He left his father’s home at Springtown, near New Paltz, and married Jannetje Freer at Kingston in 1724; “Jacobus’ name does not appear on the records at New Paltz, but in 1738 it is found in the list of foot soldiers of Kingston” (source). He paid £1 in the tax list of 1728. Their children, baptized at Kingston: Antje (1726), Marytje (1728), Jacobus (1732), Zara (1734, m. Pieter VandeBogart), Hester (1737, m.
