Biography

Title

Title: Mariner

Dirk Hooglant, a mariner, at sea, was reported missing, unheard from for over a year on Sep 06, 1693,^[1]. He apparently eventually returned home, as he baptised a child in 1698 in New York^[2]. His brother's apparently were also mariners. "Richard Hoogland, of New York, mariner," purchased and doubtless settled on 40 acres of land at Woodbridge, New Jersey. The son Martin Hooglandt (b. 1667) is also mentioned as a mariner. In Carpenter's "Hoagland Family,".
