Just came upon a Van Deusen book online (one of those that can't be copied) that disagrees with Jacomyntje's parents that I listed here. "Google" Abraham Van Deusen and Many of His Descendants with Biographical Notes By Charles Best Benson to view. Roughly here are the differences:
Jacomyntje Van Deusen, b Johnstown, NY bp 23 Jan 1739 in Livingston, NY m ca 1760 Abraham Scherp fa Guert Hendrickse Van Deusen mo Elizabeth Ploeg
Children of Abraham & Jacomyntje, all bp Schaghticoke, NY
Jacobus(James)Sherp b 8 June, bp 11 Sep 1766: Catharina Sherp b 27 Jun 1769: Neeltje Sherp b 11 Dec 1770 bp 6 Jun 1771: Sara Sherp b 17 Jun 1773: Andries (Andrew) Sherp b 17 Jun 1773: Jacob Sherp b 4 May 1777
Planning to check for references in this book shortly.--Neal Gardner 18:48, 5 November 2009 (EST)
