  • Notes 
    • Geertruyt Jans Van Lent ( used her Mothers maiden name,Van Gravenweert in church and baptismal records) was, along with her daughter Neeltje, a church member in 1686-7, though Jan Otten was not. She died after 11 Apr 1699, presumbably in New Utrecht, where she had moved at the time of her 1696 second marriage, 6 Aug 1696, to her second cousin, Teunis Janse Lanen Van Pelt.
      In the New Utrecht,Kings co. census 1698, she is listed with 5 Children of her 2nd hus. & his first wife Greitje Jans,both of whom had died.
      "The widow of Jan Otten Van Tuyl died after 11 Apr 1699 when, as "Getruyt Johnse Van Tuyl alias
      Van Pelt," she testified about the will of Dr. Daniel De Hart of New York (New York Co. Wills 5:339-40
      FHL #497,593; abstracted in 'Abstracts of Wills on file in the surrogate's office, City of New York, 17 vols.,NYHS for 1892-1908.) Larry Van der Laan has pointed out that "Tryntien" in the household of " Teunes Van Pelt" in 1698 may actually be amisreading of "Truijtien,"an infrequent diminutive of Geertruy. From the correction of"The Royal Ancestry of Jan Otten Van Tuyl" vol.7 pp1-4 at p.4.
      Her first husband was John Otter
