Uncertain Family

Andries is presumably the grandchild of Christopher Davis but different sources give him different parents and there are multiple versions of him across the sons of Christopher.

According to his marriage record, Andries was born in Albany. His birth would have occurred before the earliest surviving records from Albany. There are at least three sets of possible parents for him:

• Joris Davidszen and Johanna Lopers
• David Christoffelssen and Rachel Unknown
• Christoffel Davis and Maria Martensen

None of these people appear as witnesses to the baptisms of his children. Salomon Davids, the son of Joris Davidszen, did appear at the baptism of Andries' son David. It is also possible that Andries is not related to any of them.
