She was daughter of Eoelof Kiersted aud Eyke Boosa, and a descendant of Annetje Webber, wife of Eoelof Jansen, and afterward of Rev. Everardus Bogarctus, who is familiarly and expensively known to her descendants, to Trinity Church, and to the courts of New York, as Anneke Janse. Roelof Jansen and wife had a daughter, Sarah Eoeloffe, who was married to Hans Kiersted, and their son Eoelof Kiersted was husband of Eyke Eoosa.
The ancestor of the Kiersteds was killed in France for his religion, and his dead body was dragged through the street by the hair of his head. His son, who was a weaver of line fabrics, was stripped of his property. Hiwife peddled needles and other small things. Both were industrious, and they got together considerable money, which they invested in black broadcloth, and bringing the cloth with them to New Amsterdam, they found profitable sale, for some conspicuous man had recently died, and black goods were in demand, while the supply was short. The sale of the cloth gave them such a start that they were in possession of a large property at the time of their death.
Cornelius Wynkoop was in Albany as early as 1655; came to Kingston prior to 1671. His wife was Maria Janse Langendyck (q. v. under Maria Wynkoop). They had issue: i.

Cornelius. No positive evidence has been found of relationship between this Cornelius, and the Peter who has been already mentioned. But Peter's name is recorded at Albany as settled there in 1642, and in an instrument executed by him at that place, in 1640, he is described as twenty-four years old ; and the name of Cornelius appears at the same place as a resident, and as making contracts there, in 1657. It is therefore probable that Cornelius was son of Peter. The first record found of Cornelius is an agreement,dated January 29, 1657, for the purchase of a house at Albany from Marcellus Janssen (Van Bommel), for 911 guilders, equal to $364.40. And on the 19th of September of the same year he was surety for William Brouwer.
On the 1st of May, 1658, he brought an action of debt,at Albany, against Cornelius Teunnissen, for his share of the expense of foddering and taking care of the town bull during the winter. Judgment for plaintiff, ten guilders, equal to $4.00.
On the 25th of November of the year following, an order was made, upon his request, for the appointment of curators over the estate at Esopus, left by Gysbert Philipsen, who had been murdered by the Indians at that place.
He made a lease, May 30, 1662, to Lambert Huybertse, of lots one and sixteen at Esopus.
On the 25th of April, 1663, Cornelius obtained a grant of twelve morgens of land at Esopus, Ulster County. Thisland was at Hurley, and contained nearly twenty-six acres. In the Book of Patents, in the Secretary of State's office, is a confirmatory patent to Cornelius Wynkoop, dated June 28, 1667, of a parcel of land at Esopus, near the new village, to the west of Nicholas Yarlett, on the west side of the creek, containing about twenty-four acres ; also a lot west of the highway, and west of Lambert Huybertse's all granted origiually by Director Stuyvesant. This " new village " is now Hurley.
On the 30th of March, 1670, the Commissioners for laying out land at Esopus, allowed Cornelius to lay out his two parcels of land at Hurley in one farm, on condition that he set off five morgens for the assistance of Marbletown. In the annexed Eegister of Patents to inhabitants of the town of Hurley, there is for Cornelius Wynkoop twenty-four acres and forty-eight acres.
The place at Hurley, now owned and occupied by George, No. " 275," has been for a long series of years in the continuous occupation of a male line of the family
In 1671 he was elected an Elder of the Eeformed Protestant Dutch Church at Kingston. Hermanus Blom was at this time, or had been recently, Pastor.
On the 10th of June, 1672, he was appointed one of the two new Commissaries of Kingston. He was again appointed October 6, 1673, and served until August 14,1674.
He was Schepen of Hurley in 1G73. On the 5th ot July, 1674, lie was witness to the renewal of a treaty with the Indians.
Cornelius, on the 1 1th of August, 1070, appeared before William La Montague, Secretary for the Honorable Justices at Kingston, and made his will, " leaving behind his lawful wife and seven children." On the 10th of May,1679, "Maria, widow of Cornelius Wynkoop" — signing herself "Maria Langedyck, widow of Cornelius Wynkoop" — made her will, appointing "for tutors or guardians of her minor children, Wessel Ten Brook and William De Meyer." She declared that her " oldest son Johannes shall first have the silver piece from the fleet of Port Heen." She called Marytje her oldest daughter, and Benjamin her youngest son.
The record at Kingston of the baptism of her children Catharine and Benjamin, call her simply Marytje Jans.
In March, 1000, among the immigrants by the "Love," was Marytje Jansen, maiden, and in the same month, in the " Gilded Beaver," was Maria Jans, orphan daughter.
An inventory of the property sold at auction, of Cornelius, was made in 1077. The guardians under Mrs. Wynkoop's will were, on the 8th of February, 1081, ordered to account for the property by Spring. The Administrators let her property in 1081.
So information has been obtained as to the dates of birth or of baptism of their children Marytje, Johannes, or Gerrit. But the descriptions in Mrs. Wynkoop's will, and a comparison of the given dates of birth or of baptism, with the order of sequence of the names in two deeds, make it seem probable that Marytje or Johannes was the oldest child, that Evert was third and Gerrit fourth. Then followed the others, Nicholas, Catharine, and Benjamin. Nicholas and Catharine disappear from view, after the record of their baptism, and their inclusion in the " seven children" specified in their father's will. It is probable that they died before majority.
A deed was made September 1, 1697, by Johannes, Evert, Gerrit, and Benjamin, and Moses Dupuis, to Jacob Rutse, of lauds whereof Cornelius Wynkoop, deceased, late of Kingston, was in possession. And a partition deed was executed April 26, 1715, by Major Johannes, Captain Gerrit, and Benjamin, and Moses Dupuis, to Evert Wynkoop.

She was daughter of Eoelof Kiersted aud Eyke Boosa, and a descendant of Annetje Webber, wife of Eoelof Jansen, and afterward of Rev.

Gerrit took the oath of allegiance to the British in 1689, in Ulster County. In the year 1700 he was Ensign of a foot company in the counties of Ulster and Dutchess, under Coenraad Elmendorf, Captain. In 1712 he was Deacon in the Dutch church at Kingston, and as such joined in a petition for its incorporation.
He was known as Gerardus at Esopus, where he was engaged in farming until 1717, when he sold his land in Ulster County, and removed to the township of More-land, then Philadelphia, now Montgomery, County, Pennsylvania, where his name was transformed to Gerrit.
The first trace of the name which has been discovered in the United States of America, is in 1639, when Peter Wynkoop appears in certain court proceedings. It is assumed that he was the founder of the family in this country, and the father of Cornelius, who settled in Esopus, Ulster County ; for Peter was a settler at Albany, and Cornelius went thence to Esopus, aud a comparison of dates leads to the conclusion that they bore the relation of father and son. Tradition says that Cornelius C. Wynkoop, a young bachelor, came to this country, from Utrecht, in the United Dutch Netherlands, and settled at Vest Oranje (Fort Orange), which is now included within the city of Albany, that he erected there certain waterworks, which were destroyed by a freshet and that he removed thence to Hurley, Ulster County. The name appears to be a contraction of Wyukooper,which, in the Dutch language, signifies wine merchant. A curious and suggestive engraving, upon copper-plate, came into the possession of the Compiler, from his grandfather, Peter Wynkoop, of which a lithograph is here given. It appears to be designed as a coat of arms, yet the crest is the only part which savors of heraldry. Two distinct prints, identical in substance, but differing circumstantially, have been preserved in as many branches of the family ; one with female supporters to the shield, and the name of either Cornelias 0. Wynkoop or Augustus Wynkoop associated with it; the other haying the name of Peter Wynkoop.
Our motto, Virtidem Hilaritate Colere — To adorn excellence with joyousness — lias been preserved upon a piece of silver ware in the possession of Mrs. Leonard Mortimer Thorne, a descendant of Mrs. James Rognet, No. "215." Thence it has been produced in the lithograph j taking the place of the name " Peter Wynkoop," which was in the copper-plate when it cameinto the hands of the Compiler. The family name is borne by a bay in the southerly coast of Java, near the westerly end of the island. This must be a memento of some navigator, or merchant, or landed proprietor.
WYNKOOP GENEALOGY.
Peter. — Born 1616. This appears from his statement, in a declaration made by him, March 9, 1640/ that he was then twenty-four years old. His name is first mentioned in certain court proceedings, February 10, 1639, Fiscaal against Peter Wynkoop, for smuggling ; the liquors were confiscated and the defendant was fined twelve guilders. This was a bad beginning; but the after record of him indicates a substantial and trusted citizen. In the following year he made a declaration as to the ownership of hay, which was in the possession of Barent Dircksen.
Two years later he is mentioned as Commissary Superintendent of Wares and Merchandise for the Patroon Van Rensselaer, and as a settler at Rensselaerwyck, now Albany.
In 1644 he was commissioned by the Patroon to purchase land about Catskill, from the natives, and, in connection with the Commissary-General, Arendt Van Cmier, to recover land and other property, which was alleged to have been purchased and misappropriated by Adriaan Vander Donck, a former agent. In the same year Peter Wynkoop was supercargo of the vessel "The Arms of Rensselaerwyck," and arrived with her at Manhattan, now New York, she having been dispatched the previous autumn by the Patroon to his colony. Kieft, the Governor, demanded from him shoes for the soldiers, who were then fighting the Indians of the neighborhood of Hempstead, Long Island. Wynkoop refused to supply them. Kieft seized the shoes and ordered the vessel to be searched, and finding powder and guns, which were not manifested, he declared them contraband, and seized both cargo and vessel. Wynkoop protested. He also sued the Fiscaal at Fort Amsterdam. The vessel and cargo were released, however, and the case was referred for settlement to the Directors in Holland. She soon after sailed.
March 10, 1644. Court proceedings. Adriaen Willemsen against Peter Wynkoop, on complaint that the defendant had stated that the plaintiff gave information that there were prohibited goods on board ; defendant says it was the boatswain, who is ordered to appear, and Wynkoop is discharged.
March 17, 1644, Adriaen Willemsen against Andrew, the boatswain, for having reported that plaintiff had informed against Rensselaer's ship, for having contraband goods on board ; defendant says Lubbert Jansen told him so. Lubbert Jan sen declares that what he reported about the ship is untrue that he knows nothing of the plaintiff but what is honorable and virtuous is sorry for what he said, and begs plaintiff's pardon. Lubbert Jansen to pay costs.
March 18, 1644. Protest. Peter Wynkoop, Supercargo of the ship "The Arms of Rensselaerwyck," against Fiscaal Yander Huyghens, for discharging that vessel.
March 22, 1644. Answer of Fiscaal Yander Huyghens to the above. March 23, 1644. Eeceipt : Peter Wynkoop, for 18 kegs of gunpowder from the Fiscaal.
October 27, 1644. Court proceedings. Fiscaal against Peter Wynkoop, Supercargo of the ship " The Arms of Eensselaerwyck," smuggling, on petition of Arendt Yan Curler. Case referred to the Directors of the West India Company in Amsterdam, as the vessel is old and leaky. 3 May 31, 1646. Court proceedings. Hillegond Joris against Peter Wynkoop, on an order to show cause why defendant had arrested plaintiff's husband in the colony Rensselaerwyck. Defendant says for debt ; and that the case having originated in Rensselaerwyck, must be determined there.
