the third battalion of the Middlesex County Militia during the Revolution, moved later to Mason County, Kentucky."

1952. Hendrick Hendricks(en) born 1636 in Utrecht, Holland. He sailed to America on the ship Rosetta. He had a farm at Flatland, Long Island, New York. In 1664 his name is found as a soldier enroled under Gov. Peter Stuyvesant who resisted the English occupation of New Amsterdam.

1953. Jane Luitgirt. No further information.
