"Margaret (Grietje) Dircks, born in New Amsterdam about 1632; died before April 1, 1671; almost invariably recorded as Grietje; married first, Jan Hermansen Schut who died about 1652; married second, September 22, 1652, Jan Nagel, from Limberg, a soldier in the employ of the West Indies Company, who, March 11, 1644 first appears in the records of the New Amsterdam Church as a baptismal sponsor. In another record of that church, he is referred to as 'Oosterling,' i.e. a man from the East. He died in 1657. Married third, March 11, 1658 at New Amsterdam Dutch Church, Barent Gerretsen Van Swoll, also recorded as 'Van Vlaesbeck van Swoll,' considered to have been probable son of Gerret Hendricksen who came to New Amsterdam from Swoll in the ship ST JEAN BAPTIST in 1661... Margaret Dircks, as the widow of Jan Nagel and about to marry Barent Gerretszen, appeared before the Orphan's Court in New Amsterdam, May 28, 1658 to satisfy the court regarding the disposition of property to be made to her three children by two prior marriages, viz: Fytie Jans Schutt, then seven years old; Jurriaen Jansen Nagel, then five years old; Styntje Jansen Nagel, then two and one-half years old; all living with her on the north side of Hoogh Street 'opposite the hall.' Margaret, in the presence of her future husband, bonded herself to mortgage the house and lot, and confirmed the agreement to be stated by the guardians." (Andrew J. Provost, Jr., Early Settlers of Bushwick, Long Island, New York and Their Descendants; 1949, Darien, Connecticut; page 95)
