• After his marriage he resided in New Utrecht, Long Island on property which his wife had inherited from her father. Adriaen also owned extensive real estate fronting on the bay at Yellow Hook (now Bay Ridge). On 29 May 1661 he was received as a member of the Brooklyn Dutch Church. He was recorded as a member and deacon in 1677 (according to Bergen, which is not in accordance with the published transcript the records [HYSB:1897:137] but does appear in that printed in Stiles, History of Brooklyn, v.1, p.428, of the records made before 1867 by Bergen). He served as Constable of New Utrecht in 1676. Ariaen Willemsen and associates of New Utrecht, in 1673 petitioned for land on Staten Island. If it was received, he probably never occupied it. In 1677 he also owned lots nos. 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 fronting on the Bay and extending back to the present day Third Avenue at Yellow Hook. On 26 Jan 1681/82, he sold his Bay Ridge premises to Denyse Theunise and his New Utrecht house and lot to Hans Harmense Van Barkelo. He also sold his farm in 1681 to Carl Janse Van Dyck and moved back to Gowanus, where he had bought land on 14 Jan 1681 from his mother for 12,000 gl. of good merchantable wheat. The property was later known as the Schermerhorn farm at Gowanus. He is found on the Brooklyn assessment roll for 26 Sept. 1683 and was rated at 1 poll, 5 horses, 6 cows, 1 ox of 4 years, 4 oxen of 4 years (sic), and 3 oxen of 1 year, £109, 25 morgens of land £50; total £159. His name appears in the Dongan patent of 13 May 1686. He was a commissioner in 1687, and he appears as Adriaen Bennet on the 1698 census at Brooklyn with a family consisting of 1 man, 2 women, and 4 children. The last known reference to Adriaen was on 9 Feb. 1703/04 when "Adryan Bennet and wife Ananitie" sold to son Abraham land in the latter's possession bounded by that of John and William Bennet. He had previously sold land in Gowanus to Simon Aerson and Agias Van Dyck.⁶

• Adriaen Willemszen was living on 9 February 1703/4.
• Adriaen did not leave a will, and there are gaps in the Brooklyn Dutch Church records during the period in which his children were born, so a precise record of his family is difficult to construct.³

Willem Willemszen¹

• Father*: Willem Adriaenszen² b. b 1615, d. bt 9 Mar 1644 - 9 Sep 1644
• Mother*: Marie Thomasdr Badie² b. c 1608, d. a Jan 1697

• Willem Willemszen was born in 1638 or 1639.¹
• He married Gertrude Van Mulheym at Reformed Dutch Church, New Amsterdam, on 9 April 1660.^2,3
• Willem Willemszen possibly died between April 1689 and 1698 when he is mentioned on a deed, and when is not found on the Brooklyn census.
• Also known as Willem Willemszen Bennet.²
• On 18 Dec 1658, a suit was initiated by Thomas Verdon before the Orphan Master's Court at City Hall, New Amsterdam, "Mr. Paulus Van der Beek appears in the place of Tomas Verdon's son and is (directed), that when Tomas Verdon comes, he is to make a settlement of his wife's (Mary Badies's) estate." Apparently this was not completed, and four years later on 8 Feb 1663, Adam Brouwer (for his wife Magdalena Verdon), Thomas Verdon, and Arien Willemsen (Bennet) again appeared before the Orphan Master's Court and requested action in that Paulus Van der Beek should be ordered to let them have "their father's property." A week later on 15 Feb 1663, their mother Marritie Tomas (Mary Badie) made her deposition before the Orphan Master's Court. The Orphan Master's Court decided that the property and persons were not within their jurisdiction and suggested that the petitioners address themselves to the Director General and Council of New Netherlands. On 1 March 1664, a petition by "Willem Willemsen Bennet, Thomas Verdon, Adam Brouwer, and Adriaen Willemsen (Bennet), coheirs of Thomas (error for Jacob) Vardon, praying that Paulus van der Beecq, husband of said Vardon's widow (Mary Badie), may be obliged to account for their paternal estate." This was followed on 10 May 1664 by a warrent to "Sheriff Hegeman to put Adriaen, William, and Marietje Williamsen Bennet in possession of a portion of their late father's lands, pending their suit against Paulus van der Beecq, their stepfather."^4,5
• Willem owned a farm in Gowanus which later belonged to Cornelis W. Bennet. He was the ancestor of the Bennets of New Utrecht, Bushwick, and of one line in Monmouth County, New Jersey. At an earlier time in his life, however, it appears that he lived in New Amsterdam. He is called "Van Amsterdam in N. Nederlt" on the record of his marriage, and on 25 Dec. 1661 he was admitted as a member to the Reformed Dutch Church in Brooklyn with a letter from the Church in New Amsterdam. In 1676 he was on the assessment roll of Brooklyn (of which Gowanus was then a part) with 1 poll, 2 horses, 2 horses of 1 year, 2 oxen, 5 cows, 4 cows of two years, 3 cows of one year, valued at £99:10 and 13 1/2 morgens of land valued at £27, total £126:10. He is certainly the "William Bennings" in the Brooklyn Assessment of 1683 where his total holdings incresed to £149. Willem's original holdings were presumed to be from his share in the distribution of Bennet lands resulting from legal action taken by him, his brother Adriaen, and his Verdon half brother and sister against Paulus Van der Beek, their common step-father. Van der Beek, in the right of his wife, their mother, had continued to hold the Bennet property after the children came of age.³
• New Netherland surrendered to the English invasion fleet in early September 1664. The New Amsterdam Court records of 13 Oct 1664 show that "Willem Willemszen and Thomas Verdon, inhabitants of Gowanus, appearing with them Thomas Fransen, carman, complain of the great injury inficted on them by some English, about twenty persons innumber from one of the ships lying in the Bay...The above named Willem Willemszen declares that they took away his powder, lead, and gun; also the stocking and shoes from his feet; further six to seven pounds of rolled tobacco just spun; and a young hog together with a red under-waistcoat. And with a hanger they severly struck Tomas Verdon's wife, whilst the above-named Verdon was out with the above-named Tomas Fransen, and inflicted a blood wound onher arm. (They also) took the goods out of the chest and strewed them over the floor, keeping watch at the door, so that he should not run out to call the neighbors; and when they missed him, because he climbed out through a back window, they hastily took the goods from the chest and strewed them over the floor, as already declared."⁶
• Willem Willemsen is listed among the "Old Members" and as an Elder of the Brooklyn Reformed Dutch Church on 12 March 1677, and again on 11 June 1677. Either he, or his son of the same name, took the oath of allegiance in Brooklyn in the fall of 1687. Only one Willem Bennet took the oath, and although he was old enough, the son if still living with his father, would not have been required to. In a deed dated 20 April 1689 from his mother, Mary Badie to his brother Adriaen, Willem Willemse Bennet's land is referred to in a fashion that indicates he was alive at the time. Only one Willem Bennet appears on the 1698 census in Brooklyn, with five children, and so is more likely the son.⁶

Theunis Wiltsie¹

• Father*: Hendrick Martense Wiltsie²
• Mother*: Margaret Meyringh²

• Theunis Wiltsie was baptized on 10 January 1674 at Reformed Dutch Church, New York City.²
• He married Divertje Gerrits, daughter of Gerrit Lubbertsen and Geertruy Willems van Boerum, say 1697.¹
• Theunis Wiltsie possibly died between 1715 and 1726 at Newtown, Queens Co., Long Island, New York.³
• He witnessed the baptism of Hillegont Hardenbergh , daughter of Jan Hardenbergh and Grietje Gerrits, on 29 June 1703 at Reformed Dutch Church, Jamaica, Queens Co., Long Island, New York, (sponsors Theunis and Divertje Wiltsie).⁴
• He lived at Newtown, Long Island, although he is not found on the 1698 census there. Children's baptisms are recorded in adjacent towns, 1698-1706. Riker states that he acquired his father's farm on the Sound at Hellgate Neck in Newtown. This is apparently the 106 acre plantation which he sold 3 May 1712 for four hundred pounds, excepting the family burying ground. In 1715 Theunis Wiltsie was a member of a Newtown militia company. This is the last reference of him found. He was not present as a sponsor for the baptisms of his grandchildren. Some earlier accounts of Theunis Wiltsie (Jerome Wiltsee, Zabriskie and Cook) state that Theunis was at Dobbs Ferry, New York as late as 1741, however, Macy (1985) has found no evidence to this claim, and states that Theunis likely died between 1715 and 1726 at Newtown. The last reference of his wife, Divertje, is the 1709 baptism record of a daughter. A list of some supposed children for this couple as stated by earlier researchers, with explanations, can be found in "Descendants of Gerrit Lubbertsen of Jamaica, L.I.," by Harry Macy, Jr. (NYGBR 116 (1985):203.²
