DESCENDANTS OF ROELOF LUCCASSEN SEBRING

ROELOF LUCASSEN SEBRING, born about 1595 in the village of Beyle/Beilen, Drenthe, Netherlands was the progenitor of the following Sebrings. Presumably he died in the Netherlands. Little is known of this Sebring.

SECOND GENERATION

Children of ROELOF LUCASSEN SEBRING and 1st wife unknown:

1. WILLEMPTJE was born about 1619; died about 1690; married STEVEN COERTE VAN VOORHEES born about 1600 near Hees in the Netherlands; died 16 Feb 1683/4 Flatbush NY; son of Coert Alberts Van Voorhees. They emigrated to New Amsterdam in 1660 aboard "De Bonte Koe". Willempie was the second wife of Steven Van Voorhees.

+2. Lambertje was born about 1615 to 1621 in the Netherlands; died 21 Jun 1675; married Captain Jan Stryker born 1615 in the Netherlands; died 3 Mar 1696/7; son of Gerrit Stryker and Altje Johansdochter. Both are buried in Flatbush Reformed Churchyard. Emigrated to New Amsterdam in 1651/52.

 Children of ROELOF LUCASSEN SEBRING and second wife who is unknown:

+3. JAN ROELOFSE was born about 1631 in the Province of Drenthe as proved by a document in Colonial Manuscripts of NY; Vol XXVII; p 136; which states that he was 48 years old on October 10, 1679, and a native of the land of Drenthe. Jan died about 1703. He married ADRINNA POLHEMUS born about 1644 in Brazil while her father, Rev. Johannes Theodorus Polhemus was minister there; her mother is Catharina Van Werven. Jan emigrated to New Amsterdam; it is controversial when he arrived. It may have been as early as 1654 as this is found in the HISTORY AND COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL RECORD OF COUNTY OF KINGS AND CITY OF BROOKLYN NY 1683-1884; Henry R. Stiles:

"the inhabitants of Midwout nominated six men in Apr 1654 from whom three were chosen to act as schepens of the village. In the absence of any Midwout records earlier that 1659, we cannot state postitively the names of these officers. We know that Adriaen Hegeman was appointed a local magistrate in 1654, and find his name on the earliest record of the village as serving still in the capacity of schepen. It is therefore reasonable to presume that the other men, whose names are found with his on the record of July 2, 1959, were appointed schepens with him in 1654. If this is correct, then the first three local magistrates of Midwout were Adriaen Hegeman, Willem Van Boerum, Jan Sueberingh."

Jan and Adrinna were members of the RDC, Midwout, until 1681 when they removed to Bergen NJ. Adrinna died before 1702; Jan married (2) Aeltje (unknown). At age 72 Jan was still able to travel over the Indian trails from Bergen to the Raritan; there were no roads in New Jersey until 1712.
