“Grietje (Margaret), baptised October 1, 1671, in New York. She was the wife of Jan Ward of Haverstraw, when they joined the Dutch Church at Tappan, October 24, 1694 [Cole’s History of the Ref’d Church of Tappan]. There they had baptised the following children: Grietje, year 1700; maria, 1702, and Willem, 1704. The census of Orange County taken in 1702 [Cole’s Rockland County. Doc. Hist.
