Pieter Janse Loockermans, native of Turnhout, province of Antwerp, Belgium, was in New Amsterdam as early as 1642. He had brothers, Govert and Jacob, and had married Maritje ?.

Sander Leendertse Glen and Pieter Janse Loockermans, uncles of said children
Loockermans is in Frankrijk geboren en was 13 jaar toen zijn ouders zich in Turnhout vestigden.
Govert en zijn zus Anna en broer waren Protestant en moesten Turnhout ontvluchten, eerst naar Holland en daarna naar Nieuw Amsterdam. Zij zijn de voorouders van illustere Amerikanen als Theodore en Franklin Roosevelt.

GOVERT LOOCKERMANS, the most noted of his family, was born at Turnhout, a town in the Netherlands, and came to New Amsterdam in April, 1633. It appears he left Holland with Director General Wouter Van Twiller in the ship Soutberg, which captured on her voyage a Spanish caravel, the St. Martin, to which vessel he was transferred, and which was brought safely into port. With him came Jacob Wolfertsen (Van Couwenhoven), whose first wife, Hester Jans, was a sister of Loockerman's first wife. Upon his arrival he was taken into the service of the West India Company, as clerk, but he soon left this employment and engaged in business on his own account.
In 1640 he went back to Holland, where he married 1st, in Amsterdam, Feb. 26, 1641, Ariaentje Jans, with whom he returned to New Amsterdam in the ship King David, Job Arentsen, Master, arriving here Nov. 29, 1641.
In 1666 he became a resident of Long Island in the vicinity of New Utrecht.
On the 13th of July, 1670, he was commissioned Lieutenant of a company of foot in New York, and probably died late in the autumn of that year
